Averagely Perfect Dubbel - Poll #8 - Cara/Crystal Malts

-> Poll #7 <- determined that D-90 (and not D-180) Syrup will advance (inseparably with one or more ingredients from "CaraPils and/or Other Cara/Crystal Malt(s)") to a future combo poll that will feature at least one ingredient from "Munich and/or Vienna Malt(s)" and at least one ingredient from "Aromatic/Aroma Malt."

This poll will determine what "CaraPils and/or Other Cara/Crystal Malt(s)" will advance (inseparably) along with D-90.

You can select more than one choice. The #1 overall choice will automatically advance. Beyond that, any other choices that get votes from at least 30% of respondents will advance to another poll to determine exact combinations that advance further. Want something that's not listed? Write it in. If your first choice is losing badly, consider jumping to a similar choice that has more votes. If one or more choices that feature ranges of color (or more than one malt in the choice) are selected to advance, there will be a drilldown poll(s) to determine exact color(s).

I recommend you think about this in terms of not only your personal preferences, but also in the context of the ABV and Final Gravity (and thus the attenuation) already selected, malt already selected, and malts and syrup still possible, as well as any possible yeast strain selection that might be kicking around in your head.

This poll will be open for 48 hours.

Since Caraminuch is starting with a handicap, at the end I'll count up the Caramunich write-ins, and if they total at least half of what they would have needed to advance to a crystal combo poll, I'll advance it. It would still have to survive that combo poll on its own merits, but it would get a fair shake.

 

What do people say it does? (Based on the context of your reply, I expected the article to say something about Carapils not improving foam retention. But it doesn't (say that).)
