If you want a ready malt blend for a recipe, order each malt in whole 100 g units and write the blend in the comment field at checkout, for example "Malt blend: 5.4 kg pale ale malt, 270 g Cara Blond".

Frequently asked questions about BEST Rye Malt
How much BEST Rye Malt can I use?
You can use up to 50% of the grain bill. The malt suits rye beer, rye IPA, multigrain beers and top-fermented beers.
Why should I not use more than 50% rye malt?
Rye has no husk and contains a lot of gums (pentosans). With a lot of rye the mash becomes thick and hard to lauter. Bestmalz therefore recommends a maximum of 50% of the grain bill.
How long does BEST Rye Malt keep?
Bestmalz states at least 24 months for whole malt stored cool (max. 20°C) and dry (max. 35% relative humidity). Crushed malt keeps for 12 months. If you are not brewing right away, choose whole malt and crush it just before brewing.
