CaraWheat grain is a specialty malt cherished by homebrewers for its ability to enrich beer with distinct flavors, textures, and colors. Crafted from malted wheat, CaraWheat undergoes a meticulous kilning process to develop its unique characteristics. This malt boasts a delightful combination of qualities, blending the smooth, creamy texture of wheat with the rich, caramel sweetness of caramel malts. The result is a grain that lends complexity and depth to a wide array of beer styles, particularly those that benefit from a velvety mouthfeel and a subtle sweetness. In terms of flavor, CaraWheat imparts a gentle sweetness reminiscent of caramel or honey, complemented by the soft, malty notes characteristic of wheat. These flavor nuances can enhance the overall profile of beers such as wheat ales, Belgian-style witbiers, Hefeweizens, and other wheat-based brews. One of the key attributes of CaraWheat is its ability to improve body and head retention, akin to other caramel malts. This contributes to a fuller, more satisfying beer with a creamy texture and a luscious foam. When incorporating CaraWheat into homebrew recipes, it is typically added to the mash alongside other grains. The proportion used varies depending on the desired flavor profile, typically falling within the range of 5% to 15% of the total grain bill.
