Hi Ben, you have it exactly right. The problem arises because Weyermann have a registered trade mark on Carahell (hell means light in German) and all the other maltsers have had to come up with inventive names to avoid infringement. Carahell or whatever is a very pale crystal around 20 to 40 EBC and is a classic German style.

any idea if hoepfner /Weyermann have a cara-vienna? named as somthing else?

 

[wessmith]

Ben, CaraVienna or CaraVienne is a light crystal malt in the same colour range as Carahell etc Once again a different name for the same type of malt.
There is no magic in making good crystal malts - but somewhere on the way through the marketing department the embellishment begins...

Hi JM, unfortunately very little demand for any of the German crystals and hence no stock but still stock TF and of course JWM crystals.
