Was wanting to do an dubbel. But don’t having any pils.

Pils is bit lighter in color and lower in protein. I think you’d be alright using it in a Dubbel.
It’d be fine for a dubbel, thats a beer that gets its character more from the adjuncts/crystal and yeast anyway.
Glug I’d have guessed pils malt would be higher in protein, judging from the giant eggdrop soup trub I get from the stuff.

It looks like it’s maybe a half point lower looking at the typical analysis sheet at Brewers Supply Group’s site:
Can’t argue with that. My water regimen is probably just perfect for the light worts, that and I suppose the lightest wort will show the coagulated protein the best.
Thanks.
The girlfriend will be happy. See likes the belgians.
