How to use

Weigh out the amount your kit or recipe asks for in place of sugar, stir it into hot water until there are no lumps, then add it to the fermenter. Reseal the bag straight away - dried malt soaks up moisture from the air and turns sticky.

Who it's for

Kit brewers making bitters, best bitters and ambers, and extract brewers who want a mid-coloured base. It suits kits like Coopers English Bitter and Geordie Bitter. For a paler beer choose HS Light Dried Malt Extract, or browse the full Spray Malt & Enhancers range.
