Product Overview
White Wheat Malt - Per Pound
White Wheat is a pale wheat malt made from North American soft winter white wheat. Pale wheat malt has the sweet malty flavor of other malted grains, but with a hint of fruitiness. Wheat malts are high in protein, which helps produce fuller-bodied beers. Wheat malt can improve head formation and retention, depending upon the other grist constituents. White wheat is easier to mill than red wheat, and more conducive to the haze characteristic of Belgian white beers. Rahr White Wheat is suitable for all wheat-style beers.
