Frequently asked questions about Maris Otter Pale Ale Malt
What is the difference between Maris Otter and ordinary pale ale malt?
Maris Otter is a heritage English barley variety known for a rich, sweet and slightly nutty malt flavour. Thomas Fawcett floor malts it the traditional way.
Which beers is Maris Otter suited to?
It suits every English beer style, such as bitter, mild, porter and stout, and is often used in pale ale and IPA when you want a full malt character.
What mash temperature suits Maris Otter?
The malt is well modified and suitable for single-temperature infusion mashing. A typical mash temperature is 63–68°C, and a lower temperature gives a drier beer.
Can I get the malt crushed?
Yes. Choose crushed malt when you order. Brewshop stores the malt uncrushed and only crushes it when you order, because crushed malt starts to lose flavour and aroma.
