BEST Special X® is a dark caramel malt that has undergone a short roasting. As a result, it develops a very intensive, exceptional flavor profile. At a maximum usage rate of 20%, a bright chestnut red to chestnut brown color is achieved in a P12 beer. Even in low grain bill proportions, the malt is excellent for supporting the overall body of dark beers and makes the taste experience more complex and interesting.
