Flake Unmalted Barley, 1 lb

Flaked barley adds a rich, smooth, grainy flavor to your beer. It is high in protein and beta glucans. As a result, it will improve the body, head formation and retention of your beer. However, it can also increase the haze potential. You can use it to make English Ales and Stouts. Flaked barley adds a rich, smooth, grainy flavor to your beer.

You can use it to make English Ales and Stouts. Because it has been processed into flaked form, pre-cooking flaked barley is unnecessary to gelatinize its starches. It is ready for you to add directly to your mash to convert its starches to fermentable sugars. Flaked barley can be up to 20 percent of your grist.
