Caramel and crystal malts add rich sweetness, color, and body to beer, providing flavors ranging from light toffee and honey to deep caramel, raisin, and burnt sugar. These malts are kilned and caramelized to lock in unfermentable sugars, contributing to mouthfeel and residual sweetness while enhancing malt complexity.
Our Caramel & Crystal Malts collection features a variety of light, medium, and dark crystal malts from top maltsters like Simpsons, Weyermann, Crisp, Rahr, Gambrinus, Dingemans, and Admiral Maltings. Lighter caramel malts (10-40°L) add subtle sweetness and golden hues, while medium caramel malts (50-80°L) bring deeper toffee, caramel, and dried fruit notes. Darker crystal malts (90-150°L) contribute rich, intense caramelized sugar flavors with hints of burnt sugar, raisin, and molasses.
These malts are perfect for pale ales, IPAs, amber ales, porters, stouts, and even lagers that need a touch of caramel complexity. Available by the ounce or in full bags, these specialty grains help brewers fine-tune malt character and color with precision.
