Weyermann® CARAFA® Special Type 1

Weyermann® CARAFA® Special Type 1 is produced from quality spring barley. It is the de-husked version of CARAFA®. By removing the husks, it reduces astringency and bitterness, while adding coffee-brown color, a coffee-like bouquet, dark beer aroma, as well as body and mouthfeel to finished beer but without introducing harsh flavors.

Even small amounts of CARAFA SPECIAL® malts in the grain bill produce dark beers of unusual smoothness and mildness with a firm, creamy, white head. It has a color value of 300-375 lovibond, and its flavor has notes of coffee, cocoa and dark chocolate. It is intended for black beer (Schwarzbier), dark ale, dark beer, bock beer, stout, "altbier" and porter.
