Hello All
Can anyone comment on the flavor and body contribution differences
between flaked rye and rye malt? I'm gearing up to make another rye
pale ale - I've been using flaked rye (my LHBS carries it) but I'm
thinking of trying rye malt, just for yucks. How is it different?
Thanks - JB

D'oh! google search:
"The flaked rye adds more of a grainy flavor than does rye malt. In
the
batches I have brewed, those with rye flakes had a fuller mouthfeel
(similar
to an oatmeal stout), and those brewed with rye malt were similar to
wheat beers."

I find rye malt has a much more upfront spicy taste to it (which I
prefer) than flaked rye.
