Montana Craft Malt Dextrin Malt 55 lb Crushed

Montana Craft Malt Dextrin Malt is a specialty malt designed to enhance body, mouthfeel, and foam stability without significantly affecting color or flavor. Produced from premium barley grown in the Northern Rockies region, this malt contributes unfermentable dextrins that help create fuller-bodied beers with improved head retention and a smoother drinking experience.

With a color rating of approximately 1.5° Lovibond, Montana Craft Malt Dextrin Malt adds little to no color contribution, making it an excellent choice for brewers seeking improved texture and foam performance while maintaining the intended appearance of their beer. It provides subtle grain sweetness and increased body without adding noticeable malt flavor or residual sweetness.

Dextrin Malt is commonly used in Pale Ales, IPAs, Blonde Ales, Cream Ales, lagers, wheat beers, and low-alcohol beer styles where additional mouthfeel and head retention are desired. It is especially beneficial in highly attenuated beers or hop-forward styles that can sometimes finish too dry or thin.

During the brewing process, the dextrins contributed by this malt remain largely unfermented, helping to improve body and support a lasting, creamy foam. This creates a more balanced beer with enhanced texture and visual appeal while preserving the character of the base malt, hops, and yeast.

Typical usage ranges from 3% - 10% of the grain bill, though additions up to 15% may be used when maximum body and foam retention are desired. It pairs well with virtually any base malt and can be incorporated into both traditional and modern beer styles.

Montana Craft Malt Dextrin Malt offers brewers a simple and effective way to improve mouthfeel, head retention, and overall beer quality while maintaining a clean flavor profile and consistent brewing performance.
