You’re so right and you should say it.
The malt powder just doesn’t mix well with the espresso so when you’re drinking it you get that grainy texture from the malt and it’s just so UGHH

The texture of it is the woooorsstt I usually like malt but I can’t drink that one lol

if it’s the grainy consistency, then listen!!!! whenever i made the chocolate shaken espressos i ALWAYS add the malt powder to the shaker and the espresso straight in and then swirl it for 5-6 seconds till it dissolves and then add ice and it’s not grainy at all anymore. i think that would help with the textural issues you guys have bc i feel the same!

I haven’t tried that! I might try it with oatmilk too maybe it’ll be way better

Former partner here, and I am curious, can someone tell me what ingredients are in the chocolate cream cold brew? I tried one for the first time earlier this week, but I didn't realize there was malt powder in it. Is it blended in with the cream?
leftyplantmom 3 points 1y ago
vanilla in cold brew (1-2-3-4 for t,g,v,tr) and 2 scoops chocolate malt powder blended in the vanilla sweet cream cold foam
ChristPlays10000 1 points 1y ago
Ah okay, thanks!
Brgnbo [OP] 1 points 1y ago
It gets 2 pumps vanilla in the cold brew itself (for a grande) then gets vanilla sweet cream foam with 2 scoops of chocolate malt powder in it.

Ah ok, thanks!

Does anyone else find the malt smell to be the nastiest smell ever?! None of my coworkers agree, but I literally have to hold my breath when using it. Worst ingredient ever to me 🥲
b99__throwaway 2 points 1y ago
no. the worst smell ever is expired frap roast. smells like bad soy sauce
drinkliquidclocks 1 points 1y ago
I’m not too fond of that either but that’s nothing compared to my malt repulsion 😵💫 honorable mention to the kiwi refresher, aaaa

I really like the malt powder in a few things but the almond milk espresso is terrible. Like, put it in a vanilla bean frap. It's awesome
PixelBlood02 2 points 1y ago
Honestly malt belongs in dairy, not in espresso. I feel the same way
thebestdaysofmyflerm 2 points 1y ago
Have you tried the chocolate almond milk espresso with oat milk instead of almond? It's so good.
dazedandconfusedhere 2 points 1y ago
I havent tried it yet, but I’ve heard that the malt pairs really well with the vanilla in the cold brew
Brgnbo [OP] 1 points 1y ago
The vanilla in the foam and the cold brew is rly good with it. I made the cold brew with brown sugar today and that was super good.
uwumoment 1 points 1y ago
the chocolate cream cold brew makes me gag when i make it, i’ve had it and it is gross to me lol

Made a toffee nut vanilla bean Frappuccino with the chocolate cream at the top and it was soooo goooooodddd
GwenZilly 1 points 1y ago
Oh my god I put it in the brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso and it's fire... I honestly don't know what you guys are talking about with the texture
