Additional Information:

Chocolate malts are often hindered by bitter and astringent flavours that occur due to the burning of the husk in the roasting process. Gladfield Chocolate malts utilise a unique process that keeps the husk moist throughout roasting, thus inhibiting the bitter and astringent flavours. This unique roasting process offers smooth roast flavours without the harness that is often associated with darker malts.
