    For Helles, Märzen, wheat beers, light beers, reduced-alcohol and non-alcoholic beers, all golden to amber-colored beer styles.

    Bestmalz Red X Malt

    (bulk product - please select amount on product page)

    BEST Red X® is a malt that has become synonymous with red-tinted beers. As it can make at 100% of the grain bill, there is no need to add any other malt. Thanks to its exceptional process reliability and optimal processability, BEST Red X® can be employed to brew consistently fiery beers with intense reddish hues. The malt was designed for a 12°P beer. To retain the red color in stronger beers, some BEST Pilsen Malt should be added to the grain bill due to the higher wort gravity.

    Base malt for all red and red-tinted beers, amber-colored beers, red-tinted wheat beers, red-tinted Alt, Red Ales, dark beer with a red tinge and many others.

    Recommended Quantities: Up to 100% of total grain bill

    Bairds Heavily Peated Distilling Malt

    (bulk product - please select amount on product page)

    This is a bulk product - one unit equals 1kg.

    Peated malt is used by some malt distillers to impart a smoked or peaty flavour to their spirit. This type of malt may also occasionally be used as a very small inclusion in brewers’ mashes to produce beer with a smoked character.
    Peated malt is made using exactly the same production regime and barley as (plain) distilling malt during kilning. The peat smoke is absorbed onto the surface of the drying malt which, when processed, imparts the smoked peaty flavour to the finished product.
