Ok,
I am looking into getting some BestMalz, probably Pilsen Malt and some Thomas-Fawcett Optic malt (I am guessing this is one of their Pale Malt offerings). In trying to figure out how to relate the Kolbach index to the Lintner scale. But according to this:
"European terminology. The EBC unit of measurement for diastatic power is °WK (Windisch-Kolbach units). The value of °WK can be converted to °Lintner by the formula DP °Lintner = (°WK + 16) / 3.5." ( Formula)
and from the BestMalz site for Pilsen malt:
BM Specs
WK=38 ==> (38+16)/3.5 = 15.4???
and the Thomas-Fawcett site:
T-F Specs
I can't make head nor tails out of it. Can anyone help?
