No joke: I am not kidding you when I say *last week* I got a milkshake, thought aloud “I really wish they had malt, it would’ve been even better”. My husband ask “what is malt anyways?”. I said “I actually have no idea, let me google it.” I found the answer (although it wasn’t particularly satisfying) and told him what I found out and topped it off with “I wish Adam had a video on it”. And slightly more than a week later, here we are. Truly amazing.

This happened to me a couple of days ago. I’m having trouble buying small amounts of malt to make panettone (apparently, they don’t sell less than 1kg bags of it in Brazil, which is way too much, and the Italian recipes I could find don’t specify if it should be diastatic or non-diastatic) and I was wondering if I could buy small amounts from local breweries and grind it myself, so I kept reading about the different types and whether it could work and I thought “man, this would make a great follow up video to Adam’s wheat series”. And there it is! So it’s basically what happens if the wheat is still alive when you give it a long autolyse rest lol

In Central Asia we keep the ancient tradition of celebrating Navruz, kinda like new year but in 21st of March. The main dish is what we call Sumalyak. It is ground malt boiled in a very big open fire pot. It takes the whole neighborhood to prepare Sumalyak and about 10-14 hours until its completion, and you have to stir it constantly which is why it can’t be done just by a single person. I really like this tradition, I think it makes people have higher sense of belonging to their community and is overall a pretty fun thing to do with people in your neighborhood

I went through a "malt every grain in sight" phase some years ago. Also made bread for many years. One day I added a tablespoon of ground up wheat malt to the bread dough just to see what would happen. Of course it absolutely RUINED the dough. The amylase took no time to break down all the starch in the dough. Baking what remained resulted in a bread brick - just a lump of baked gluten that was hard enough to break your teeth. Today I've learned to roast the malt first to eliminate its diastatic properties. :)

Small disclaimer: you can't use *any* whole grain cereal for it. In fact, you can't use most. It has to be a cereal that produces amylase when it germinates, as Dr. Duncan mentions. For example, barley and wheat. Rice and corn don't do that. I don't know about other grains like oats, but it seems glutenous cereals can typically be malted.
@EebstertheGreat5 ай бұрын
You can absolutely malt any cereal. All seeds produce amylase when germinating, just in different amounts. Some grains like corn have a diastatic power too low to easily ferment on their own (so you won't brew a beer purely out of corn with no adjuncts), but malted corn still exists and is still added to beers and used to make whiskey and so on. And at least according to the University of Arkansas, it is possible to malt some types of rice with a high enough diastatic power to brew beer (though most other sources list its power as 0 by convention).

There are several types of barley, and some are suited better for malting, while others are better suited for barley flours: malt barleys and mill barleys (there are also varieties optimal for livestock feed etc.). Two-row barley has a smaller protein content and is generally better suited for malting, while six-row barley is better suited for baking and livestock feed.

@@susan3200 I think it mostly depends on the product you buy; like I said, flours are typically made of six-row barley, malts from two-row etc. But of course if buying directly from a farmer, one can ask. As far as I can tell, there's no easy way to know from a ready-made product that what kind of barley it was made of. It would even be hard to determine from the whole grains, though they should - I think - be a bit differently shaped depending on whether they came from a two-row or a six-row barley (but I'm not sure, and I've not heard anyone doing so).

@@susan3200 2 Row barley is the most common type grown in the spring in the northern hemisphere.The individual grains are larger than those from 6 row. 6 row barley is usually grown as a specialist grain and is quite often added to a beer mash as an adjunct (non fermentable addition) for adding flavour and/or colour.

There's another type of malt, almost completely unknown in US, but very important in many parts of Europe - FERMENTED MALT. The difference is that fermented malt is left to ferment after sprouting. This stops germination, just like with any malt and starts thermophilic lactic fermentation (like one would do with a high quality yogurt). Once it is fermented it gets roasted slightly and dried to stop run away fermentation. It is then milled and used as a flavouring agent, just like non-diastatic malt. The difference in flavour between malts you described in the video and fermented malt is like between a bread made with flour, water and baking powder (basically tasteless quick bread) and properly fermented sourdough (full of flavour). Fermented malt is important ingredient in Borodinsky bread, for example, and it is impossible to replicate this iconic flavour in any other way. It is also used in many European malt drinks and is vital ingredient for dark kvases.

Very well done video. In the beer world, wort is pronounced 'wert.' A brewer will use mash-in temperature to influence the different alpha and beta amylase production to allow different sugar profiles for their wort, depending on desired beer characteristics. There is a style of beer out of South America, Chicha, that is made with corn. Because corn has low diastatic power, the alpha and beta amylase in our saliva is used to convert the starches into sugars. People set around chewing corn and spitting into a communal bucked.

But even though the ambient temperature in my smoker got close to 200ºF, when I used my hands to stir the grains so they wouldn't scorch or dry out, it only felt comfortably warm. And my gravity readings were in keeping with what my brewing software called for. It can be a touchy thing, dealing with the right temperatures.

Arguably the malted grain will not store as long while maintaining it's nutrition because the wrapper of the surface of the grain, which contains antioxidants has been broken letting oxygen into the grain. The malting action which relseases nutrients from phyctic acid is very useful

Oh my god in the UK we have a version of Whoppers called Maltesers! They're really nice actually. That would have been a much more satisfying ending, I thought that's what he was going to say 😂

Maltesers >>> Whoppers

I'd imagine the main difference would be in the chocolate coating, there's quite a difference between the US and European variety!

Malteasers are much better than Whoppers. Once I tasted Malteasers I never ate whoppers again.

In Iran we made two sweets from malted wheat sohan and samano samano is malted wheat juice (crashed and grinded) slow cooked in big pots into something near the puddings . Its special for nowruz . And sohan is mixture of that with oil and wheat flower with crushed nuts.

The utility of amylase in accelerating fermentation brings to mind various ancient brewing techniques in which a grain is chewed in the mouth and then spitted into a vessel to ferment. Human saliva, which has amylase, is in this way used to make Japanese kuchikamizake (with chewed rice) and Andean chicha (made from chewed corn). There are many other examples. I had not appreciated until seeing your excellent video what saliva does in those various traditional brews.

I taught an intro to brewing class for several years. You provided a lot of essential information in a concise way. Great job, Adam. Looking forward to your next video on the topic. I'm not even mad about the Whopper slander.
