    Online or from brewer supply places. I got mine through Amazon. It’s pretty cheap.

    Diastatic malt powder is sprouted barley that is then milled; those enzymes help break the starch down to sugar so the yeast can feed more easily.

    It is definitely not required as the basic ingredients are the four you listed. But it’s a nice thing to add.
