Great, another stupid base malt question... I like to keep a lot of grains on hand. 6 base grains and probably a couple dozen different crystal, kilned and roasted grains.
To the point...I've always used roughly 3L 2-row Pale Ale/MO as my usual base grain for most styles unless Pilsner is specified.
Should I consider adding Brewers/2-row/Pale (regular "non-ale" pale) to the mix? It's about the same Lovibond as Pilsner but I assume it's a different kinda grain/malt. Maybe close but different.
All my recipes that call for "2-row" or "Pale" I've been using Pale-Ale or MO cause that's the only kind I buy.
I don't mind having another base malt on hand.
Is "Brewers" "2-Row" and "Pale" all around 1-2L and basically a different style/type grain than "Pale Ale" and "Marris Otter" around 3-4L? Something in between Pilsner and MO/Pale-Ale?
