Durstmalz | Pilsen Malt | per lb

Durstmalz Pilsen Malt is a classic German base malt known for its very light color, mild flavor, and delicate sweet malt character. With excellent enzymatic power and dependable brewing performance, it provides an ideal foundation for crisp, pale beers where a clean malt profile and brilliant golden color are desired.

Its gentle malt sweetness stays subtle in the finished beer, allowing noble hops, delicate yeast character, and fermentation profiles to remain at the forefront. This makes Durstmalz Pilsen particularly well suited to traditional European lagers and other light-colored beer styles where heavier malt flavors would be out of place.

With its high enzymatic activity, Durstmalz Pilsen provides the conversion power needed to serve as the primary base malt in a recipe while also working well with specialty malts and adjuncts. Use it as the foundation of a traditional Pilsner or combine it with Vienna, Munich, wheat, or specialty malts to build more complex grain bills.
