− | ==Brewing with black patent malt==
| |
− | | |
− | ===General brewing information===
| |
− | Used in low proportions, black patent malt will add color to beers without a significant flavor impact. At a slightly higher rate, it will contribute dark, roasted flavors; overuse will lend an ashy flavor.
| |
− | | |
− | Black patent malt is also sold as a flour for easily measured color additions.
| |
− | | |
− | ===Beer styles===
| |
− | Black patent malt was the characteristic grain used to brew [[stout]] until it was supplanted by [[roasted barley]] in the early twentieth century. Some black malt is still used in most stouts, porters, and other dark beers, as well as to give color to some [[Schwarzbier]].
