Would anyone actually use it for a base malt? I know honey malt will convert itself...

Qhrumphf · May 21, 2012

It's meant to be a base malt. So yes.

Munich?

Qhrumphf · May 21, 2012

Not Munich.

If y'all can't get it after this, I don't know how to help you without just flat out telling you the answer:

It's not an English malt, but similar to it (biscuity is a big one)
It's not US 2 row pale malt, but can easily be confused with it.
It's often marketed as a lower-cost domestic substitute for English malts.
I know at least Briess, Great Western and Rahr make it, and probably others.
