<p>VaoB4l: </p> <hr /> <div>The '''Standard Reference Method''', abbreviated as '''SRM''' is the color system used by brewers to measure the color of finished beer and also [[Malt|malts]]. SRM is historically related to the British measurement [[Lovibond]], and the two systems are equivalent for home brewing applications. SRM is also sometimes referred to '''Standard Research Method''' by some books. Below are some approximate SRM color ranges.<br /> <br /> 1.0 - 3.0 SRM - Pale yellow color<br /> 3.0 - 4.5 SRM - Medium yellow<br /> 4.5 - 7.5 SRM - Gold<br /> 7.5 - 9.0 SRM - Amber<br /> 9.0 - 11.0 SRM - Copper<br /> 11.0 - 14.0 SRM - Red/Brown<br /> 14.0 - 19.0 SRM - Brown<br /> 20.0 SRM - Black<br /> <br /> A separate color system, called the [[European Brewing Convention]] (EBC) is used to measure beer color in some places in Europe.<br /> ==See Also==<br /> * [[Lovibond]]<br /> * [[European Brewing Convention]]<br /> * [[Estimating Color]]<br /> <br /> ==External References==<br /> * [http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/wrucksterpage/color.htm A Beer Color Chart]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Glossary]]</div>
