Thought I had a pound of aromatic grain for a doplebock. turns out I used it previously.
Any suggestions on substitutes?
Biscuit
2 row
More Munich
Light Wheat
Carapils
Honey malt
Melanoidin

Using loads of Munich and some 1/2 lb of Carapils already.
Starting to heat water. Starter is ready.

I'm probably confused but aren't aromatic and melanoidin basically the same or similar from two different maltsers?

I've tasted them side-by-side and think Aromatic has a lighter flavor profile.

Really prefer Aromatic. Tough to sub for. Maybe Biscuit and Melanoidin combo to sub for Aromatic.
