Yeah I have used it in the past. Nice malt and we had a good efficiancy from the mash. To be honest to my uneducated palate I couldn't taste much difference to MO. Give it a bash mate :thumb:
 
I've used it, it's what Brentwood Brewery use. You do get slightly more sugar extraction from it than standard MO, I was told the extraction was 311 for the batch I had so changed the LDK value in Beer Engine and hit my targets every time.
 
Seem to remember it being discussed in chat a couple of weeks back and someone saying it was a mixture of old malt, new malt and some imported malt. The fact micros are using means it should be ok.
 
Tipple is used by the big boys as well as a few Micros.

It is a fairly new strain in terms of malts AFAIAA, they used it where I used to work, & I have been using it a lot recently, (because I can buy it locally at £13 for 25kg).

My old work found it created a lot of extract problems, (very variable) & also caused a lot of protein haze issues.

I find it creates a very meaty crud in my mash tun and underback as well as a very thick scum on the copper in the first 1/4 of the boil, (its very bad for scum, very much like boiling a ham shank).

It does make good beer though.

If I could get Crisps Pale Malt, at the same price I can Buy Bairds Tipple, I would but the Crisps Pale every day over the Tipple, Crisps is a far superior product.

As for Maris otter, I have noticed no difference to any of my beers, since switching to plain old House Pale Malt, & think its not worth the premium price expected.
