Description
The French continental pilsner malt, and the base a great many Belgian and farmhouse grists are actually built on — softer and a shade breadier than a German pilsner malt, with the enzyme to carry sugar and unmalted grain alongside it. MFB publish no analysis, so the figures here are the median of the pilsner malts this catalog already carries.
