Did a quick search & found nothing on this, but I'm wondering if anybody has used acidulated malt in sourdough? I thought about grinding the malt into a coarse flour & just adding it to the starter, but I don't always want barley malt flour in the mix.

Then I thought of steeping it or maybe doing a sort of "mini mash" & using the resulting "wort" instead of water in the starter. Anybody tried this? If so, what were the results?

I'm looking to get a more sour flavour in my dough, but I still want a great flavour. I usually use this:

Nope, never thought of it. I have only made one sourdough bread and I did it by leaving it out to gather wild yeast. Came out good.
