Munich Malt and Crystal Wheat Malt

Post by Stonechat » Wed Jan 14, 2009 9:20 pm

Bought some of the above grains from Barley Bottom to experiment with, but they are not featured on GW's excellent Beer Engine. Can anyone advise what grains have the same extraction potential as Munich and Crystal Wheat?
I know the colour calculation will be corrupted, but just want the finished beer to match the planned OG, and so far they have been spot on.

Cheers. :D

Munich malt seems to be similar to Pilsner malt in extract potential and is often around 20EBC. Crystal Wheat is similar in extract potential to regular crystal malt and is a similar colour (around 110-120EBC).
