What color is Sherwin Williams Malted Milk?
Sherwin Williams Malted Milk SW 6057 is a light, muted beige with a noticeable blush-pink cast that keeps it from reading flat or yellow. Its soft warmth is especially apparent in daylight, while lower or warmer artificial light can bring out its gentle rosy-taupe side. Malted Milk is well suited to bedrooms, living rooms, and dining areas where a pale neutral should still have some color presence. Pair it with creamy white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, and aged brass for a layered, grounded look. On cabinetry or built-ins, this shade can create a subtle contrast against brighter white walls without appearing overly dark.

LRV of Malted Milk
Malted Milk has an LRV of 61.56% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 61.56%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
