Improperly stored malts are prone to loss of freshness and flavor. Whole kernel diastatic and preground malts are best when used within 6 months from date of manufacture. Whole kernel roasted malts may begin experiencing a slight flavor loss after 18 months. FLAVOR & COLOR CHARACTERISTICS Malt Style: Bitterless Black Malt Flavor: Subtle, smooth. No bitter, astringent, dry flavors or aftertaste. Very delicate, clean flavor Mild roasted malty flavor Color: Dark brown to black tones CHARACTERISTICS / APPLICATIONS Blackprinz Malt is produced from hulless barley and functions as a 1:1 replacement to debittered black malt, but with smoother flavor. That's because debittered black malts are made by removing a great deal of the husk, but not all of it. Since husk develops bitter notes during roasting, debittered black malts will contribute a certain amount of bitter, astringent or dry flavors or after taste to beer. Blackprinz Malt will contribute the same color characteristics as Black Malt but without the bitter, astringent, dry flavors or aftertaste. Use in Black IPAs, Black Lagers, Black Ales, Schwarzbiers and other beers for deep, rich color with only hints of subtle roasted flavor, and for color adjustment in any beer style. SUGGESTED USAGE LEVELS 1-2% Minor color adjustment with little to no flavor impact in lighter colored lagers and ales 2-5% Adds color with subtle, smooth flavor 5-10% Use in larger quantities for color plus mild roasted malty flavor
