Diastatic Malt Flour

Diastatic Malt Flour

Malted barley flour comes in two varieties including the Diastatic Malt Flour and non-diastatic one. Diastatic malted flour is what is usually intended when malted barley flour is stated. It is the one that has activated enzymes and is utilised in baking. It does not have any real flavour to speak of, so it is flavor-neutral, but some of the speciality ones may have more flavour. It also has little effect on colour. What it does is make the crumb moister.
