Description
Red Beacon Melanoidin Malt is made by a similar process to our Golden Swift Pale Ale Malt, where we complete a long germination in our drum malting plant for homogeneity to achieve high extract potential. Colour formation occurs during germination due to extended recirculation. It's then kilned at higher temperatures for flavour and further colour development.
