Brewing Classic Styles - Grain alternatives

Post #1 made 10 years ago
Hi

I've just bought the book brewing classic styles and I'm going to try my first BIAB shortly with one of the simple English Pale Ale's.
A couple of the grains in many of the English bitters I can't find on a couple of websites of local brewing stores - the two are:
Special Roast (50 L)
Aromatic (20 L)
Does this go by a different name outside of the US or if it's not available, what do others suggest I use as a substitute?


Thanks

You could substitute them for similarly matched roasted level, but it may not end up being the same beer though.

Special roast is a "BRIESS" product here

Aromatic is a "DINGEMANS" product here.

A quick look on craftbrewer shows you can get them there, just be careful about the colour ratings (EBC, Lovibond, SRM).
