Dextrin Malt

Proximity ReGenMalt Dextrin Malt adds body, mouthfeel, and head retention without contributing much flavor or sweetness. It adds unfermentable dextrin sugars that preserve final gravity from creeping too low and becoming dry.

Flavor/Aroma

• Clean, subtle malt character
• Very low flavor impact at normal rates
• Slight malt sweetness when pushed harder

Beer Interplay

• Increases body and mouthfeel through unfermentable dextrins
• Improves head retention and foam stability
• Low color

Practical Usage

Use Proximity Body Builder at 2–5% of the grist when you need to round out a beer that’s coming across thin or when you’re using a lot of adjuncts. Dextrin malt prevents beer from creeping too dry by contributing unfermentable dextrin sugars, particularly when large portions of a grist (90%+) are highly fermentable base malts.

It’s especially useful in hazy IPAs and light lagers where you want more body and better head without pushing color or flavor too far. A little goes a long way — start low and adjust on the next batch.
