Carafa Special® TYPE II; Weyermann®
Carafa Special® TYPE II; Weyermann®
German-grown two-row spring barley (2004 harvest). Product Characteristics: CARAFA SPECIAL® is the de-husked version of CARAFA®. Using our unique process, we remove the husks from carefully selected grains before malting and roasting them. Reduces astringency and bitterness, while adding coffee-brown color, a coffee-like bouquet, dark-beer aroma, as well as body and mouthfeel to finished beer—but without introducing harsh flavors. Even small amounts of CARAFA SPECIAL® malts in the grain bill produce dark beers of unusual smoothness and mildness with a firm, creamy, white head. Recommended Quantities: Up to 5% of total grain bill Suitability (beer styles): Lagers: Dunkel, Doppelbock Ales: Dark, Stout, Altbier

Caramel Malt 60L; Briess
Caramel Malt 60L; Briess
Sweet, pronounced caramel flavor. 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.

My Black Lager
2011-07-23 12:06pm
As of 7/23/2011 this brew is in it's 2nd full week of lager at a temp of 45 degrees.Very smooth tasting lager. Was trying to shoot for the Rahr & Sons Black lager (ugly pug) but probably it more in the area of Shiner Black Lager. This is a more malty beer and very little hop in taste and to the nose, nice chocolate presents and a hint of coffee late after taste, as of now a very drinkable beer. In future i will try to increase the speciality grain just a tiny bit. Hey don't get me wrong the beer tools program hit it right on the head. I will bottle in 2 more weeks from now after we come back from vacation in the Dominican Republic. I will update in the future....
