I searched but couldn't find the answer to this. Does a crystal malt contribute to body, head retention the same as carapils? In other words if your recipe for a simple american pale ale was 8 lbs 2 row and 1 lb of crystal 60 (which I know contributes non fermentable sweetness) would it help body and head retention to also include a half lb of carapils or does the crystal 60 adequately cover this?
Thanks!
