IREKS Sour Malt contains up to 4.5 % natural lactic acid, the reason why it is very well suited for adjusting the pH value of the mash. This benefits the enzyme activities and thus increases the brewhouse yield. The optimum quantity of addition has to be determined by every brewery individually, as this depends on many factors such as, for example, the quality of the water for brewing, the mashing programme and the grist, etc.

For first-class malt, you need two things: expertise in the malting trade and the best grain. Over 160 years of experience combined with state-of-the-art technology make IREKS a specialist in malt production.
