Fine-tune your beer with adjuncts and flaked grains

Adjuncts and flaked grains are used alongside base and specialty malts to change the characteristics of a beer. Depending on the ingredient, they can improve body, create a smoother mouthfeel, increase head retention, lighten the body or alter fermentability.

They are particularly useful when developing recipes where you want to achieve a specific texture or flavour without relying solely on traditional malted barley.

Wheat

Best Wheat can be used to increase head retention, body and mouthfeel while contributing a subtle grain character. Wheat is commonly used in wheat beers, pale ales, IPAs and other styles where a fuller foam and smoother texture are desired.

It can also be used in smaller quantities to improve the overall structure of a beer without significantly changing its flavour.

Rolled Jumbo Oats

Rolled Jumbo Oats are a popular choice for creating a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Oats are particularly associated with modern hazy and New England-style IPAs, as well as stouts and other beers where a fuller texture is desired.

They can help produce:


  • Creamier mouthfeel

  • Increased body

  • Softer texture

  • Fuller beer character

Flaked Maize

Loughrans Flaked Maize is a versatile brewing adjunct that can be used to create a lighter-bodied, smoother and more highly fermentable beer. Flaked maize is traditionally associated with lighter lagers and American-style beers, where it can help produce a clean and crisp finished beer.

It can also be useful when brewers want to alter the fermentability of a recipe without adding additional malt flavour.

Why use brewing adjuncts?

Adjuncts give brewers greater control over the final characteristics of their beer. Depending on the ingredient and quantity used, they can be used to:


  • Increase or reduce body

  • Improve head retention

  • Create a smoother mouthfeel

  • Increase fermentability

  • Lighten the finished beer

  • Add subtle grain character

  • Develop modern beer styles
