Flavour and description
Château Oat malt is produced from naked oat kernels. This type of malt has a very low diastatic power and moderate extract values. Château Oat malt gives a distinctive silkiness to the beer. Great for enhancing body, head retention, and flavor of dark beers. Used as a flavor adjunct, it enhances a biscuit taste in the beer and gives it a unique texture and a creamy mouthfeel. Adds texture and flavor to any dark English beer style. Dark beers, porters, stouts, robust British ales, winter beers. Up to 15% of the mix.
