Yeah, I'm a little confused here. The title is about malting barley, but the video is about drying grain, nicely done, but it's not a malting process when the grain is taken straight off the field and put onto a drying platform.
Right you are! But sprouting the grains can be done easily a bunch of different ways ...kilning on my remote ranch is a problem for me. I was thinking that the rig in the video could produce all but the darkest malts.
@@yanquimike I wonder about the kilning process. What purpose does it serve except to cook the malt in order to produce different tastes in the beer? For a basic beer I'd think kilning would be redundant. If your primary goal is to get sweet wort, why not simply put the freshly malted grain right into the pot, add water, and cook into wort?
The many adjustments made by farming community cities during the war is very interesting. They invented a thousand ways to deal with shortages and the loss of the young men in the work force. They turned gasoline fueled trucks and cars into coal powered vehicles. They were slow but they worked and used no precious gasoline. People relearned old ways of doing things and invented new ways. The both the inventiveness and the coherent unity of the farm people of Britain is a very interesting and important story. I hope some of that barley ended up in beer.

hello there - I just found this video and thought the same thing.

Great. Barley is the greatest grains of all.
That drying grain. You need to sprout before drying if you want malt
This would be a great way to dry spent barley! :) ~Honey
The Malting process must be in a different part of the series, not this one. All is shown is harvesting, and drying the grain for long term storage.
