About Barley and wheat malt

Barley and wheat malt is a malted-grain ingredient made from both barley and wheat. The grains are germinated and dried before use; the product may be supplied as whole or crushed malt, or further processed for brewing and food production. The exact proportion and processing are not specified by this name.

Its appearance depends on the form, ranging from intact or crushed kernels to a milled product. Malted grains tend to have a gently sweet, toasted cereal flavour and are used where malt character or fermentable material is wanted.
