Viking Chocolate Light Malt

Light chocolate malt is produced by roasting pilsner malt. Chocolate Light Malt has zero amylolytic activity. The amount of fermentable extract is quite low. Applications: Light Chocolate Roast malt is mainly used for port and stout beers, but due to its strong color value it can also be used for other dark beers such as dark ales. Chocolate Light Malt adds roasted flavors and aromas with hints of dark chocolate and coffee to any beer. Even at fairly small doses, there is a noticeable increase in color along with changes in taste and aroma. A typical dosage of Chocolate Light Malt is usually less than 5-10%. Did you know? Unlike caramel malts, chocolate malts are obtained from dry malts, which caramelize under the influence of sugars at a high temperature during roasting. Various recipes can be found at this link.
