I've been speaking to Mike of Brewers Coop about him stocking Melanoiden Malt. He'll do it as long as there is enough demand. From speaking to a few people and following threads on the forum there does seem to a number of brewers using or who would use it if was readily available.
I understand that German Melanoiden is interchangable with Belgian Aromatic.
So what's the word, would you be interested in it, and if so how much? I'd get 3kg.
I said to Mike that I'd start a thread and then let him know what the demand was like.
Depending on the response there could be a wider opportunity here to source a greater variety of Malts. Brewers Coop have added quite a few specialty malts over the last year, but there's still others I'd like to see there - i.e Belgian Special B
By the way, and just to be clear, I'm not offering to do a bulk order and distribute etc. All orders would need to be placed directly with Brewers Coop, to which (despite appearances) I have no commercial interest lol .
