Weyermann® Carafa Special II Malt 250g Whole

Weyermann CARAFA® Special II 

CARAFA® Special II is a dark, hull-less specialty malt from Weyermann. The malt is roasted at a high temperature and gives a lot of color along with distinct roasted flavor nuances of coffee and dark chocolate.

Before roasting, large parts of the husk are removed from the barley grain. The husk contains tannins that, when roasted heavily, can contribute bitterness and sharper burnt notes. By using husked barley, the CARAFA® Special series has a softer roasted feel and less husk bitterness than similar dark malts with husks.

CARAFA® Special II is darker than Special I and therefore gives more color and a more pronounced roasted character. It can be used in ports and stouts, but also in dark beers where you want a lot of color without the taste of roasted malt dominating.
