Bestmalz Chit Malt 2-3 EBC is short-germinated chit malt — protein-rich foam and body booster. Malted by Bestmalz in Heidelberg, Germany, and the right choice for head retention and body in any style at 5–10%.

Use it at 5-10% of the grain bill. All-grain brewers mash it with the base malt; extract brewers steep it in a grain bag. Order it whole, or choose Crushed and we mill it fresh at 1 mm right before shipping.
