Chit Malt 1 oz (German - Best Malz)

$0.19

Chit malt is an undermodified barley malt characterized by a very high level of high-molecular protein compared to a Pilsen malt, making it more suitable for compensating strongly dissolved malts and improving the foam quality and head retention. The malt has a particularly high level of inherent starter enzymes, which contribute significantly to improving the conversion of starch, thus increasing the yield. 

Use as up to 15% of grist.

Good for use in Hazy IPA's and Grisette brews, and for all beer styles to optimize foam stability.

1.2-1.6 Lovibond

This German Chit malt is sold in 1 oz increments. We also sell 55 lb German Chit malt sacks.
