Colour °L:
1,4-1,8

Flavour:
Mild malty

Rate:
Up to 100 %

Usage:
All types of beer



Light in color and low in protein. Our Pilsen is made from the finest European two-row barley. This malt is well modified and can easily be mashed with a single – temperature infusion. Due to the high enzymatic power it can be used up to 100% of the grain bill in all types of beer.

What colour should this be?
I cut open the bag and dough'd in and the water went red/brown, like dark.
Have I been given the wrong grain?
I was all set for a German style lager and I carried on so.
Perle and Hallertau..
All went well, just the colour tho..
 
Dingemans pils whenever I have used it has been as expected. Maybe a tad more golden than weyermann but we're talking beesdicks in my memory and nothing red.

See how final beer comes out.
Just pils in your recipe?

Yep 100%
 
Did the overall wort or OG sample look red or was it just dough in?
 
It's dark all over. Like brown shoe polish for lack of a better description..

Around 20 SRM in Palmers book
 
Where did the malt come from?
If a hydrometer sample is looking red, sounds like you've been given the wrong stuff.
 
You haven't mentioned the colour of the grain yet. Outside? Colour when crushed? I've used Ding Pils in a kolsch and it certainly wasn't anywhere near 20 SRM.
 
I'll take a sample tomorrow and post a photo..

But I am leaning towards the wrong grain type..
 
Looking at the ibrew website maybe it was really Dingemanns aromatic.

It says in the description that it gives a deep reddish colour.

It does however say that it is low on diastatic power so if you used this 100% you should get poor efficiency.
 
Take it to the lhbs and suggest it's their mix-up. Hopefully the will provide you with the right malt, free of charge and you can use that one to blend.

What's the flavour like?
