To improve head retention and creamyness

to add more body to a Vienna Lager

Thomas Brophy on Jan 10, 2022

I brew specifically Lagers and head production and retention is of utmost important. Viking has a great reputation and I see a good number of local brewers with Viking bags stacked on pallets. That's a good sign!

Does this malt have diastatic power? I don't see it listed in the malt report

Andrew J Kelsch on Apr 25, 2020

BEST ANSWER: Message from Viking Malt:

We don’t test diastatic power on Golden Ale, because it isn’t part of the general specification for that quality.
Our brewmaster told me that on average Golden Ale has some activity and the diastatic power is about 20 intner -> ~54 WK.

This is considered a specialty grain as opposed to a base malt. Base malts give you the diastatic power you need for conversion. This grain provides more of a cereal note and more body to your wort and as stated in the description should only consist of up to 10% of your grain bill. cheers. #p3brews

As a type of Dextrine malt it should have a diastatic power of zero. Also why recommendations call for a sub 10% portion of the grain bill due to lack of enzymes.

This malt is meant to be a replacement for Carafoam or Carapils in a grain bill, so it is unlikely to have any diastatic power.

Well it does increase my ABV by a bit alright but it's more about improving the body and head retention of my Ales.
