Weyermann CaraAmber Malt 60-80 EBC

Weyermann CaraAmber Malt 60-80 EBC is drier amber caramel with biscuit notes — colour and depth without cloying sweetness. Malted in Bamberg by Weyermann, the benchmark German maltster, and the right choice for amber ale, Altbier, red ales and hoppy ambers.

Use it at 5-15% of the grain bill. It is pre-converted in the kilning, so all-grain brewers mash it with the base malt and extract brewers simply steep it in a grain bag. Order it whole, or choose Crushed and we mill it fresh at 1 mm right before shipping.
