I am brewing a porter today and the recipe calls for chocolate malt. I find a great range in Lovibond and flavor descriptions from maltster to maltster. I would really like to find a chocolate malt that has more cocoa flavor and less burnt and coffee flavors. What are your experiences? Recommendations? The recipe currently uses Crisp. So I will start there if all else fails.
 
If you can find a pale chocolate malt(200*L), it will give you the flavor profile you're looking for. The regular chocolate malt(350*L), has the roasty notes.
