132-170 °L - Viking Malt - Viking Coffee Malt is produced by roasting from pilsner malt. The amylolytic activity of Coffee Malt is zero. The amount of fermentable extract is rather low. "Coffee" refers primarily to the malt's color, not its flavor. This malt will lend various levels of aroma, a deep red color, and a nutty / roasted taste, depending on the amount used. Aromas and tastes of coffee and chocolate can be found and they are well balancing the overall taste.

Coffee Malt is mainly included in Porters and Stouts, but it can also be used for any other dark colored beers like Dark Ales due to its strong coloring value. Coffee Malt contributes roasted flavors and aromas with hints of dark chocolate and coffee in any beer. Already with rather low dosage portions a remarkable increase in color can be found together with changes in flavor and aroma. Typical dosage rate of Coffee Malt is normally under 5–10%.
