Special X Malt

[Stephe]

Anyone have any experience with best maltz special X malt? I was thinking of trying it it in a brown ale with some red x and chocolate malt.

That sounds interesting. My understanding is that it's much the same stuff as Special B and Weyermann's Special W. Simpson"s Double Roasted is the same thing, too.

I have used it and it will go well with what you are suggesting. As AA says it is like special B etc

I've used it a few times to add a touch of sweetness, never more than 3-4% of the recipe but that just my taste. Had a similar profile to Special B, I got a slight raisen taste. I got the impression Special B was a little stronger in taste.
