... and how do you use it (mash? steep?) to get a rich chocolaty flavor?
I've used Great Western, Briess and Dingemann's with less than satisfactory results.

Thanks in advance, and Brew Hard!

We use Pauls and Muntons Chocolate malt. They seem to be good malts but then again I haven't tried much else.

Currently using William Crisp chocolate, good chocolate flavor and some slight roastiness. I believe it is about a 600L malt vs. some other chocolates are 350-400L. Did not like the Pauls for chocolate malt (but do like the other malts they make), Briess is ok and they have a regular choco malt and a darker choco malt.

I had good results with Briess two-row chocolate in my robust porter. In my new startup, I think I'm going to give Crisp a try.

I have used Briess, and currently use Hugh Baird Chocolate Malt. No problem with either for me.

I use the Bairds- color is 450 to 500 ASBC. I have used the Briess when GW was out of the Bairds- didn't like it as much, lots of husk and busted-up grain :( . I always add it to the mill with all the other specialty grains, and mash in a single infusion.
