Is it possible to approximate Dark Munich malt (20L) by roasting Light Munich in the oven? I brew organic, and have not been able to locate Organic Dark Munich.
Maibock addict? I have been wanting to try a Maibock but haven't brewed one yet. What yeast do you use? Thanks for the info on toasting Munich. I'll use it to add character, flavor mostly, and a little color.
If you are just looking for darker color in the beer than toasting it will do that. The flavor will not be the same as dark munich. It will taste like toasted munich
What flavor does Dark Munich add?
I use 833 a LOT! And I really like to use home toasted malts. I'm curious to get a report on the head of the finished product. It seems to me that when I use home toasted malt, I get extra creamy, stiff foam so I'm curious to hear if other get this
.....And you are supposed to let the toasted malts sit for a week before using according to what I have heard and seen on doing such things...
"Remember, it is fermentable, not like crystal malts where it just adds unfermentables."
Not sure where you got that info, but it is definitely not true. Crystal malts have a higher percentage of unfermentable sugar, but they still have significant fermentable sugar - especially if mashed.
