Grain Of The Week 26/7/10- Biscuit Malt

[mje1980]

Great timing. I just tapped a keg of biscuit bitter. This malt is my all time fave now, its great.

Hmmm biscuit in a red, mmmmmmmmm!

Anyone used this malt in an extract recipe, steeped for 30 mins @ around 70 degrees C without any starch haze or other unwanted characteristics in the resulting beer?

Can't say that I have, Boagsy, but I'm pretty sure this grain has no enzymes so it needs to be mashed/steeped with some base malt if you're hoping for any conversion.

I was curious about the flavour contribution, if it's possible without any noticeable residual starches in an all extract recipe.
