Liquid Malt Extract
Pale

base for many beer styles. Provides a light pale
color and soft malt flavor.

base for many beer styles, expecially pilsners and
lagers. Provides a straw to golden color and very
soft malt flavor.
Amber
American & British. Made from pale and crystal
malts. Provides a moderate amber color, a pronounced
nuttiness, and good malt flavor when used on its
own, or can be made lighter by blending with pale
malt extract. Great for amber ales, altbiers, stouts,
and porters.
Dark
American & British. Made from pale, crystal,
and black malts. Provides a dark brown to black
color with a flavor similar to amber with a hint
of roast. Perfect for porters and stouts.
Wheat
American & British. Made from 60% wheat malt
and 40% pale malt. Provides a a light pale color
with soft malt flavor. Helps head retention. Perfect
for German wheat beers and Belgian Witbiers, but
can be used in many styles.
Dry Malt Extract
Muntons Extra Light
English. Highly fermentable. Provides the lightest
color of all the liquid and dry malt extracts currently
available to the homebrewer. Makes smooth beers
with soft, high quality malt flavors. Great for
styles that require a light, clear color, such as
pilsners and lagers.

Adjuncts
Glucose
0 Lovibond. This is our house "adjunct".
Liquid glucose is nearly 100% fermentable and can
be handled just like liquid malt extract. Lightens
beers while adding alcohol. Great for light colored
Belgian ales and American lagers.
Dextrose
0 Lovibond. This is our house "priming sugar".
While dextrose is most known in brewing for being
used as the sugar used in bottling conditioning,
it can also make a good adjunct in brewing when
used in small amounts. It is 100% fermentable. Available
in prepackaged 5oz. priming sugar packets or in
bulk by the pound.
Belgian Candi Sugar
0 - 75 lovibond. Refined sugar-beet sugar. 100%
fermentable. We carry clear and amber candi sugar.
Excellent for all belgian styles.
Honey
New Jersey. We carry award winning honey from Zenja
Farms. We always have wildflower honey in stock,
but we can order many other varieties with a quick
turn-around time. Available in 1 lb. and 5 lbs.
jars. Bulk orders available.
Maltodextrin
A corn-based, non-fermentable sugar that adds body
to beer. When used properly, maltodextrin can dramatically
improve the mouthfeel of malt extract homebrews,
giving some of the qualities of all-grain beer.
Lactose
A milk-based, non-fermentable sugar that adds creamy
body and a slight tang to beer. Best used with thicker
stouts.
Rice Syrup Solids
A rice-based, fermentable sugar that lightens body
and color in beer. Has a very faint rice aroma and
flavor. Best used with American and Japanese lagers.
