Flavour and description
Crystal Wheat is a challenging malt to make in the roaster. The wheat grain has no husk so as you saccharify the grain in the roaster the risk of sticking to the roaster drum is high. Doug and the team carefully play with temperatures on the roaster to allow almost 100% saccharification without compromising the flavours and most importantly the roaster!
