The malt is a well modified Lager malt, which is kilned in such a way, that modification continues during kilning and very high finishing heats (105 -120°C) are used to produce the characteristic colour and flavour.

Powells Malt • Australia

Munich Malt

Munich Malt is used in production of dark, aromatic and full-bodied lagers, Marzen, Oktoberfest, Bock and Double Bock styles. Munich Malt is produced by stewing green malt, then kilning at temperatures up to 100-110 degrees. The curing regime is designed to preserve some of the enzyme activity necessary for mash conversion, while providing the colour necessary for darker, fuller beers. The pyrazines produced from this process give rise to a distinctive nutty flavour and aroma.

Gladfield • New Zealand

Munich Malt

Gladfield Munich malt is germinated similar to the Vienna malt using slightly higher nitrogen barley to create more intense colour through greater maillard reactions. This is achieved with a kilning regime that includes higher levels of moist air recirculation during the early and intermediate stages of the kilning cycle followed by high final curing temperatures. The resulting malt is rich, sweet, toasty and biscuity with a touch of breadiness.
