  Kilning
Green malt is transferred to kilns for warm air drying to arrest the germination process and reduce the moisture content of the grain to 3-4%.The kilning process takes around 18 - 24 hours. At this stage the malt takes on its distinctive flavour and colour.

 

After kilning, the rootlets (or culms) are removed from the grains and pelletised into a co-product.

The resultant product - Malted Barley.
