Broader range of steeping and mashing malts

Take a look at the Fawcett page on the maltcraft site

As well as English floor malted maris otter and halcyon we now have access to oat malt, rye malt, crystal wheat, crystal rye, amber and brown malt, roasted wheat and roasted rye malt. This is terrific news.

Reg,
Where you mention "crystal wheat & crystal rye" does that mean that they are used the same as crystal malt i.e. steeped??

 

[RegBadgery]

Yes, crystal malts such as crystal wheat and crystal rye can be steeped. They can also be added to a mash. The newly available roasted rye, wheat , amber and brown can also be steeped in the same way we steep roasted barley and chocolate. Great flavour choices for extract and mash brewers.

cheers

If people are interested in trying some of these newly available malts - in case your local hbs isn't able to obtain them - according to the ESB website, they stock the full range of Fawcett products.
