Found this in the health food section of Coles 500g jars. Says it contains complex carbohydrates mostly maltose and some glucose.

Wonder if anybody has used it to make an oriental type brew.

I have chucked a jar into a Coopers Dark Ale along with DME just wondering if I can taste anything different.

Sounds good. How much?
 
I've often used Maltose from the Chinese supermarket near my work. 500g for $1.99 :eek: :eek: :eek: - it doesn't completely ferment out and gives a hint of syrup / sweetness that I enjoy especially with some florally hops. Currently have a Kiwi hoppy blonde in primary with a tub of the stuff in it.
It really only goes in a blonde or lager international style, wouldn't put it in anything else.

Edit: second thoughts yes it might actually go well in a N. English brown ale like Newky Broon where a bit of sweetness is appropriate :)

If you look closely it's called "Greek Wall" - probably to avoid being sued by the ute mob. Love it.
