So was going to put down a Porter tomorrow and I thought i had some light crystal in the cupboard and it turns out i don't :p. I have the following available:
Bairds Dark Crystal
Wey Carared
Wey Dark Munich

Question is which of these (or combination of these) would you replace it with? I was thinking color isn't really that important considering its a porter can i just use a bit less dark crystal?
 
Light crystal would be best subbed with carared i would think, same EBC and its also a crystal malt so you should be fine with that.
 
Carared is pretty light in color 40-50 EBC, a lot lighter than the dark crystal anyway.
