Malt&Malting

Malt was used as a basis for fermentation and to add flavour and nutrients in beverages and foods. It is produced by cereal grain by allowing partial germination to modify the grain’s natural substances. Barley is chiefly used cereal grain to be converted to malt; rye, wheat, rice, and corn are used much less frequently.

Malting consists of three basic steps: soak the grain, let it sprout, and dry it down. Each step requires its own unique climate: cool water for steeping, cool, moist air for germination, and hot, dry air for kilning.

 

 

The history and evolution of malting technology

Before the industrial revolution, floor malting was the traditional way of producing malt. Malt producer use a wooden malt shovel or a special iron-wrought rake to turn the grain manually very often. For its a lot of physically demanding jobs and climatic limitation, not possible in Summer,  traditional floor malting was mostly replaced by industrial malting procedures today.

During the 1870’s, two malting engineers Galland and Saladin developed pneumatic malting technology and invented malting drum and Saladin box. It achieves to operate malt production year-round with good temperature control. These systems also show  such savings in manpower and increases in malt output than traditional floor malting. Saladin box has the design of rectangular container with vertical screws. The malting drum were developed by Galland with gentle turning.  The turning machines are simple, while it needs more transmission equipment and complex logistics , which makes it not suitable for very large scale production.

By the 1960s, circular germination and kilning vessels were developed and there is no practical limitation on size for these vessels, which made tower malting a practical configuration. It has high degree of automation and nice environment of technology control. It is  small in covered area,  simple in transmission, but the building cost is high. For very large scale production, tower malting system is the preferred configuration. Take the comprehensive cost into consideration , you can choose tall tower, half tower, or  flat tower.  

 

Yingtai Saladin malting system

Yingtai Saladin malting system is a complete malt production line consisting of raw material cleaning, steep, germination, drying and scale packing,etc. It has rectangle Saladin germination box and fans to provides uniformity air from one end so as to achieve humiture control. All loadings and unloadings can be achieved by computer controlled mechanized operation. Drying will be carried out in round Saladin kiln box. If the batch size is not very large, such as 5ton or 10ton per batch,  you can consider to use combination malting vessel, in where germination process and kilnning process can be completed in the same Saladin box.

The malting system has the features of advanced design, reasonable structure and high degree automation. The systems achieves the process control, technical parameter display and storage by PLC. The kilning temperature of Saladin malting system can up to 85℃(185℉) and it was widely used in base malt production for breweries and distilleries.
