So guys, I’m trying to find a way to see what the difference is between using carapils for head retention vs just using more carbonation to “push” the head out of the beer. If my beers seem kind of flat when the head dissipates I’m thinking that I don’t have enough Co2 in my beers or there’s not enough ability in my grain bill to hold a head. What’s a good rule of thumb for having carapils in recipes vs volumes of Co2?
My lighter beers I like to have a lingering head and not just exposed to oxygen, but all my other ones with bigger grain bills are ok. Just looking to get more professional opinion. Kind of a niche question.
What’s a good rule of thumb for having carapils in recipes vs volumes of Co2? What works for some who have great heads that gets people talking?
