Description
Malted spelt, an ancient wheat relative, bringing gentle spice and a hazelnut note plus a firmer structure to the finished beer. Protein reaches 17 percent, so it builds body and foam at modest additions. Extract, moisture, color and wort pH are published; the diastatic power given is class-typical for spelt malt, as no figure is stated.
