Raw Rahr Unmalted Wheat offers a pronounced grain flavor and is a popular choice for traditional Belgian beer styles. Its inclusion contributes to desirable cloudiness and enhanced head retention in the final brew.
Given its raw state, the starch in unmalted wheat is not gelatinized, and its protein content is notably high. Brewers utilizing this ingredient may find a cereal mash and/or a protein rest beneficial or necessary, depending on their specific brewing process and desired outcome.
