Description

What is Château Smoked?
Château Smoked is a distinctive malt from Castle Malting, known for its signature smoky flavour imparted by beechwood. This unique profile is a favourite among brewers seeking to create flavour-rich smoked beers, Rauchbiers, or Alaskan ales.

How to Use Château Smoked
Use Château Smoked in various recipes up to 15% of the total grain bill to impart a pronounced, smoky quality. Its enzymes make it versatile, enhancing mashing efficiency when used with base malts or other specialty grains.

Flavour Profile
Expect a rich, smoky sweetness that complements deep malt flavours, contributing to a robust yet balanced taste in darker or specialty brews.

Enzymatic Activity
Château Smoked retains enzymatic activity, making it a functional addition in the mashing process to boost starch conversion and support a smooth brewing flow, even when used with other specialty malts.

Mashing
This malt features a quick saccharification time (15 minutes) and a diastatic power of 250 WK, enhancing the brewing process when paired with base malts.

Combining with Other Malts
Château Smoked works well alongside pilsner or pale malts, creating a balanced smoky depth. Its low protein content further ensures clarity and clean flavour, ideal for enhancing malt-forward recipes.

Benefits of Château Smoked
Château Smoked enriches recipes by infusing smoky aromas while also improving enzyme support during mashing. Its traceability and GMO-free certification ensure top-quality brewing standards.

History
This malt pays homage to traditional European smoking methods, especially popular in Rauchbier production. Château Smoked brings this heritage into modern brewing, offering a consistent, premium option for complex smoky beers.
