Gladfield Crystal Malts

As the colder days approach, it's the perfect time to explore Gladfield Malt's range of crystal malt options.


From the light colour of our Gladfield Toffee Malt to more complex choices featuring grains like rye, we've got something for every brew.   


Our Gladfield Black Forest Rye Malt imparts a complex spiciness with a touch of sweetness, reminiscent of hazelnuts and toffee, while also adding body to your beer.


For a rich, intense red hue, our latest creation, Gladfield Redback Wheat Malt, offers a subtle bready sweetness, not only adding body but also improving foam.


If you're looking for something that adds creaminess and a velvety mouthfeel, our Golden Oat Malt is the perfect choice. The thick husk helps with run-off and can smooth out the astringency when used with a high percentage of roasted malts.
