Weyermann CaraPils 2.5-6.5 EBC

Weyermann CaraPils 2.5-6.5 EBC is the invisible helper: body, foam and head retention with almost no colour or flavour of its own. Malted in Bamberg by Weyermann, the benchmark German maltster, and the right choice for any style that needs more mouthfeel without changing the recipe's character.

Use it at 1-5% 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.
