  • This is a "how it's made" that explains the process of creating finely crafted malt (barley corn, rye, and wheat, and so on) for commercial craft brewers, distilleries, and even home brewers.
    After growing and harvesting and cleaning by the farmers is complete, it gets shipped to a "maltster" where the grain is first heated and moistened. This causes it to start germinating and sprout (which creates enzymes that brewers need to produce sugar from starch later in the brewing process). Germination is stopped by introduction of heat and reduction of moisture, which preserves the enzymes. The grain is then cleaned, toasted, bagged, sent to brewers and distillers who use it to make delicious whiskies, beers, and more.
    Malt houses like Riverbend take this process to an insanely detailed level of precision, which creates unique properties and flavor profiles in the beer and whiskies made with their malt. If you've ever wanted to know why Scotch and Bourbon and Tennessee whiskey taste so good, learning about how malt is made is a good place to start. In fact every type of beer and spirits utilize malt for their production. Cocktails benefit from this process as well, because the alcohol used to make cocktails is also made with the help of malt!

    As a home brewer, this visual knowledge is gold!
    Thanks to Riverbend for being so open about the subject and explaining it to us all in simple terms.

    Super cool. I had no idea that they germinated it in the process then dried it back down. From MN I just picked up a bag from the Maltwerks facility in Detroit lakes yesterday and they gave me a tour of the malt house also. Awesome stuff!

    This was cool! I liked the examinations of the industry videos. Y'all did one recently on brewery pricing that was super illustrative, good stuff. This is older but the mix of fun and informative is great.

  • @eastindiaV

    I just take the water I'm gonna ferment with, put the grains in for about 24 hours until the tap root shows, then ferment the water, sans the grain.
    Dry grain may as well be sugar, and if you dry it you're getting rid of all the essential oils that give it flavor.
    There are beneficial microbes that make the flavor from the grain, by drying and killing the bacteria, you lose the flavor.
    Germaphopbes have no place in this industry, you just ferment the water from the germinated grains, with the BENEFICIAL MICROBES (REPEAT THAT IN YOUR HEAD 10X).
