Flavour and description
Rich caramel with a sweet taste
Dingemans · Flavour and use
Our Organic Cara MD is a dark caramel malt that is produced in the roasting drum. By gradually increasing the temperature, this organic malt gets its intense caramel sweet aroma and flavour, as well as its dark colour. Organic Cara MD malt is used by many Belgian breweries for the production of abbey beers. All caramelised malts have a positive effect on foam stability from as little as 5% of the grain bill. This organic caramelised malt can be used for up to 25% of the grain bill.
