Flaked Barley
Harraway’s Flaked Barley is produced much like their rolled oats. Raw barley is steamed and then pressed through a pair of rollers. Flaked barley can also be added directly to the mash with base and speciality malts.
Flaked barley also performs well as an adjunct in German style pilsners, as it can produce lighter colour without lowering the gravity.
Oat Hulls
Also known as: Husks
Oat Hulls for New Zealand. Oat hulls are the outer shell layer of the oat. Inedible and normally removed from the oat, when used for brewing the hulls improve the filter bed of the mash to decrease the likelihood of a stuck mash. Oat hulls are non-fermentable and provide bulk, helping prevent the mash from settling and becoming stuck during the sparge. Hulls are generally used when making wheat or rye beers.
Please note: Gladfield does not produce this product. Only available to order in New Zealand
Packaging options: 8kg bag.
Shelf life: At least one year when stored properly in dry conditions.
Raw Grains
Gladfield Malt can provide malting quality raw barley, wheat, rye, oats, and spelt, on request . All our grains are sourced from farms located in Canterbury, New Zealand.
The grain is screened to remove any chaff and small grains and is perfect for adding something unique to a beer or a whisky. Raw grains will also bring some unfermentable carbohydrates to the brew when unmalted, giving more body to the finished beer.
Please note: Raw grains are only available to orders within New Zealand.
Packaging options: 25kg bag (New Zealand only)
Shelf life: At least one year when stored properly in dry conditions.
Rolled Oats
Harraway’s Jumbo Oats are a versatile adjunct that we offer alongside our malt range for our customers' convenience. These wholegrain oats have been rolled into flakes that can then be added directly to the mash with base and speciality malts. Rolled oats are also effective for adding body to low alcohol beers.
OUR VISION & MISSION
“To be the trusted brand of choice, with happy customers who love our premium and accessible malt products.”
