My next recipe attempt. I have never done a 90 minute boil nor used Pilsner malt. so this should be interesting. It was taken from another forum and adjusted to fit what I perceive as my efficiency of my system. Thoughts?
No need to do a 90 min boil. That idea is as outdated as rotary dial telephones
That is what somebody else said on another forum. But another poster said something about DMS being a factor if boiling for less than 90 minutes?
Not In my many batches of experience with pils malt. I have tested 60 v 90 min boils many times. Now I always do 60. Eliminating DMS is about boil vigor, not boil length.
Yeah, you don’t need to boil for 90 minutes to mitigate DMS. Get a nice boil to start, then a calm, rolling boil for an hour.
The only time I boil longer is to concentrate the wort.
60 max on the boil and often just 30 minutes, anymore. I do have to watch IBU’s with the short boil, but it works fine.
I was an advocate for 90 minute boils with pils malt too because of what I had read, a firm believer. Through brewing many batches of pilsner, both 90/60 mins I’ve come to the conclusion it isn’t necessary. A vigorous boil works at diminishing DMS.
