Crystal malt and fermentability.

Simple question. Does crystal malt have any fermentable sugars? I thought not, that the point was to add caramelised sugars to increase sweetness and body but playing with Beer Engine, the ABV goes up as I increase crystal malt.

You still do get fermentables sugars from crystal malt.
This is an interesting thread that I read on another forum a few weeks ago http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f128/testin ... lt-208361/
