With its black color and distinct flavor profile, it offers a rich coffee taste that influences the overall taste of the beer. The malt contributes roasty and nutty notes with hints of dark chocolate, creating depth and complexity in the brew.

This particular malt is often used in stouts, porters, and other dark beers where its properties can shine through. It enhances the body of the beer while adding a subtle bitterness to balance out sweetness. Light Coffee Malt also provides aromas reminiscent of freshly brewed coffee, giving an inviting aroma to the finished product.
