| CHATEAU VIENNA 2RS 5.0-7.0 EBC /2.3-3.1 Lovibond Ref: MVIEN2RS
Coloration EBC: 4 - 6
Features: Belgian Vienna base malt. Lightly kilned at up to 85-90°C with shorter "cure" duration.
Usage: All beer styles, Vienna lager. To enhance colour and aroma of light beers
Characteristics: Imparts a maltier and a more grainy flavour than Pilsen malt and adds subtle aromas of caramel and toffee. Vienna malt is kilned at slightly higher temperatures than Pilsen malt. As a result Vienna malt gives a deeper golden colour to the beer increasing at the same time body and fullness. Due to the higher kilning temperature, the enzyme activity of Vienna Malt is slightly lower than that of Pilsen malt. However, the enzymes are sufficient to support the addition of high amounts of specialty malts.
