Chit malt is a versatile pale base malt with a clean, slightly sweet flavour and subtle biscuit and honey notes. At around 2-3°L it gives a golden-straw to pale gold colour, and its good diastatic power makes it efficient for starch conversion - use it as up to 100% of the grain bill or blended with specialty grains. Supplied crushed and ready to mash.
- Flavour: clean, lightly sweet, biscuit, honey
- Colour: 2-3°L, golden straw to pale gold
- Great in: Scottish ales, pale ales, IPAs, English ales and hazy IPAs
Pairs well with citrus or fruity hops and with Crystal, Caramel or Vienna malts for added depth.
