The process of soaking, sprouting, and then drying barley (or other grain) to develop its enzyme content and render it suitable for mashing
The process of converting barley into malt The process is divided into three stages: 1-steeping the barley in water until a designated moisture content has been reached, 2-germinating the wet barley under controlled conditions, 3-kilning the germinated barley (green malt) to dry it and/or roast it
To convert a cereal grain into malt by causing it to sprout (by soaking in water) and then halting germination (by drying with hot air) in order to develop enzymes that can break down starches and proteins in the grain
Grain, usually barley, that has been allowed to sprout, used chiefly in brewing and distilling An alcoholic beverage, such as beer or ale, brewed from malt
The process of soaking grain until it sprouts then drying the germinating grain is referred to as "malting" with the end product known as "malt" This process is highly controlled, enabling the "maltster" to create a multitude of different malts each contributing to color, flavor, body, clarity, aroma, etc to the finished beer
(1) A name given to a grain - usually barley, sometimes rye - which has undergone a process of artificial growth This is achieved by steeping in cold water and then allowing to germinate Rapid drying arrests the growth The grain will then be rich is a sugar-type chemical compound on which yeast can feed to produce alcohol (2) The simple name given to malt whisky; a whisky made entirely from malted barley, be it single malt or vatted malt Mash
a cereal grain that is kiln-dried after having been germinated by soaking in water; used especially in brewing and distilling a lager of high alcohol content; by law it is considered too alcoholic to be sold as lager or beer convert into malt convert grain into malt turn into malt, become malt treat with malt or malt extract; "malt beer
Malt is a substance made from grain that has been soaked in water and then dried in a hot oven. Malt is used in the production of whisky, beer, and other alcoholic drinks. German beer has traditionally been made from just four ingredients -- hops, malt, yeast and water
A cereal, usually barley, wheat or triticale which is partially germinated under controlled heat and humidity then heat treated to form a powder Malt is also available in liquid form, malt extract Malt is rich in maltose, enzymes and flavour and therefore is an excellent ingredient for bread to aid fermentation, volume and flavour top of page
A powder made by germinating, drying, and grinding grains Enzymes are added during the process to partially convert the starch to sugar This creates the sweet-tasting malt used in brewing, distilling, yeast-making, and vinegar
A malt is a drink made from malted milk and sometimes other flavourings. Grain product used in beverages and foods. Malt provides a basis for fermentation and adds flavour and nutrients. It is made by steeping grain, usually barley, in water and allowing partial germination to occur. The flavour of beer primarily results from the malt from which it is made. The enzymes produced within the barley seed during germination break down starch into malt sugar, or maltose, which is then fermented by yeast to yield alcohol and carbon dioxide. Whiskey likewise is made with malt
IS A GRAIN (USUALLY BARLEY) WHICH HAS BEEN SPROUTED AND DRIED MALT EXTRACT IS SUGARS AND CARBOHYDRATES WHICH HAVE BEEN OBTAINED FROM MALT IN A "COOKING" PROCESS AND THE REMOVAL OF MOST OR ALL OF THE WATER MALT EXTRACT SYRUP OR DRIED MALT EXTRACT MASH IS THE PROCESS OF MIXING MALT WITH WATER AT VARIOUS TEMPERATURES TO HAVE ENZYME ACTIVITY CONVERT THE CARBOHYDRATE OF THE MALT INTO FERMENTABLE SUGARS
Primary ingredient in beer brewing that is produced by allowing barley, among other grains, to begin germination before it is kilned, or heated in an oven, to stop the process
A grain that is sprouted, dried, and ground into a powder with a mellow, slightly sweet flavor The powder may be used in making beer, vinegar, distilling liquor, and is an additive to many foods
Barley or other grain which has been soaked with water, allowed to sprout, and then dried Sprouting allows development of the enzymes that bring about starch conversion in the mash
Barley that has been processed for the purpose of converting the insoluble starch to the soluble substances and sugars Three factors determine the quality of malt: 1-its protein content must be as low as possible, 2-its starch content must be as high as possible, 3-its germinative power must be superior
