BEST Diastatic Wheat Malt

BEST Diastatic Wheat Malt can be used as a basic ingredient in the baking and food industry. It has a high protein content coupled with very strong enzymatic activity. The high amylase activity is optimal for the breakdown and dissolution of starch. This is particularly apparent in the processing of raw fruit and improves flour quality where enzyme potential is too low.
