What is malt? This guy has the answers, explanations and plenty of science. Grains have a special and unique property. They can be easily transformed into #malt and #maltsugars. Liquid malt sugars can be fermented into ale or beer by yeast. Easy when you know how. 🏺🍻🧪

🏺How was #malt discovered? I should've presented this at the World Neolithic Congress last year but was not able to. So I submitted it to PAST, the newsletter of The Prehistoric Society. It was published last month in the November issue. It should be online soon!

My husband stumbled upon this video the other day. Asked if I'd seen it. Well, yes, but I'd forgotten about it! Thanks husband for a reminder. Thanks Tweedy Outdoors for a nice explanation of what they did with grain in the Neolithic.
