Toffee Malt (Gladfield)
Toffee Malt is a unique malt made by Gladfield Malt. They make this malt by taking a lower to mid-range nitrogen winter or autumn barley variety, roasting the resulting malt at very low temperatures, and then caramelise the malt. The low temperature and slower roasting produces a malt with a very light colour, a chewy consistency, with honey or toffee taste. It will only impart flavour if added at a higher rate to the beer, up to 25%.
Toffee Malt is highly popular for its subtle impact on colour and flavour, making it ideal for enhancing mouthfeel without overpowering the beer. It also improves body, stability, and overall texture.
Because of its high moisture content, Gladfield recommend that brewers mill the Toffee Malt mixed with other malts to avoid clogging the malt mill.
Use: Aid head retention and mouthfeel when used at 2-5%.
Rate: Up to 25%
EBC: 10-20 (typically 12)
Available milled or whole.
