Description
Carafa Special II (dehusked) Malt – Weyermann
Carafa Special Type II is a dark-roasted specialty malt made from high-quality spring barley. Where malt-based bitterness is not desired, Carafa Special Type II is a perfect fit. As the dehusked version of Carafa, it produces rich colour, body, flavour and aroma without the harsh flavours and astringency typical of dark-coloured grains.
