Description

Floor-malted two-row Genie built for the still rather than the lauter: 174 °L of diastatic power and 207 mg/L FAN give room to run corn, rye or wheat up to roughly 80 per cent of the mash. Protein modification is low by brewing standards, which the maltster notes is deliberate and not a defect.
