Maris Otter Pale
Maris Otter Pale
An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk. This malt delivers predictable brewhouse performance with modest, yet consistent extracts. Brewers can expect good runoffs with clear wort.

Cara-Pils® Malt (Organic); Briess
USDA Organic, 100% Organic. No flavor or color. Characteristics & Applications: • The endosperm is completely glassy and will appear to be darker than standard Brewers Malt. • Carapils® is a very unique dextrine-style malt that adds body, foam retention, and beer stability without influencing color or flavor. • Use to upgrade all types of beer, including light colored beers. • The non-fermentables in Carapils® are very advantageous in balancing body and flavor of dark colored beers. • May be used with or without other specialty malts. • Low usage of 1-5% will help achieve desired results. • Produced from AMBA/BMBRI recommended 2-Row Malting Barley varieties.

Oats (Pregelatinized Flakes); Briess
Oats (Pregelatinized Flakes); Briess
Characteristics & Applications: • Pregelatinized Oat Flakes have been produced specifically for brewing, developing characteristics necessary for easy and efficient use in a brewhouse. The process of gelatinizing makes the starches readily soluble and digestible by the naturally occurring enzymes in barley malt. This allows the flakes to be incorporated directly into the mash with other grains. • Because flakes have a large surface area and are pre-cooked, they hydrate and disintegrate quickly. Filtration time will be normal. • There is no need to mill Oat Flakes. However, they can be put through the mill if that is the easiest means of adding them to the mash. • Oat Flakes have been dehulled before being cooked and flaked. Although the flakes are readily attacked by the malt enzymes, yield will be slightly lower than with other Pregelatinized Flakes. • Oat Flakes have a very distinctive “sticky” mouthfeel which is noticeable even when used in small amounts. • Use 5-25% of the total grist for an Oatmeal Stout. • Use a small percentage in Belgian Wit Beers.

Isolated from English stock ale, this wild yeast produces a mild “Brett” character with overtones of tropical fruit and pineapple.
