I have a blonde ale extract recipe that calls for 1 lb carapils for steeping grains and I happen to have 1 lb of carahell on hand. Will substituting make a big difference in the beer?
+1 to what everyone said.
Based on my understanding (i could be wrong) carapils will provide more for a bump in head retention then anything else. Carahell will also give you help in the head retention department, but to a lesser degree, but will add some of those malty/toffee notes that most crystal malts provide.
