by the forums i read, corn syrup and maltodextrin seem to both be used for the same thing- body and head. so what is the actual differences? does one give a different flavour than the other? is one more fermentable than the other? whats the go?
What you mean? all the same as far as you know?Yep.Yep and Yep...
One really big dif. Syrup is liquid and maltodex is a powdered form. Pretty sure the same extract value applies in GU's and fermentability is about the same, colour may differ between syrup and dried product though.
Screwtop, that is something I could never work out. Normally syrup means a liquid, but I have always seen bags at homebrew shops labelled corn syrup and they contain a powder.
