Loading... Please wait...Caramel Malts are also known as Crystal Malts (usually in European influenced brewing)
Basically they are "mashed" for you, therefore they don't have to be converted. They are
available in a wide range of colors and flavors (the higher the lovibond, the darker the
color and the more intense the flavor).
Caramel 10 can be described as having a Candylike Sweetness, and mild caramel flavor.
It's golden in color and it also helps with head retention.
Lovibond: 10
Country of origin: USA

I can't source Crystal 10 locally so I always pick some up on an order. It's a great addition to any lighter-colored beer that you want to add a little note of toastiness to.
If you haven't ever brewed up a batch of Ed's HPA, then you definitely need to do so. Do it now. Order some Crystal 10. Do it. Women will throw themselves at you and your town will erect a statue in your honor if you order Crystal 10 right now.
By "women" I mean "nothing" and by "statue" I also mean "nothing" -- but you'll end up with beer!
