Briess Caramel Malt 80L per lb (C80)

Pronounced caramel, slight burnt sugar, raisiny. This is a drum roasted crystallized malt that improves foam, enhances viscosity, and contributes golden hues with a dried fruit, candy-like sweetness. Their Caramel Malts are roaster produced, making them the fullest flavored and best performing Caramel Malts. Briess 2-Row Caramel 80L is a dark crystal malt made with 2-row barley. It imparts red to deep red color, and moderate flavors of burnt-sugar and raisin. Crystal malts also add body and improve head retention.  Crystal malts are gently cooked during the malting process. Cooking initiates the enzymatic conversion of starches into fermentable sugars, and caramelizes some of the sugars as the malt reaches its final color. This eliminates the need to mash crystal malt, and ensures that some of the sugars will survive fermentation to sweeten the beer. Briess caramel malts are roaster produced to create glassy, crystallized sugars with rich flavor and color. **Pilsners, Vienna to Oktoberfest and Dark Lagers, Pale Ales, bitter IPA's, Porter, Stouts and Barley Wine.
