Base Malts and Specialty Grains

Base malts provide the foundation of fermentable sugars for beer, while specialty grains add color, flavor, and character. From pale 2-row barley to rich crystal malts and roasted grains, these ingredients form the backbone of your beer recipe.

Malt Extracts

Malt extracts are concentrated forms of malted barley that provide fermentable sugars for beer brewing. They come in liquid and dry forms and offer a convenient way to add malt character to your brew without the full mashing process.

Brewing Adjuncts and Sugars

Adjuncts are ingredients that are added to the beer recipe to enhance flavor, aroma, or other characteristics. They can include sugars, spices, fruit, and other flavorings that complement the main ingredients like malt and hops.

Hops

Hops provide bitterness, flavor, and aroma to beer while also acting as a natural preservative. From classic noble hops to modern high-alpha varieties, each hop brings its own unique characteristics to the brewing process.

Brewing Yeast

Yeast is the living organism that converts sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide during fermentation. Different yeast strains produce different flavors, aromas, and alcohol tolerance levels, making yeast selection crucial for beer style and character.
