RedBack Wheat Malt is a unique wheat malt made by Gladfield Malt. Just like their popular Redback Malt, this malt is prepared using a special process before going into the roaster, and then roasted until Maillard reactions occur. Because the wheat does not have its husk, this style is a lot milder in flavour compared to Redback Malt. Redback Wheat will add a lot of colour to the beer without any harsh flavours.
RedBack Wheat Malt is also used to increase body and head retention in the finished beer due to the lower modification level and saccharification in the roaster. It can be used up to 15%, and complements a range of base malts.
