Carafa Type 1 Malt - Weyermann

CARAFA Type 1 is a light-roasted specialty malt made from high-quality spring barley. This carefully roasted malt adds an espresso-like bouquet, coffee and chocolate flavours. A mild but noticeable roasted aftertaste is also present. It produces opaque beers with a coffee-brown colour. CARAFA Type 1 is similar to 'Chocolate' style roasted malts, and can be used in any dark lager or ale.

Where malt-based bitterness is not desired, consider using Weyermann CARAFA Special Type 1. The de-husked version of CARAFA®. It produces rich colour, body, flavor and aroma without the harsh flavours and astringency typical of dark-coloured grains.
