About Malt

Malt is a germinated cereal grain, typically barley, that is dried in a process called malting. This versatile ingredient is rich in nutrients like B vitamins, essential amino acids, and trace minerals such as magnesium and phosphorus. Malt is a key component in brewing beer, distilling whiskey, and producing malted products like milkshakes, cereals, and baked goods. Originating from ancient brewing traditions, malt is prevalent in European and global cuisines. While its natural sugars provide an energy boost, malt can be high in calories and carbohydrates, which may not suit low-sugar or low-carb diets. However, it offers a natural source of sweetness and can contribute to the production of probiotics, supporting gut health when used in fermentation. Consumed in moderation, malt can be a flavorful addition to a balanced diet.
