I am about to brew a Pale Ale. I am putting together a recipe, and I am wondering about the difference between Pale Ale and Pilsener Malts. I read somewher on here that they are almost identical. but the Pilsener Malt is a little bit light coloured.
I am hoping to produce a good 'session' beer, and as such I am hoping for something fairly light in colour, so I am thinking of using Pilsener Malt.
Has anyone noticed any other differences between these malts?
Also I am thinking of bitterness. Can somebody identify a common commerical beer with around 30 IBUs, and one with about 40 IBUs so I roughyl know how bitter these values are?
