Malted Oats

Malted Oats are a versatile specialty grain designed to enhance body, haze stability, and foam retention in a wide variety of beer styles. With naturally activated enzymes, Malted Oats can be used directly in the mash to assist in converting starches into fermentable sugars. Their low color contribution allows brewers to increase texture and mouthfeel without significantly impacting the appearance of the finished beer. The presence of a natural husk helps improve lautering performance and reduces the risk of a stuck mash. Malted Oats contribute a soft, creamy mouthfeel with subtle flavors of oatmeal, fresh grain, and light sweetness, making them an excellent choice for New England IPAs, stouts, porters, pale ales, and other styles where smooth texture and fullness are desired.
