Malt Extracts


Malt Extracts; Liquid
Malt extracts are the heart of the beer for most brewers. This is where you get the basic flavor of beer. Without a good extract, and enough of it to give the beer body and flavor, you can’t make a good beer. We carry a wide range of extracts and have a very rapid turnover so our stock is always fresh. If you don’t see something you want, we can probably get it for you in several days’ time. Cases of 6, including mixed cases, qualify for a 10% discount. See Bulk Items.

Malt Extracts; Dry
Spray-dried malt is a form of malt extract in which most of the moisture has been removed. It is similar to liquid malt extracts except that 3 lb. of dry malt is the equivalent of 3.3 lb. of liquid malt extract. For the most part, they may be used interchangeably. If your recipe calls for a 3.3 lb can of a light malt extract, you may substitute 3 lb. of dry malt instead. Additionally, many brewers will augment the can of extract they use by adding 1 or 2 lb., or even more, of dry malt to increase the amount of malt used in a recipe. We recommend this. A rule of thumb goes: Use 1 lb. malt for every 1 gallon of beer produced- to make a medium bodied beer. Thus you should use at least 5 lb. of malt in 5 gallons of beer. To make yet richer and fuller-bodied beer, use more than 5 lb. of total malt in the recipe. Some recipes may use as much as 12 or more lb. of malt. Whew! Rich and high in alcohol indeed! We sell several brands of dry malt, though the one we mainly stock is the Breiss.

Breiss Dry Malt Extract
