Weyermann Carafa 1 Special Malt 1kg Whole

Chocolate malt that gives flavours of coffee and dark chocolate, with some roastiness. Carafa® I Special is produced from de-husked barley, which makes the roasted notes smoother and more rounded, rather than bitter.

Use in small amounts for colour adjustment and up to 10 % for dark beer styles where roasty flavours is part of the character. Adds a brown-black colour to beer but not to the foam.

This malt is roasted and lacks enzymatic power. Roasted malts lowers the pH of the mash, which may require additions of calcium carbonate. Carafa® is a registered trademark of Weyermann®.
