crystal malt 60l vs english crystal 60-75l

[cbfan87]

Was shopping around online and noticed austin homebrew does not carry crystal 60l. But they have english crystal 60-75...?

These have got to be different right? Is english crystal different than american? Even with similar color?

Thanks!

The English Crystals I've had taste roastier or toastier than the american versions.

I've used Briess for the American and Munton's for the English.

Crystal malts from one maltster to another will be a little different even ones in the same country. But, I use them interchangeably unless I am trying to make a strictly British or American beer etc.
