Riverbend developed its color and aroma to carry further than a standard pale malt, and the result leads with caramel and toasted bread rather than the clean, neutral character most base malts are built for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is unusual among six-row malts. Most are kilned pale and chosen purely for enzyme power, while this one is taken further in the kiln, which is where the caramel and biscuit come from. At 35 PPG and 8 °Lovibond it still carries a grain bill on its own, and its 80 °Lintner diastatic power converts its own starch plus a share of specialty grain alongside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFlavor \u0026amp; Aroma Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaramel sweetness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToasted bread crust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiscuit and light nuttiness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight toast with no roast or char\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep gold to light amber color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt a low percentage it works as a seasoning malt, adding a caramel and biscuit layer to a beer built on a pale base.

Riverbend's own guidance is a Belgian Dubbel built on it as the base, or an Ordinary Bitter using it at a lower percentage. Around 10 to 20% it adds caramel and toast to a pale base; from 40 to 60% it defines the beer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts diastatic power is moderate rather than high, so if your recipe leans on a large share of unmalted adjuncts or low-enzyme specialty malts, pair it with a well-modified pale base malt to carry the conversion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePPG (Points Per Pound Per Gallon): 35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: 8 °Lovibond (6–10 SRM)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiastatic Power: 80 °Lintner minimum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum Extract (Fine Grind, Dry Basis): 78%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtein: 11.6%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrain: Six-row barley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlavor Notes: Biscuity, caramel, light toast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsage Rate: 10–60% of grain bill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeer Styles: Belgian Dubbel, bitters, brown and amber ales, saison\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're building a Belgian Dubbel on it as a base, adding a caramel layer to an English bitter, or working it into a bourbon mash bill, Heritage brings toasted bread and caramel without the roast of a darker specialty malt.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clawhammer Supply","offers":[{"title":"4 oz \/ Unmilled","offer_id":46525716005062,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-4oz","price":0.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 oz \/ Unmilled","offer_id":46525716037830,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-8oz","price":1.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb \/ Unmilled","offer_id":46525716070598,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-1lb","price":2.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 lb \/ Unmilled","offer_id":46525716103366,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-5lb","price":11.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 lb \/ Unmilled","offer_id":46525716136134,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-10lb","price":23.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 oz \/ Milled","offer_id":46525716168902,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-4oz-milled","price":0.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 oz \/ Milled","offer_id":46525716201670,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-8oz-milled","price":1.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb \/ Milled","offer_id":46525716234438,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-1lb-milled","price":2.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 lb \/ Milled","offer_id":46525716267206,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-5lb-milled","price":11.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 lb \/ Milled","offer_id":46525716299974,"sku":"6-row-malted-barley-riverbend-10lb-milled","price":23.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/6682\/files\/heritage-6-row-malted-barley.png?v=1785192961","url":"https:\/\/www.clawhammersupply.com\/products\/heritage-6-row-malted-barley-riverbend","provider":"Clawhammer Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
