Being curious, but can anyone tell me the taste difference between de-husked Carafa 1, 2 and 3? Is it the roastiness?, and if so, how much of a difference is there? Thanks
I think so. I did a Bipa two years running and used 1 the first year 2 the serving year. The 1 turned out lighter and not as roasty. I probably used too much both times but there was quite a difference.
So which one would you recommend for a BIPA ? I presume you cold steep it ?
I've used carafa 3 special for my black ipa and I mash it
I've used 3 in a porter and mash it, very low on roastiness
I think 3 would be perfect for a Bipa. I've used it to darken a dunkel hefe
