Weyermann Sinamar Liquid Malt Coloring Weyermann Sinamar is a liquid malt color extract used to darken wort or beer without adding the roast bitterness you would get from a larger roasted-grain addition. Weyermann makes Sinamar from CARAFA Special, then debitteres and filters it through a natural process. Use Sinamar when a beer needs color correction, color adjustment, or deeper dark color while keeping the flavor profile cleaner. Weyermann lists it as pH stable, not causing turbidity, gluten-free, and free of fermentable sugars or alcohol. How much Sinamar should I use? Weyermann's dosage guidance is 14 g / 11.9 mL per 1 hL of beer or wort to increase color by 1 EBC. For barrel-scale guidance, Weyermann lists 1.5 oz / 1.25 fl oz per 1 bbl to increase color by 1 degree Lovibond. Best uses Color correction in lager, ale, porter, stout, bock, dark wheat beer, and Black IPA. Darkening beer while limiting added roast bitterness.
