Liquid Malt Extract

Liquid Malt Extract provides vital sugars, flavour and aroma to form the perfect base for individual extract brewing recipes. It also allows you to increase alcohol, while giving your beer superior body and mouthfeel.

We prefer the options available that have been cold filled into a pouch, instead of a can, to retain all the delicate flavours and aromas which are lost using the traditional canning process.

Use as a base for your own extract beer recipes or as an enhancer to boost alcohol, body and flavour to any extract or all grain recipe.

And remember, we’re brewers too and we love to talk brewing. If you have any questions, simply want to talk brewing or share your latest creation drop us an email to brew@homebrewrepublic.co.nz.

From Russell, Our Chief Kit Brewer

I have always said that kit brewing leaves plenty of room for brewers to experiment with process and ingredients. And liquid malt extracts are a perfect example of a way to completely change the flavour, texture and body of a beer.

I find it hard to go past my favourite ‘recipes’ so every third brew I try and either do something new or experiment with process or ingredients to see if I can discover something. 

Amber ales, made by combining your favourite ale with an amber liquid malt extract is a great option and for my lagers I find it hard to go past the light liquid malt extract.

Cheers, Russell
