According to Crisp: Crystal and Cara malts are roasted straight after germination. This stews the starchy endosperm of the grain and creates a layer of caramelisation and browning. Sweet, toffee and caramel flavours can be developed, as well as red hues of colour to your brew. The Cara malts are lower in colour and have longer chain sugars, whereas the crystals give increasingly darker colours and caramel and toffee flavours.
