Episode 112: Malt & Malt Extracts: Practical Insights for You and Your Brewhouse [with the Muntons Malt team]

Recently, we’ve been paying more attention to brewing practises, especially in the content of these shows.  In addition to Ali Capper from the British Hop Association, talking about the flight of farmers ,and Bill McFarland from Omega Yeast, who shared some of his fermentation practises with a focus on the Kveik strain, this week I took the opportunity to talk to the team from Munton’s Malt to talk about malting and using malt extracts. We look the journey of malt from grain to glass, how malt is selected or rejected from the harvest; we investigate the importance and difference between technical datasheets and certificates of analysis; and we chat at length about malt extracts and probe the myth about the ‘malt extract tang’ that many homebrewers in particular endlessly debate on forums.   Find out more from Hop Forward and our partners… Follow is on Social Media: Facebook / Instagram / Twitter / LinkedIn Visit hopforward.beer for more insights and a range of branding, marketing and business development services to help you and your beer business get ahead.
