2-Row Caramel Malt 60L; Briess
2-Row Caramel Malt 60L; Briess
Sweet, Pronounced Caramel. Characteristics & Applications: • In contrast to Brewers Malt, glassiness is a distinguishing characteristic of Caramel Malt. The glassy endosperm creates the desirable non-fermentable components giving true Caramel Malt the ability to contribute body (mouthfeel), foam foam retention, and extended beer stability, while contributing color and unique caramel flavor. • 2-Row Caramel Malt 60L is a roasted caramel malt that imparts deep golden to red color. • Use 3-7% for Pilsener-style beers for balance. • Use 5-15% to provide color, sweetness and color to amber and red beers. • Produced from AMBA/BMBRI recommended 2-Row Malting Barley varieties.
- .5 lbs

BrewTek CL-170 Classic British Ale
BrewTek CL-170 Classic British Ale
CL-170 produces a beautiful draft bitter or Porter. This yeast leaves a complex ale with very British tones and fruit like esters, yet it also attenuates well, leaving a dry finish. It is a good choice for high gravity worts.

Discussion
Great tasting porter, rich full bodied

I am very happy with the way this turned out. When I bought the grains the guy at the store put 1/4 lb more black malt and I didn't object so it came out really dark, very true to character but with a smooth taste. I am very pleased with this one and will make another in the future.
