What the heck, a ginger beer would be good for Christmas, I'm gonna have a go at a gallon of this over the weekend. I've got Amber malt, I think it's probably Crisp's
Using English ingredients:
10 lb Crisp's Best Pale at 3 L
2.5 lb Crisp's Amber Malt 27.5 L
....As far as I can tell, it's spot on.

So Amber is your "Toasted Malt". Crisps is a good match, Minch is a bit darker, Fawcett's is much too dark.

Job done.

Me too. I've even got some ginger in the fridge pending a post-diet chicken phaal. I haven't seen ginger beer in France and I used to enjoy it.
Come to think of it, a bit if chilli, coriander, cardamom and fenugreek as well wouldn't go amiss. Perfect beer for curry. You'd only need a bowl of rice and some poppadoms. 😋😋
 
I did a version of this today with 150g of ginger in a gallon which is roughly the same as the 1 kilo in 19L, so a lot of ginger. Ended up a bit of a user-upper recipe.

Now thinking about what food I can add the 'spent' ginger to
