Black Barley 500°L is a highly roasted grain used to create deep color and bold roasted flavor in beer and distilling recipes. With its intense dark-roast profile, it contributes notes of coffee, cocoa, and toasted grain while delivering the rich color expected of stouts, porters, and darker whiskey mash variations. Used in small amounts, Black Barley enhances complexity without overpowering the grain bill. It is especially useful for adding color and roasted depth to craft brewing recipes or experimental distilling projects.
This grain is unmalted and roasted to a high degree, making it ideal for steeping in brewing or adding character to mash bills where bold flavor and color are desired.
