Description
BEST Wheat Malt 25 kg – wheat malt for wheat beers and top-fermented beers
BEST Wheat Malt is the base malt for all types of wheat beer. It gives a tangy freshness and the typical taste of top-fermented wheat beer, and is made only from high-quality brewing wheat. The wheat malt has a higher protein content than BEST Pilsen Malt and therefore gives more body and better foam in top-fermented beers.
Please note: This product is only available in Norway.
