Malts are the kernels of the grain, usually barley that are allowed to sprout and grow for a few days and then heated to stop the germination. Kilned malts are prepared by heating with the intention of drying them out rather than heating with the water. The moisture content of the grains of the kilned malt is brought to 3% to 5%. Some of the kilned malts are prepared at low temperature while some are prepared at high temperature, ranging between 35°C to 100°C.
This wide range of temperature is the required to get the balance between diastatic power and flavor of the kilned malt. The range of flavors can be achieved such as toasty, bready or simply malty. The flavor becomes more pronounced with the increase in the temperature at which kilned malt is prepared. Kilned malts are not used for their enzyme content but for the characteristics that impart special color and flavor in end product.
Kilned malt produces a wide range of colors and flavors in the alcoholic beverage. A few of the kilned malt variety is also produced by introducing air circulation or the amount of air that is allowed to move around the grains while they dry. Sometimes the grain is given a lot of air circulation as its kilned, drying it out more quickly, while sometimes it's given less air circulation and allowed to dry out much more slowly.
This introduction of air circulation again brings changes in the flavor and color of the kilned malt. The wide range of colors, flavors offered by kilned malt is the main reason for the increased demand for the kilned malt. Customers are keen on trying new, innovative drinks with a twist element which encourages brewers to attempt brewing with different kilned malt styles.
Storing kilned malt is an important aspect as the malt grains can spoil easily and lose their aroma and flavor with little exposure to moisture. Kilned malt should be stored in a cool, dry and odorless place. Under these conditions, the shelf-life of malt is minimum one year.
Cargill Inc, Briess Malt & Ingredients Co., Great Western Malting, Rahr Malting Co., Gladfield Malting Company, Malting Company Ireland, Weyermann, Thomas Fawcett, Canada Malting, Muntons Malted Ingredients Inc., and Bairds Malt, are among the key players in the global kilned malt market.
Melano malt: A new special kilned malt heightened in melanoidins is supplied by certain malt suppliers. Melano malt is produced by a special germination process followed by a slow drying that produces melanoidins during the kilning process giving richness to the beer color, improves flavor stability and a red color in beer.
During the storage of barley, the use of nitrogen or other gases has been proposed as a means of stabilizer to reduce the metabolic activity of microorganisms in order to impart long shelf-life. The possibility of introducing fragments of genetic material, which contain useful genes for improved disease resistance, has been extensively investigated.
Increasing number of breweries and increasing interest in brewing different styles of beer is likely to result in the increase in demand for kilned malt. Also, craft beers are becoming the popular type of beer among youth as well as elderly which might result in increased demand for kilned malt.
Increased support and funding from governments for researching and developing new plant varieties for improved productivity, pest resistance, drought tolerant, and enzymatic activities might lead to crop innovation that will have a great relevance for maltsters.
In the technological view, one problem is how to obtain a uniform flow/temperature through the grain bed in the kiln. The bigger the kiln unit, the more difficult it is to get a uniform temperature in the end uniformly kilned grains.
