I'm comparing two wee heavy's I've brewed...one with malto dextrin and one without. The difference in "mouth feel" is pretty amazing...the one with MD seems very smooth and creamy. So I'm wondering, when you go to all grain, do you still use malto dextrin to get that mouthfeel, or is there a grain substitute (Cara-Pils?).
 
Personally, I use some CaraPils on damn near everything! I began when I did my last few partials, and really stuck with it when I went all grain.
