Pilsner Malt; Powells Malt
Pilsner Malt; Powells Malt
Pilsner Malt is used as the base malt for the classic Pilsner, Kolsch and Lager styles. Pilsner Malt has a relatively low curing temperature of 85 degrees, which is sufficient to remove most of the grassy flavours arising from oxidized lipids. The predominant flavour is malty biscuit, and beers made from Pilsner Malt are clean, full-bodied with light colour.

Melanoidin Malt; Powells Malt
Melanoidin Malt; Powells Malt
Melanoidin Malt is used in the production of dark beers, Scottish ales, amber beers, red ales and Irish ales. Melanoidin Malt is produced by allowing well-modified green malt to heat to 40-50 degrees for up to 24 hours at the end of the germination process. The malt is then cured at temperatures exceeding 100 degrees C. Melanoidin Malts give beer a reddish tint, improved fullness and roundness of flavour and enhanced flavour stability.

Brewed this in early Oct,had my first taste test when brewing with a newbie the other day.I purchased 2 Erdinger Weizenbock we drank them, ok.This brew blew the commercial version away.It had a good mouth feel,had a subtle clove and banana taste and left a coffee chocolate taste on the back pallet,a great beer.
