Admiral Maltings Grains

Admiral Maltings Grains for Expressive Beer Recipes

Admiral Maltings grains are California craft malts used by brewers who want base and specialty malt with a clear sense of origin, flavor, and process. This collection gathers the Admiral Maltings options carried by SoCal Brewing Supply so you can compare floor-malted barley, wheat, rye, and specialty grains for beer, distilling, and fermentation projects.

Choose malt around the role it plays in the grist. Base malt builds the fermentable foundation, while specialty malt can add color, toast, bread crust, biscuit, honey, roast, body, or grain character depending on the product. Check each product page for the malt style, color, form, and practical usage guidance before building the recipe.

How to use this collection

• Base malt: start with the main fermentable grain for pale ales, lagers, farmhouse beers, strong ales, and malt-forward recipes.
• Specialty malt: use smaller percentages to shape color, body, aroma, and flavor without overpowering the batch.
• Local malt character: Admiral Maltings can be a strong fit when you want a California-grown malt story in the finished beer.
• Recipe planning: compare color, flavor, and process notes before substituting one malt for another.
