Toasted Flaked Rice for Brewing
Toasted flaked rice is a mash-ready adjunct for brewers who want the lightening effect of rice with a little more character than standard flaked rice. Because it is already flaked, it can go straight into the mash with your malted grain bill and helps keep the finished beer crisp, dry, and highly drinkable.
The toast brings a subtle grainy, nutty note that can add a little extra depth without making the beer heavy. It is a useful ingredient when you want to dry a recipe out, soften malt richness, or build a lighter-bodied beer that still has a touch of toasted complexity.
Why brewers use it
- Crisp finish: Helps lighten body and keep the beer clean and refreshing.
- Subtle toasted character: Adds a gentle grainy, nutty note compared with plain flaked rice.
- Mash ready: No cereal mash required.
Good fits for this adjunct
- Light lagers and cream ales
- Pre-Prohibition style lagers
- Specialty lagers where you want a dry finish with a little extra malt nuance
Use notes
Toasted flaked rice should be mashed with well-modified base malt so the starches can convert normally. If your recipe includes a high percentage of flakes or other gummy grains, adding rice hulls can help runoff stay smooth.
