The Magic of Pilsner Malt
Pilsner malt is one of the least modified malt types on the market today, and unless you’re making a German style lager or something light, you’ve probably overlooked this delicious base malt for something better modified.

But there is also extra process involved with this malt type, and it can be a little intimidating. This week we’ll talk about different processes to get the most from your Pilsner malts in any beer style, how to ward off DMS and what that even means, and why you should give pils a try in your next beer!
