A magical thing happens when amino acids and reducing sugars combine at critical temperatures; the Maillard reaction. Starting with higher protein spring barley we germinate to higher levels of modification then adjust early kilning conditions to utilise the malt enzymes to hydrolyse protein and convert starch in sugars.

Finally, a long drying phase with a higher temperature results in the Maillard reaction taking place to produce pronounced rich malt, freshly baked bread crust and the characteristic Munich bite at the back of the palate.

Munich Malt has its origins in Germany where traditional beers gained their rich malty character from the addition of specialist malts with enhanced colour and flavour. These products are made on a conventional malt kiln using processes that promote higher levels of soluble protein and simple sugars which interact when heat is applied to produce a product rich in melanoidins and other colour and flavour compounds.

The malty flavours associated with Munich Malt contrast with the caramel-like flavours associated with crystal malts and the golden to reddish hues to the colour is popular in some beer styles.

TI've been using this for a while now; this was a great discovery. Turns a pale into an amber, and with more malty, bready goodness.

Hey Chris,
We couldn't agree more...Crisp Dark Munich is a great malt to lift the malt complexity and character of virtually any beer style.

An unexpected bonus.

I bought this to add a little more colour to my brews. This added maltiness and breadiness, not overpowering, but in the right balance. I used 25% in the grain bill for a slightly darker amber for an English Bitter. Outstanding! A softer caramel in both the colour and flavour. I only keep few grains/hops, but this one will become a stalwart.

Hey Christopher,
Tanks for your review. Your on the right wavelength adding some Dark Munich for more maltiness and breadiness and character in your beers. Keep up the great work brewing happy and have a great brewing week.
