Gladfield Crystal Malts are made in a specialized roasting drum. The emphases are on sweetness and evenness of crystallization. The evenness of colour is achieved by using the latest technology in malt roasting and heat recirculation. Crystal malts can be used in varying amounts and intensities to an array of beer styles to add colour, flavour, and aroma to the beer. It is important to use crystal malts fresh to get the best results. Moisture (%) Max <3.5 Extract (Dry) Range 76-78% Colour Range EBC 175 - 225 Gladfield Malt's recommended malt substitutions:
