Weyermann® Grains CARAFA^®  Special Type 1 Malt

Made from the finest German quality brewing barley, this malt is produced using Weyermann's unique manufacturing process for the CaraFa Special Serires - where a large protion of the husk of the grain is removed. Combined with an adapted roasting program, this results in the finest roasting aroma while minimizing the roasted bitterness.
