Offering exceptional reliability and optimal process ability, BEST Red X®can be employed to brew consistently fiery beers with intense reddish hues. Its full-bodied flavour and attractive, unique colour coupled with easy handling in the brewery, make BEST Red X® the best choice for creating a broad range of new beers, such as red-tinted wheat beers.
This malt is also being used to make highly hopped IPA style beers such as Stone’s Pataskala Red X IPA.

The company has implemented advanced food technology and electronically supported processes that constantly control production, quality and logistics. The malt and grain specialties are sold to a wide range of customers in Germany and abroad, both directly and through certified distributors.
Malt is the backbone to any great beer recipe, ensuring you have the best quality freshest malt can really improve your brews.
Our malt comes from the same maltsers that professional breweries use. All of our malt is purchased whole/uncrushed, which ensures that it retains the correct moisture levels as the maltster intended.
When you order malt from The Malt Miller we offer it crush fresh, or whole so you can crush it fresh at home using your own mill, or fine crushed for Brew In A Bag brewing. When we crush it for you it is done only when ordered, this ensures you can be sure of freshness and also receive the correct mix of big and small particles.
Your can order malt in 25kg sacks where we also offer the option to have it bagged in 5x5kg, by weight starting at 50g, or by building your own recipe on our Recipe Generator by the exact gram.

Quite a lot of online literature relating to this malt suggests it is difficult to convert. I found a single infusion mash of 100% Red-X at 64C converted it perfectly. Haven’t finished experimenting with this one yet, Bestmatlz’ recommendation that it be used at 100% of grain bill leaves it a bit limited, hence the 4 stars at this point.
