Tried the HH pilsner not as good as Wey FMalted in my opinion, but reflective in price. Pity as HH pale is my go to pale now after trying nearly 10 others.

I have no idea but the same question.
I normally use castle pilsner and thinking about switching to weyermann pilsner for lagers etc. The castle has a lot of stones that break your heart when milling.

However I have a helles going right now with minch lager and I have to say, it's starting to taste good, even only 2 weeks in.

I'd a load of stones in the bottom of my kettle last week and I was wondering where they came from, now that you say it I did have Castles aromatic malt in it.

Surely Shirley, Stones in Malt is a massive commercial no-no.
Remember: The Nationals are just round the corner - time to get brewing

Very unusual to see stones as most float off grain before malting

Some were the size of Pebbles for me. Awful grinding nose when you hit them. Had it in two different bags as well. :/
