Raw (unmalted) Wheat
Raw unmalted wheat (soft white wheat) has a pronounced grain flavour and pale straw colour. It is used in many traditional Belgian styles to add head retention, haze, and flavor. The starch is not gelatinized and the protein content is high, so a cereal mash and/or protein rest may be required.
