90 min boil on BB pale?

[RelaxedBrewer]

I picked up a sack of Barrett Burston Pale in a bulk buy recently. Is it recommended to do a 90 min boil to reduce DMS with this malt as it is with pilsner?

Yeah, I does help reduce DMS. I have found It also benefits from a 90min mash aswell.

Definitely a long mash benefits. As to DMS I have never encountered it after five years of AG and many hundreds of brews.

Yeah, I did 60min boils for the first few years of AG with pils malt and never noticed anything that tasted like DMS. I do 90 now, but not because of DMS issues.

Thanks guys,

I ended up boiling for ~1hr15. On a side note I also got my highest efficiency ever. Not sure if it wash the change of mash steps to mash a little longer or the malt.
Do other people get a high efficiency when using this malt?

You should not be getting any DMS with that Pale malt even with a 30min boil. I believe you will only get it with the lightest of the light kilned pilsner malts.

Apart from DMS reduction, what else do you achieve from a 90 min boil vs 60 mins, apart from a higher gas or electricity bill ?

Pale and pilsner malts are pretty much the same thing from BB. With high modified malts today dms is not really a massive problem

I read it on the internet so it must be true, that's why I do it.

JW malts, which are a similar beast, I've not had DMS issues with, either Pils or Pale Ale Malt.

What is the reason your doing 90 minute boils now then?

Thanks

Wort concentration is probably the main reason to do a 90min boil IMO

I like to get a good violent boil before adding the hops, so I was boiling for 75 anyway, so I just went to 90 mins. I can't notice a difference in 60vs90 in flavour aroma colour etc but I just like to do it that way. Preference I guess.
