Malt Substitution Chart

Every maltster has their own terminology. We try to use consistent names for all malts we stock to make it easier to pick. We’ve created a chart of brand equivalents to help you pick the right grains when recipes use specific brand names. Don’t be fooled, “Caramunich” is just the name Weyermann give their medium crystal malts!
