Description
Built for mash conversion rather than color: cool steeping and a long germination raise the enzyme load, and the kilning is kept restrained to keep it. Aimed at distillers but usable as a very pale brewing base. No numbers are published, so these are enzyme-rich base malt norms, not Maverick’s own analysis.
