The Swaen GoldSwaen Red 40-60 EBC

The Swaen GoldSwaen Red 40-60 EBC is Dutch caramel malt with a warm red glow — soft toffee and colour for red ales. Malted by The Swaen in Kloosterzande, the Netherlands — Dutch family maltsters since 1724, and the right choice for Irish red, red IPA and amber ales at 5–15%.

Use it at 5-15% of the grain bill. All-grain brewers mash it with the base malt; extract brewers steep it in a grain bag. Order it whole, or choose Crushed and we mill it fresh at 1 mm right before shipping.
