How to store malt
Malt retains its enzymatic power for several years when stored correctly. The Swaen ensures a long shelf life through a specialised process. As a result, brewers can always rely on the consistent quality of our products. This is your guide on how to store malt.
Naked oats
Malted naked oats are becoming a popular adjunct grain for craft brewers seeking to enhance flavour and mouthfeel in their beers. Additionally, their lack of a hull boosts enzyme efficiency, releasing more fermentable starches. They impart a subtle, nutty flavour.
Caramel malts
Caramel malts have come a long way, but their roots go back to traditional kilning techniques. Brewers once covered kilns with tarpaulins to trap moisture while heating green malt to 60–75°C. After two hours, the starch inside fully converted to sugars.
