Application Tip:

Typically added directly to the mash and commonly utilized in small quantities in English Bitters and Pale Ales. For American and Mexican lagers, Flaked Barley may be specified in the malt bill, ranging from 10-40% of the grist. For clones of commercially produced beers, specify the adjunct in clones of Negro Modelo at 12% of the grist and 30% for a tasty version of Pacifico.

For a pre prohibition version of American Cream Ale, specify a recipe with 71.2% U.S. 2-Row Malt, 17% U.S. Flaked Maize, 8% U.S. 6 - Row Malt, 3.8% Acid Malt. The Acid Malt is merely added to lower acidity in the mash. Taking a pH reading of the mash should be performed before adding acid malt. Otherwise eliminate the acid malt and add in more 2-row malt in its stead.
