About this item
- BARLEY MALT POWDER: This Malted Barley Powder is 100% pure diastatic malted barley flour which has been milled from the whole malted barley kernel - the husk, endosperm and germ.
- 100% PURE AND ORGANIC: Made from high quality, organic whole malted barley with absolutely no additives, dextrose, sugar, or fillers.
- NATURAL DOUGH CONDITIONER: Diastatic Malt Flours contain naturally occurring active enzymes that function as natural dough conditioners in yeast fermented dough. It is used for promoting a strong rise and enhancing appealing crust browning.
- EASY TO USE: Mix with dry ingredients and use only a small amount. Follow recipe or use about 1/2 tsp per 3 cups of flour. In Baker’s Percentage terms, do not use more than .5% by weight of total flour.
- PROFESSIONAL BAKERS BEST KEPT SECRET: Professional bakers also find it useful for providing uniform and improved fermentation. Enzymatic digestion of starch increases fermentation, relaxes the dough, decreases proofing time, increases volume, enhances browning and softens the crumb.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2023Excellent product. It has no discernible flavor. I used 1/2 teaspoon malt powder for every 3 cups flour. It made my cinnamon rolls rise so nicely and the second rise was big too! AND it cuts the rising time. My yeast bread goods look like they came from a bakery. I've bought diastatic malt directly from Breadtopia in the past, but this time I snagged it on Amazon which was very convenient for me. I highly recommend this product and this company overall. They've great products for bread makers.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2024I purchased this product by mistake, for a recipe that called for non-diastatic malt powder. It sat on the shelf unused. Then I discovered that you can easily convert diastatic malt to the non-diastatic version. You simply spread the malt powder on a baking sheet and heat it for five minutes at 350 degrees F to inactivate the enzymes. I'm glad I made the mistake, since now I can use it for either type of recipe. The bagels I made weren't perfect, but that was the fault of the cook, not the malt flour. They tasted great. I may need a little practice, but look forward to using this more.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2023This malt is fresh and potent. Good for a year according to the date. You can add malt up to 1% of total flour weight to increase flavor. That would be 5 grams if you have a total of 500 grams of flour for the loaf. After all, sourdough is all about flavor! Malt really works. Breadtopia is a great and reliable company, with all the important hardware, flour and good tips and recipes for serious bakers. Check out their site for tons of inspiration.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2024I bought this for my husband so that his wonderful bread could be improved. We immediately noticed a difference in the consistency of the crumb, the height of the loaf, and the freshness lasting longer. (Although it is normally consumed quickly anyway.) I would definitely recommend.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2021I make buttermilk pancakes fkr my 5 year old grand daughter. She told me her mama pancakes are almost as good so she told me i had to up my game. I used this and sourcream and got 2 thumbs up. It does add sweetness and complexity of flavor so 2 thumbs up
- Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2024This brand is new to me. I chose it because I don't like paying for fillers, and this one is the most lean product on the market, per their site. The purpose of DM is to increase rise, shorten rise time, and increase browning, especially for whole wheat, which tends to be pale when done, as well as lifting heavier dough like rye. Fillers, such as ADDED flours and ADDED sugars, skew the flavors, ratios and are a waste of money. I can add these myself if applicable.
On the negative side, the product labeling is on the light side, making one wonder why.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2024I stumbled upon Breadtopia Organic Diastatic Malt Powder while searching for ways to elevate my homemade bread, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer! This malt powder has taken my bread to a whole new level of flavor and texture.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2023Having been a follower of Breadtopia since almost it's inception, buying from them as well, was excited to see this Product and bought it "finally". I wasn't sure how and if it would make a difference for me as I am not the greatest at Breadmaking. Yes I do make edible loaves, and am told it's delicious, but never will taste like anything store bought. Yesterday I tried a Basic Bread Recipe that was in an old Magazine I had saved, for 2 loaves. I did add the Diastatic Malted Powder. I added 3/8 ths teaspoon for the 6 cups of Flour called for in the recipe, as well as 1/4 cup of Sourdough Starter mixed into the H20 and removing 1/4 cup of the H20. The dough went together well. Rising in my Proofer beautifully per the instructions. Baked up Higher than any other breads I have ever made. WOW yes the flavor was different more like Store bought Bread. One loaf is already gone. Each half of dough weighed out at 1.70 on the scale. More than a 1 1/2 lb. loaf of bread. I am over the top thrilled with Breadtopia's Diastatic Malted Powder. Thank you so much for the Quality and Care you put into your Products.
