I know it's nothing amazing. I just cant find much info about it online, even at the muntons site (which sucks for info in general). I am making an Amber ale. Was going to use just plane ol' two row as my base malt and then saw this at the LHBS. Can it be used as my base malt? I would assume so, the lovibond is low but I have no clue if it can self convert.
The only thing I could find was from the LD Carlson site and it said: " AMBER MALT
Has a light, biscuity dry flavor and can be used to product [sic] Bitter and Mild Ales and sweet Stouts as well as the traditional London Porters that have come back into favor recently."
Sooo? I know mild ales are similar to ambers..thoughts? Has anyone used it before? I've searched the forum and I see lots of people who have used the DME version but not as a base. I don't know if there is a difference or not.
