How do I read a malt analysis?

We provide malt analysis on our web page to give you an idea of the different values. We receive malt every week. Unfortunately, we cannot update the analysis to cover every batch. This would take using all of the previous malt before we brought new malt into the building to make sure we did not mix up a bag hear or there. The most useful numbers are the DP, color and protein. The DP will tell you how much adjunct you can add and still convert all of the starch to sugar. The color will help you decide on the final color of your beer and the protein can help you with haze issues. For a well written guide to malt analysis look at: http://www.brewingtechniques.com/bmg/noonan.html
