Our next release in our limited Small Batch Series is Smooth Coffee Malt. This exciting new malt has been produced in collaboration with the incredible team at Rye River Brewing Co having been gently processed through our state-of-the-art roasting facility, the Speciality Malt Plant.
Through careful application and control of temperature, this low coloured roasted malt offers a delicate smokiness, combined with warm spicy notes, and ends with an intense hit of modern day coffee aromas. It will really make your brewhouse smell amazing!
Smooth Coffee has been made using a modern barley variety, exclusive to Crisp. Choosing this barley variety and its special characteristics means we have been able to achieve an immense smoothness, which further intensifies the coffee-like drinking experience.
As well as the beautiful aromas and smoothness, this product also offers a beautiful deep orange hue which would be perfect for use in Brown Ales or Ruby Beers. Why not layer it up to achieve wonderfully rich Porters and Stouts, perfect for winter months?
We recommend using this malt in up to 10% of the grist and it would be perfect paired with our Clear Choice malt for a subtle sweetness and a latte inspired brew.
During the brew day everyone commented on the smell from the brewhouse – in wort there is a great coffee character. Actual coffee vibe.
