FROM CRISP :
Crystal and Cara Malts are so named for the caramelisation and crystallization of the sugars present in the barley kernel. We take green malt from germination and by applying heat while maintaining the moisture content we are able to liquify the endosperm of the barley, transforming the starch into sugars. Heat is then applied and the caramelisation begins.
In the case of Crystal Malts, when the endosperm cools, sugar crystals are formed. When you cut across the grain the glassy sheen of crystalized sugar can be seen.
Each Crystal Malt imparts a clean, nutty, caramel-like sweetness to your beers. Extra Light Crystal gives a subtle caramel flavour.

Why buy malt from us?
- All our malts are supplied to us whole (uncrushed), directly from Crisp so that we can mill your malt fresh in house.
- Grain is milled to order, on the day of dispatch.
- Same day dispatch if ordered before midday.
- We use a German made malt mill to crush your malt with precision.
- We do regular grist analysis to check our crush is the perfect balance between too fine and too coarse.
- We order malt by the pallet load. Due to limited storage space we can't store lots at a time - this ensures a quick throughput so your malt doesn't spend months sat on our shelves.
