Makes great malted milk

It's hard to make a good malted milk with organic ingredients and the hardest one to find if the malt. This is a great source of organic malt.

This Bud’s for you.

I use DME as a yeast starter. The Briess Organic Light DME did not disappoint. The dry yeast started bubbling quickly and emitted the smell of rising bread. When applied to the wort the next day, the magic began!

Awesome

Made a really flavorful pale ale with this and some organic liquid malt extract from this site. Some Apollo hops and brewers gold hops in there too. Lots of drinkability

It is so awesome that there are some organic choices available from Northern Brewer. These are a great replacement for the normal GMO equivalent.

Best Organic Extract product available

This is the best organic extract out there. 3 pounds gives me right around 1.048 for 3 gallons of wort. This is my go to base for all of my beers.

gotta love organic DME

I'm not going to claim that my beer turns out better because I use organic DME over conventional, but I sure feel better about it. Even if you aren't concerned about ingesting non-organic substances, I would recommend buying this product simply to support companies trying to do the right thing by the planet -- barley grown without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, etc. is better for everybody. It's fairly comparable in cost, so it is worth it in my opinion.

Excellent product

I've been an extract/specialty grain brewer for more than 20 years. I used to use extract light DME. I switched to Briess organic light because it was organic. I haven't noticed any difference in any of the 20 or so styles that I brew (all ales).

very consistent

I use this DME for most of all my beers. 6lbs gives me 1.051 five gallon wort every time. I adjust color and flavor by steeping different blends of organic crystal malts.
