Produced by Weyermann Malzfabrik in Bamberg using the time-honoured floor malting process — where barley is spread across large malting floors and turned by hand rather than processed through modern drum equipment — this malt delivers a depth of flavour, complexity, and authenticity that conventionally malted Pilsner malt simply cannot replicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets floor malted malt apart from standard drum-malted alternatives is the slower, more gradual modification that the traditional process produces. Floor malting allows the germinating barley to develop at its own pace across a shallow, naturally ventilated bed — resulting in a malt with a more complex enzymatic profile, a richer and more nuanced flavour character, and the subtle rustic depth that defines the great lagers of Bohemia. Kilned to 3–5 EBC, this malt is brilliantly pale — delivering the crystal-clear, golden colour that is the hallmark of a classic Czech Pilsner — while contributing a soft, rounded malt sweetness with a delicate bready complexity that a modern base malt cannot match. Its full enzymatic power converts cleanly as a single malt grist and supports adjunct additions with ease, making it equally at home in a traditional decoction mash or a simplified single-infusion brew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor any brewer serious about authenticity in Czech lager brewing, Weyermann Floor Malted Bohemian Pilsner is the base malt the style was built on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrushed or uncrushed malt\u003cbr\u003eAvailable crushed or uncrushed. Crushed malt should be used within 2–3 weeks for optimal freshness. Uncrushed malt retains full freshness for significantly longer when stored in a cool, dry environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlavor \u0026amp; Aroma\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Soft, rounded malt sweetness\u003cbr\u003e • Delicate bready and rustic complexity\u003cbr\u003e • Clean, pale base — brilliant golden colour contribution\u003cbr\u003e • Subtle depth from traditional floor malting process\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLager: Czech Pilsner, Bohemian Pilsner, German Pils, Helles, Märzen, Kellerbier\u003cbr\u003eAle: Kölsch, Blonde Ale, Golden Ale\u003cbr\u003eSpecialty: Saison, Farmhouse Ale, any style where an authentic, characterful pale base is desired\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable as a single base malt or in combination with specialty malts.
