    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.

  5. Bestmalz Red X Malt
    $6.50/kg

    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

    EBC: 28-32

  6. Gladfield Chit Barley Malt
    $6.50/kg

    Gladfield Chit Barley Malt

    (bulk product - please select amount on product page)

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

    Gladfield made Chit Malt upon request from clients who were keen to use this product to improve the body and foam in their beers, particularly sour beers.

    A great malt to achieve superior foam stability. In our opinion a must malt to use in Sour beers, Saisons, Hazy beers and Low alcohol beers.
    Flaked barley is no longer available and Chit malt is a direct replacement.

  7. Wyeast - Belgian Abbey Style Ale - Strain 1214 Wyeast - Belgian Abbey Style Ale - Strain 1214
    $25.00

    Wyeast - Belgian Abbey Style Ale - Strain 1214

    Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Profile: A widely used and alcohol tolerant Abbey style yeast that is suitable for a variety of Belgian style ales. This strain produces a nice ester profile as well as slightly spicy alcohol notes. It can be slow to start; however, it attenuates well.

  8. Wyeast - Belgian Strong Ale - Strain 1388 Wyeast - Belgian Strong Ale - Strain 1388
    $25.00

    Wyeast - Belgian Strong Ale - Strain 1388

    Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus

    Profile: The classic choice for brewing golden strong ales. This alcohol tolerant strain will produce a complex ester profile balanced nicely with subtle phenolics. Malt flavors and aromas will remain even with a well attenuated dry, tart finish. This strain is prone to stalling at approximately 1.035; racking or slight aeration will encourage it to finish fermentation.

  9. Wyeast - Belgian Abbey Style Ale II - Strain 1762 Wyeast - Belgian Abbey Style Ale II - Strain 1762
    $25.00

    Wyeast - Belgian Abbey Style Ale II - Strain 1762

    Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Profile: An excellent yeast strain for use in Belgian dark strong ales. This strain has a relatively “clean profile” which allows a rich malt and distinctive ethanol character to shine. Delicate dried fruit esters can be produced when used at higher fermentation temperatures or in a high gravity wort.

  10. Wyeast - Bavarian Wheat - Strain 3638 Wyeast - Bavarian Wheat - Strain 3638
    $25.00

    Wyeast - Bavarian Wheat - Strain 3638

    Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Profile: A complex alternative to the standard German wheat strain profile. This strain produces apple, pear, and plum esters in addition to the dominant banana character. The esters are complemented nicely by clove and subtle vanilla phenolics. The balance can be manipulated towards ester production through increasing fermentation temperature, increasing the wort density, and decreasing the pitch rate. Over pitching can result in a near complete loss of banana character. Decreasing the ester level will allow a higher clove character to be perceived. Sulfur is commonly produced, but will dissipate with conditioning. This strain is very powdery and will remain in suspension for an extended amount of time following attenuation. This is true top cropping yeast and requires fermentor headspace of 33%.
