On ajoute fréquemment aux farines de ménage et aux farines commerciales de boulangerie de la farine d'orge maltée à raison de 14 à 56 g par 46 kg de farine, selon le type. La farine maltée est une source d'alpha-amylase, une enzyme qui produit du sucre fermentescible quand la farine est transformée en pâte. Certains grades de farine peuvent manquer de cette enzyme et l'on doit leur ajouter de la farine maltée pour que la pâte fermente bien durant la panification. 3, record 3, French, - farine%20d%27orge%20malt%C3%A9e
