I believe that problem has been solved by modern malting and roasting methods.
 
I have never smelled or tasted anything that DMS is supposed to resemble and I brew with Pils very often. Maybe I'm just not personally able to detect it, who knows.
 
It's reduced faster than you might think. 90 mins is probably overkill even for a 100% pils malt grist (system dependent of course). Many folks don't boil longer than 60 even with pils malt without issue. But if there's a concern it's an easy preventative fix.
 
Ive never used pilz before so i guess im ignoeant I'm gonna go with 90 min just incase. Thanks guys
