Malt Extracts
WindRiver Malt Extracts-
Malt extract is an extract from barley malt. In basic terms it is concentrated unfermented beer. First the grains are "mashed" which converts the starches in the barley grain into sugar. Then this "wort" is reduced to a thick syrup by boiling it under a vacuum This then leaves a liquid that has the consistency of molasses. We are proud to offer the best in malt extracts, foreign or domestic. We think you will find a great improvement in these extracts over canned malt extracts. These extracts can be used in place of canned malt extracts in all recipes. All of our extracts come unhopped. We believe that the best way to use hops when making beer is by using pelletized hops for bittering instead of using hopped extracts. You will get a better flavor and the amounts can be adjusted for taste.

| Important note: If you are going to store your beer kits or ingredients more than a week or two, keep them refrigerated. Keeping your kits in the refrigerator will ensure that all of the ingredients stay their freshest. |
Dry Malt Extract- The drying process forces most of the water out of the extract leaving only the solids behind, making it 20% more concentrated than liquid. (i.e. 3 lbs. of dry malt extract will yield 20% more than 3 lbs of liquid malt extract.) Available in 3 lb packages.
