Red Beacon– Melanoidin Malt

Red Beacon Melanoidin malt is produced using a similar process to our Golden Swift Pale Ale malt, whereby a long germination period in our malting drum achieves homogeneity and high extraction potential. Colour development occurs during germination due to extended recirculation. It is then kilned at higher temperatures to develop flavour and additional colour. Red Beacon Melanoidin malt gives beer a deep, intense flavour and a dark ruby colour. It is characteristically rich in melanoidins, producing dark, aroma-rich malts with deep notes of nuts, malt, and biscuit. This malt's rich ruby colour is perfect for use in amber ales, red ales, and Belgian dark styles.
