Diastatic malt
Is that the same as my Gerstenmalzmehl Aktiv (active barley malt flour)? If so, how much do you use? I chucked in a small bag with my last flour order but I'm not quite sure how to use it. I just added 7.5g to 400g of flour (of unknown mixture as its a gift from my sister, I'm just hoping there's no dried yeast in it) right at the start when mixing for autolyse and will see how that goes. But would be nice to get some insight in what it actually does and how much to use. I understood it to basically be MDMA for my sourdough culture, about right?

Today’s attempt

Diastatic malt added to the flours plus malt flakes in dough and rolled in malt flakes after shaping.
