Wheat Malt (Dark) - substitution
Fermentables > Roasted Malts
Description:
This malt is not made from barley, but from wheat. Malted wheat is roasted at high temperatures, then cooled very quickly. With this malt, you can achieve a dark brown color and notes of black coffee and bittersweet chocolate in your beer. The wheat version of the malt has more pronounced dark chocolate character than barley. This malt is used to obtain a dark color and richer flavor. Improves head retention and gives a noticeable increase in dissolved gas pressure in beer. Share in grist up to 20%. Not to be confused with unmalted wheat (that's a different category).
