What's your opinion on Weyermann's two Pilsner malts?
I'm hearing conflicting stories about having to do a step mash. Someone is saying the standard Pilsner needs a step mash otherwise it will be cloudy as hell and others say that the Bohemian pilsner is less modified and therefore needs a step mash.
Weyermann seem to have removed the malt analysis from their website but they do say that the standard pilsner is highly modified, which would seem to indicate the above step mash requirement for the standard is not correct.
My experience with Bohemian so far doing an infusion mash is a little bit of hit and miss in the clarity department. Haven't tried the standard yet but considering buying a bag of it.
I've done heaps on searching on here, Google and other forums and can't find a definitive answer. Is there much of a difference in modification between these two malts or are they just different varieties? Anyone got a preference of the two?
