Roasted Barley
The starting material for roasted barley is good quality malting barley of even size.
The process is similar to that used for black malt, the grain being heated in a
revolving roasting drum to temperatures up to 230°C. Colours of 1700° EBC can
be achieved. Charring is avoided as it would result in loss of colour.
Beer or stout produced by incorporating roasted barley in the grist has a dry
flavour and a lighter colour head than that given by chocolate or black malt.
