Would it be possible to make a wash out of Cooper's Brew Enhancer? It would foam a bit, but it's basically just malt and sugar.

No reason you cant add a bag to a sugarhead does not have to be 100% improver/ malt powder. Its amazing the lift a tin or bag of malt powder/syrup or bit yellow angel will give a sugarhead...

You would be better off using dried malt rather than brew enhancer. Much more fermentable. Brew enhancer contains a fair amount of unfermentable material.

The maltedextrin thats unfermentable. They say it helps head retention and mouthfeel. I wonder if it carries over, helping with mouthfeel in whiskey.
