He was saying his 'dark beers' were really dark and inquiring about the Lovibond for Roasted Barley that you would get from say Maryland Homebrew compared to some you buy from another source. MDHB should have all the vitals on the grain you buy just ask Chris. 350L to 500L...That would make a big difference in the color of the two beers. I've seen breweries that the only difference between their House Pale or Blonde is a little Roasted Barley for color. I would have taken your American Brown Recipe from before and switched the Chocolate for a split of Roast Barley and Crystal 120L and that would have been a winner...at least for my taste. You should make that for MASHOUT! TR and I just had this discussion.
