The key components of Briess Flaked Maize include:
- Flaked Maize: This is the main ingredient, which contributes fermentable sugars to your beer without altering its color or body. It also adds a subtle corn taste to the finished product.
- Pregelatinized: This means the maize is ready to use and doesn't require any additional processing before you add it to your brew.
- Yellow Corn Flakes: Using these as an adjunct in your beer-making process results in a beer with a lower color, without lowering the original gravity. It also produces a beer with a mild, less malty flavor, and a drier, more crisp finish.
While primarily used in beer making, Briess Flaked Maize can also be incorporated into your cooking or baking recipes. It can add a unique texture and slight corn flavor to bread, muffins, and other baked goods.
In your beer-making journey, Briess Flaked Maize is a valuable addition. It offers a simple way to add fermentable sugars and a unique flavor profile to your brews. Whether you're a seasoned brewer or just starting out, you'll appreciate the subtle enhancements this product brings to your beers.

CHARACTERISTICS / APPLICATIONS
-
Brewers Yellow Corn Flakes can be used as a cereal adjunct. The flakes can be added to the mash without first using a cereal cooker. The pregelatinized flakes will give a higher yield and a more trouble-free brew than a conventional flaked corn. Also, the corn has been degermed (the oil removed), thus eliminating rancidity.
-
Using Pregelatinized Yellow Corn Flakes as an adjunct produces a lower color in the finished beer without lowering the original gravity.
-
Add directly to the mash with the malts. Do not mill. A single or multiple temperature infusion can be used. Conversion time and lautering time will be normal.
