Torrified Wheat

Post by markbatten » Wed Jan 16, 2008 1:00 pm

Can anyone tell me the potential extract of torrified wheat?
I can find the colour on the forum and websites but not what I can get out of it?
(its probably somewhere obvious)
Thanks

It's the same as for pale malt....more or less.

They also give Roast Barley as 268 - that's not right is it? I always thought dark roasted grains didn't contribute extract (a quick check of the first paragraph of chapter 7 of the BBOB seems to confirm that). :?

Feel free to shoot me down in flames, though. :D

Graham Wheeler's tables show Roasted Barley at 270 but also justifies with just 10% fermentability (which is a great word) ... I'm guessing every ingredient must have a lab extract rate for purposes of recipe formulation .. I'm no scientist but anything you put in to the recipe can affect the outcome and therefore have an extraction rate of some description ..
