The foam of the beer remains light.

Top quality Caramel Pils malt from maltster Best Malz
Caramel Pils malt
Colour (EBC): 3-7
Rate: Up to 50%
Content: 1 kg
Maltster: Best Malz (DE)
BEST Caramel® Pils is the lightest of all BEST Caramel® malts and is therefore particularly suitable for providing beers with more full-bodiedness without intensifying their color. Sensorically, the use of BEST Caramel® Pils leads to a sweet taste component in the beer reminiscent of honey, as the sugar-like caramel compounds contained can no longer be fermented by the yeast. The product can also lead to an improvement in foam retention and longer flavor stability.

Rate: Up to 100%
Content: 1 kg
Maltster: Best Malz (DE)
BEST Red X® has become synonymous with beers with a reddish color. It can be used 100% of the grain bill and is thus ready for use without the addition of further malts. BEST Red X® ensures, with the highest possible process reliability and optimum processability, that reproducibly bright beers with intense red colors can be brewed. The malt was designed for a P12 beer. For stronger beers, due to the higher original wort content, some BEST Pilsener malt should be added proportionally to the bulk to get back into the red range.

Melanoidin malt

Compared to BEST Melanoidin Light, BEST Melanoidin contains significantly more dextrins as well as aroma- and color-producing melanoidin compounds formed in a more intensive malting process. The malt is thus an excellent basis for particularly strong, dry-full-bodied and dark to chestnut-red beers. The fruity aromas, which are reminiscent of dried fruit, are also more pronounced than in BEST Melanoidin Light.
