  • Subtle sweetness with bold grainy aromas
  • Balanced malty bread notes
  • Can be used on its own or blended with lager malt for fuller styles

Crisp typical specification

  • Type: low-colour base malt, supplied crushed
  • Colour: 2.8-3.9 EBC
  • Usage: up to 100% of the grist
  • Extract: 80.6%
  • Moisture: 4.5% max

How to use

Mash as you would standard Maris Otter. Because it is much paler (standard Maris Otter is 5.5-7.2 EBC), it lets hop character and a light colour come through in blondes and pale ales.

Try it with bright hops such as Cascade and a clean yeast like Safale US-05. For darker British ales, choose standard Crisp Crushed Maris Otter 25kg.

Compare this against every malt we stock or see all our 25kg crushed base malts.
