Description
COA-BACKED BOTANICAL INGREDIENT
Roasted Barley Malt Extract
Fried malt extract is supplied as a dried 10:1 preparation of roasted malted barley grain. The roasting step is part of the identity of this grade: it is what gives the material its colour and its characteristic aroma, and it distinguishes it from an unroasted malt preparation. It is a botanical raw material for further processing and is not a finished consumer product.

Buyer Decision Guide
Agree the degree of roast, the ratio basis and the analytical method before approval, because colour and aroma are the acceptance criteria buyers most often apply to this grade. Confirm the delivered colour against a retained sample where consistency between shipments matters to the finished product.
- Degree of roast and delivered colour agreed against a retained sample
- Ratio basis and analytical method stated on the certificate of analysis
- Particle size and packing agreed at quotation
- Samples available for evaluation against the buyer’s own process
- Documentation: COA, specification sheet and safety data sheet
- Regulatory status, permitted uses and labelling are the buyer’s responsibility for the destination market
How This Grade Differs
Roasted and unroasted malt preparations are offered under similar names and are not interchangeable. The roasting step changes colour, aroma and the flavour contribution in the finished product, so a substitution should be evaluated in the buyer’s own application rather than approved on the plant name alone.
For a substitution review, compare botanical identity, plant part, assay target, analytical method, physical form and the current offered-batch COA.
