How are there this many bakers out there that are clueless about adding a small percentage of some sort of diastatic malt to your sourdough ferments? The enzymes munch the big starches down into smaller sugars which unlocks flavors along the way that would otherwise remain hidden in potential. This is particularly important for rye doughs. This is quite an old practice, it’s been done for ages.🤷♂️

As mentioned already, home brewing shops have an abundance of speciality grains. Being an ex baker and current home brew hobbyist myself I’d love to see the difference some 5% additions would make to the loaf, thanks for the videos, I’ve adopted your method for my own sourdough.

@henrygardiner7740 Жыл бұрын
Oh, YES! Bread with a malted grain addition is awesome! Home brew shops have malted barley and diastatic malt powder a-plenty. But I wanted untoasted malt with the chaff removed. So I decided to malt (sprout and dry) my own. I've had trouble in the shops in Denver sourcing hulled malted barley that would sprout. The solution was to use the whole grain wheat I have on hand. Worked splendidly. No need to clean the grain further!! A few days of sprouting the wheat berries lead them to the dehydrator for drying but not toasting. Roughed-up the dried malt to remove the sprouts and then followed your steps to milll to a flour and add to the recipe. I like the malted grain addition better than the malt syrup alternative. Flavor is less beer-like and higher on the palate. Extra malted wheat flour stores in the fridge in an airtight container. Thanks so much for your inspiration! My baking success has made new highs and greatly satisfies the family. Keep experimenting!

You should add some Carared or some other source of diastatic malt to your dough in addition to your choco malt and prepare for a massive difference in your loaf.👌

Baked the bread today, really like the hint of barley, not overpowering. The brewery milled it for me but I ended up grounding a little finer. I found Malt Barley syrup is sweeter good for soft loaf and crushed barley more suitable for crusty loaf. Unfortunately, my bread turned out quite flat only 2.5" vs the usual 4"+, tiny ear but good even crumbs. When turned the dough out, it was not holding shape, exact same amount of water. Also indoor temperature is 20C. Took long time to proof, might need to increase starter or use warm water to bring the dough temperature up.

@cydrych The malt needs to still have its diastatic enzyme power- your powdered malt doesn’t have that ability any longer. You’ll get some tasty flavor from that powdered, concentrated malt but you won’t get the breakout of hidden flavors and sugars that are otherwise hidden in potential your dough if you don’t give it a touch of extra enzyme action. Good luck!
