Rye Malt
Sub-Base Malt
Gladfield Rye Malt is produced from New Zealdand grown rye corn. Rye does not have an outer husk so it benefits from a finer mill setting than our malted barleys. The rye is malted with the same care as our other malts and modifies beautifully in the kiln.
- Use: Gives colour, spicy flavours and a clean, dry mouth feel.
- Rate: Recommend starting with 10%, can then be increased up to 50% for more rye flavour.
- Shelf life: At least one year when stored properly in dry conditions.
