Mild malt and amber malt

[mr hoppy]

Has any one used these - together, or at all?

I have .5kg amber. Not used it yet.
You're welcome to some.

Cheers John - I might take you up on that.

If you need more than .5kg I have more ( uncrushed) that I would gladly trade for other grain type Vienna/Pilsner/ or others???

Amber is one of my favorite malts. I use it more than most of the crystals. Give a lovely rich color and body. Nice crust of toast taste when used in high enough percentages. I always use amber in my porters , stouts and barleywines.
Love the stuff. Always have some in the backup.

Thanks Nigel!

How much is high enough?

Also, I've seen a few places that amber malt can be bitter unless it's aged. Is that really an issue in your experience?
