Flaked Corn, a prized addition to the homebrewer's repertoire, brings simplicity and versatility to the brewing process. Created by pre-gelatinizing corn kernels and rolling them into flat flakes, this brewing adjunct offers unique contributions to your homebrewed creations.

Adding Flaked Corn to your homebrew introduces a light and subtle corn sweetness, imparting a crisp and clean character to the beer. Known for its fermentability, it lightens the body and dials up the alcohol content, making it an excellent choice for a variety of beer styles.

In terms of color, Flaked Corn contributes minimal hue to the beer, ensuring that its impact on the overall appearance is subtle. This makes it an ideal addition when aiming to maintain the beer's clarity and achieve a light color profile.

Flaked Corn finds its place in various beer styles, including:

  • American Light Lagers: A classic choice for creating light and refreshing lagers, Flaked Corn contributes to a dry finish and a smooth mouthfeel.
  • Cream Ales: In cream ales, Flaked Corn adds a touch of sweetness and helps in achieving a crisp and clean profile.
  • American Pilsners: Ideal for imparting a light body and enhancing the overall drinkability of American Pilsners.
  • Adjuncts in Pale Ales and IPAs: Craft brewers often use Flaked Corn in moderate amounts to lighten the body of hop-forward beers.

When incorporating Flaked Corn into your homebrew recipes, it is typically included in the mash alongside malted grains. Its ease of use and ability to contribute fermentable sugars make it a popular choice for homebrewers looking to fine-tune the characteristics of their beer.

Flaked Corn opens up avenues for experimentation, allowing homebrewers to craft beers with a light and refreshing profile. Enhance your brewing adventures with the simplicity and versatility of Flaked Corn, and let your creativity shine in every carefully brewed batch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer grain milling services?

Yes, we provide grain milling services free of charge before shipping. To have your grain milled, please select the "Yes, please mill my grain" option on each grain product before adding it to your cart. We use a high-end, 3-roller mill from Spike, set to a standard gap of 4.5, which achieves optimal cracking while minimizing excessive flour. If you prefer a coarser or finer mill, leave a note in the shopping cart, and we’ll adjust it to your preference.

If we notice that most grains were selected for milling but a few were not, we will assume it was an oversight and mill all of them. If your intention is different, please clarify in the shopping cart notes section.

How do you ensure accuracy when weighing grains?

We take great care to ensure that you receive the correct grains in the exact quantities needed for your recipe. Our multi-step process ensures precision, starting with weighing each grain type individually to an accuracy of 0.08 ounces. After that, we perform a final check by weighing the combined total to confirm accuracy. Your total grain weight will always be slightly over the ordered amount, never under, and always within an acceptable range for even the most detail-oriented brewers (like ourselves).

How are grains packaged before shipment?

We provide a convenient recipe-building tool to streamline the process for you, our team, and the environment. We encourage you to use this tool to build your recipes, ensuring you get exactly what you’ve ordered in the correct quantities. By combining all the grains for a single recipe into one bag, we help speed up your brew day, reduce packaging waste, and save time during order fulfillment. Rest assured, we prioritize accuracy when measuring and packing your grains.
