FEATURES
Belgian light-coloured base malt. Kilning at up to 90-95°C.
CHARACTERISTICS
Usually used as a base malt or in combination with Pilsen 2RS malt to impart a richer malt flavour and additional colour. Being deeper in colour, this malt can add a golden hue to the wort. It is used with strong yeasts to produce amber and bitter beers. Château Pale Ale malt is kilned longer and is usually better modified, providing a more pronounced flavour than Pilsen 2RS. The enzymatic activity of Château Pale Ale malt is sufficient when used with large proportion of non-enzymatic specialty malts.
STORAGE & SHELF LIFE
Malt should be stored in a clean, cool (~ 22 °C) and dry (~ 35 RH %) area. If these conditions are observed, we recommend to use all whole kernel products within 18 – 24 months from the date of manufacture and all milled products within 3 months.
