Frequently asked questions about BEST Caramel Rye Malt
How much BEST Caramel Rye Malt should I use?
Bestmalz states that BEST Caramel Rye Malt can make up to 15% of the grist. It suits multigrain beers, top-fermented beers and rye IPA.
Can the rye malt cause lautering problems?
Yes, in large amounts. Because rye has no husk and a high mucilage content, Bestmalz advises against a proportion above 50%. At the recommended level of up to 15%, this is normally not a problem.
Can I get the malt crushed?
Yes. You choose whole or crushed malt when you order. Malt keeps best uncrushed, so if you have your own mill, crush it just before brewing.
