Description
Castle Malting®'s Château Wheat Blanc is great for bringing great taste to flavourful wheat beers. Château Wheat Blanc can also be used in smaller quantities (3-5%) to enhance beers using a barley malt base too. The high protein level in Château Wheat Blanc adds a nice mouthfeel and enhanced head stability to malt beers, and, as wheat has no outer husk, there are fewer tannins than those found in barley.
Note: Wheat is a lot 'stickier' than barley due to its higher protein content. A 'Protein Rest' is advised during mashing in to avoid lautering problems like a stuck mash.
Use: Wheat/white beers, light beers, lo alcohol or no alcohol/alcohol free beers.
Rate: Up to 35%.
