Homebrew adjuncts are ingredients added to beer beyond the standard malt, hops, water, and yeast. They can enhance flavours, aromas, and mouthfeel.
Common adjuncts include:
1. Corn: Used to lighten the body and lighten the color.
3. Wheat: Adds body, improves head retention, and can create a hazy appearance.
4. Flaked Barley: Often used alongside malt to add complexity.
5. Lactose A non-fermentable sugar, commonly used in stouts to add sweetness and creaminess.
Using adjuncts can provide an opportunity for creativity and experimentation in homebrewing!
