CONT

Barley is also used to produce barley malt. In this case the whole barley seed is steeped in water to allow the live germ to sprout ... The sprouted barley is next dried under mild heat so as not to inactivate its enzymes. The sprouted dried barley, now known as malt, is used in the brewing industry to help digest starchy material into sugars for rapid yeast fermentation. The malt also has a distinctive flavor which contributes to the flavor of brewed beverages such as beer. Malt further adds flavor to breakfast cereals and malted-milk concentrates. Malt syrups also find use in various bakery operations where amylase activity is desired.

CONT

When germination has progressed sufficiently, the grains are kiln-dried to stop the growth and to partially caramelize. The dried, sprouted barley resulting from this process is called malt.

CONT

Malt is grain that has undergone the correct steeping, germinating, and kilning procedures. It differs from the original grain as follows: it contains less moisture, therefore it is more suitable for storing and grinding; the endosperm has been modified and is mellow compared to the hard endosperm of the original kernel and the enzymatic values of malt are greatly increased compared to that of the original grain.

CONT

... malt, for ages, has supplied the brewer with the specific qualities and characteristics required to produce excellent beer.
