FROM CRISP :
We take English spring barley with a slightly higher protein than our Best Ale Malt and the subsequent low temperature kilning produces Lager Malt with a sweet but not “malty” character.
Lager malts from continental Europe tend to be higher in protein, have less modification and a lower SNR which means the malt then requires processing in a rising temperature programme. This is the reason that decoction and heated mash vessels are the dominant brewing system on the continent.
However, Lager has been optimised for British brewing and so it works comfortably in a UK single strike temperature brewery or on a continental system.

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.
