Possible Substitutions

Since Abbey Malt is a unique blend of characteristics, there's no single perfect substitute. However, depending on the aspects you want to capture, here are a few options:
 
For similar colour and some sweetness:
  • Caraaroma: This malt offers a similar amber colour and contributes a touch of sweetness and caramel notes.
For similar biscuit character:
  • Biscuit Malt: This malt provides a classic biscuit flavour profile that can replace some of the malty depth of Abbey Malt 
For a combination of sweetness and biscuit character:
  • Aromatic Malt: This malt offers a balance of biscuit-like flavours and some honeyed sweetness, coming closer to the overall profile of Abbey Malt.
Mixing and Matching:
  • You can also experiment with combining biscuit malt and either Caraaroma or a touch of Crystal Malt to achieve a colour and sweetness profile closer to Abbey Malt.
