Flavour and description
Raw roasted organic barley. Torrefied up to 230 oC. The length of roasting time determines the darkness of the grain. Château Roasted Barley Nature is a highly roasted barley that imparts a burnt, grainy, coffee-like flavor to your beer. It has many characteristics of Château Black Nature malt, though it is far more complex. It actually has some starch that can be converted during the mash, thus impacting the specific gravity. Château Roasted Barley will also lend to the sweetness to the beer. If compared to Château Chocolat Nature and Château Black Nature malts, organic roasted barley produces the lightest colored head. Imparts a deep red mahogany color to beer and very strong roasted flavor. Gives dryness to organic Porters and Stouts. Organic Stouts, organic Porters, organic Nut Brown Ales and other organic dark beer styles
