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.

€2.78*
Top quality Heidelberger Wheat malt from maltster Bestmalz
Wheat malt
Colour (EBC): 2.5-3.5

Content: 1 kg
BEST Heidelberger Wheat Malt is a particularly light malt and emphasizes the tangy freshness as well as the typical top-fermented wheat beer taste. BEST Heidelberg Wheat Malt is produced from high-quality brewing wheat varieties that have only a limited tendency to color during the malting process. Due to the raw materials used, the protein content is somewhat more moderate than in BEST Wheat Malt.
Bestmalz Acidulated Malt 1 kg
€5.95*
Top quality Acidulated Malt from maltster Best Malz
Acidulated Malt
Colour (EBC): 3-8
Rate: Up to 5%
Content: 1 kg
Maltster: Best Malz (DE)
BEST Acidulated Malt is used to optimize the pH value in the mash when the brewing water is not entirely optimal. This leads to higher enzyme activity in the mash and thus to a higher yield as well as better flavor stability. The colors of the worts become brighter and the aroma of the beer more balanced. The amount used and its effect on the pH shift in the mash should be determined by preliminary tests. The pH value of the wort and beer is not usually reduced, as more buffer substances are also formed as a result of the improved mass transfer.

Vienna / Wiener malt
Colour (EBC): 8-10
Rate: Up to 100%
Content: 5 kg
Maltster: Best Malz (DE)
The use of BEST Wiener results in a full golden beer color, excellent foaming and a pleasant, full-bodied taste in the final beer. Unlike BEST Heidelberg, this malt uses two-row malting barley varieties that form more coloring substances during the malting process. The protein content is slightly higher than in a Pilsen malt from the same harvest, with comparable enzyme content and high extract values.
Bestmalz Melanoidin 1 kg
€4.45*
Top quality Melanoidin malt from maltster Best Malz
Melanoidin malt
Colour (EBC): 60-80
Rate: Up to 50%
Content: 1 kg
Maltster: Best Malz (DE)
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.

Colour (EBC): 2,9
Rate: Up to 100%

BEST Heidelberger is a malt made from special, two-row malting barley varieties that are less prone to coloring during the malting process. BEST Heidelberger is particularly suitable for the production of especially light beers.

Bestmalz Caramel Munich III 1 kg

Caramel Munich III malt
Colour (EBC): 131-200
Rate: Up to 40%
Content: 1 kg
Maltster: Best Malz (DE)
BEST Caramel® Munich III is the darkest caramel malt from the BEST Caramel® Munich line. With this malt, even with low proportions on the grain bill, it is possible to brew strong dark beers and all types of dark specialty beers where value is placed on a full, round taste reminiscent of bread crust. The pleasantly toasty aroma components stand out clearly depending on the grain bill proportion. Due to the special caramelization process, a very uniform caramel formation in the grain is achieved. This facilitates the brewing process and contributes to a pleasant aroma profile of the resulting beers.
Bestmalz Red X 25 kg

Top quality Red X malt from maltster Best Malz
Red X malt for Red Ales
Colour (EBC): 28-32
Rate: Up to 100%
Content: 25 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.

Bestmalz A-XL 25 Kg
€41.45*
BEST A-XL is a malt made from the traditional German barley variety Alexis. It gives the beer a nice malty flavour, a full body and a golden yellow colour. An increased free amino nitrogen (FAN) content appropriately supplies the yeast during fermentation. Thanks to its balanced proteolytic and cytolytic properties, BEST A-XL shows up to 30% more foam stability in tests compared to conventional standard malts. Using the Steinfurth foam stability tester (MEBAK), values of >120 SKZ were measured in the final beer, indicating very good foam. Malt from Alexis barley can be used up to 100% in the malt deposit. BEST A-XL is available exclusively from Braumarkt.
