De-Bittered Black Malt
- Category:
- Grain
- Type:
- Roasted Malt
- Stage:
- Mash
- Color Range:
- 500
- Notes:
- This special roast malt has had the husk removed prior to malting, creating a much smoother roasted character in the beer. This malt is often used for color adjustment, but only in small amounts (roughly 1.5-3 oz. in 5 gal.). It can be used in larger amounts, such as 5% of the grain bill, to contribute the roast character for porters and stouts without as much bite as a traditional black malt.
