The aim of this study was to assess the possibility of shaping properties of beers at the stage of brewing wort production with the use of various types of special malts (chocolate pale, chocolate dark, wheat chocolate, brown barley) and roasted barley grains. The carbohydrate profile, polyphenols content, antioxidant capacity, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural content, and the browning index level were analyzed. Statistical analysis showed significant differences in the values of the examined features between the samples. The sugars whose content was most affected by the addition of special malts were maltose and dextrins. The polyphenol content in worts with 10% of additive was 176.02&ndash:397.03 mg GAE/L, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) 1.32&ndash:2.07 mmol TE/L, and capacity to reduction radical generated from 2,2&prime:-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS&bull:+) 1.46&ndash:2.70 mmol TE/L. Wort with 40% dark malt showed the highest content of polyphenolic compounds and antioxidant activity (FRAP and ABTS&bull:+). The HMF content and the browning index value were higher for wort with the addition of darker-colored malts (EBC) and increased with increasing dark malt dose.
