Distillers Malt - 1kg

A 1kg bag of distillers malt - a pale, high-enzyme barley malt for grain washes. The small size is ideal for a trial mash or for topping up the enzyme power of a grain bill.

Key features

• Pale barley malt chosen for distilling washes
• High enzyme content (diastatic power) to convert starches into fermentable sugars, including from adjuncts like corn, rye or wheat
• Clean, mild cereal character that lets your yeast and any peated or speciality malts come through
• Highly fermentable, so suits strong washes

Specs

• Weight: 1kg
• Type: pale barley malt for distilling

How to use

Mash it as your base grain, on its own or with other grains, then ferment the strained wort with a distiller's yeast. Add distiller's enzymes if you use a high share of unmalted adjuncts.

Who it's for

Distillers trying their first all-grain wash, or anyone adding a little extra enzyme power to a mash.
