IMPORTANCE OF COLOUR IN BAKING & BREWING

 Colours are a very important part of day to day life as it enriches our everyday life. Colours attract attention, symbolize emotions and generate expectations. Even in cooking colours have their own space. From this point of view, a sight of an excellent meal also includes shades of colour that influence our mood and our expectations. It not only lifts our mood and attracts our attention, but also contributes to the anticipation of the taste and texture of our food. The same also helps with the buying behaviour of the consumers. This is why it is said that colours play a unique role in the food and beverage industry. And among all the colours, the naturally produced colour - brown - is one of the most important colours in the food industry. Brown colour is quite common when it comes to baking bread or roasting onions, but also when grilling steaks. People are getting more and more health conscious and are really concerned about what they are consuming. So rather than using artificial colours in recipes, the market is searching for the natural flavours. 

Mahalaxmimaltextract provides the best quality natural malt extract that is the best for your health. Malt is a grain product that is used in beverages and foods as a basis for fermentation to add flavour, taste and nutrients. Malt is prepared from various types of cereal grain, usually barley malt, by allowing partial germination to modify the grain’s natural food substances. Malt extract has many advantages compared to the processes commonly used in various food productions. Because of its high colour stability, malt extract can be used for bakery, used as  biscuit and confectionery grade malt extract, pharma grade malt extract and beverage applications such as beer as well as for breakfast cereals. Malt extract is an ideal ingredient, especially combined with cereals and baked goods such as wafers, muffins, bread or burger buns, which not only have a positive effect on the colouring at higher dosages but also on taste which suits the customer’s preferences. We all know about the importance of malt extract in the food and beverage industry but we might not know about its usage in pet food as a substitute for the unpopular brown iron oxide, as it does not have an abrasive or corrosive effect on the equipment. Malt extract, whether used as liquid or dry, has a long shelf life if stored properly.

Bakery Grade Malt Extract 

As malt extract is considered as a heart of ingredients, it has a special place in brewing and bakery products. Just adding a sweetener is not enough but if  you are getting it with a whole bunch of antioxidants, essential amino acids, vitamins and minerals- then it's a totally different story.

The main uses of malt in the bakery are to:

Add nutritive value, as it is rich in vitamins and essential amino acids

Lengthen shelf life through its ability to attract moisture

Help fermentation by strengthening the gluten and feeding the yeast

Make products more appealing through browning of the crust

Add unique flavour to products when used in sufficient quantity

 

Malted Milk Food Grade Malt Extract

Malted Milk Food includes various Health Drinks that are made using powdered gruel or DME. This gruel is processed basically with the mixture of malted barley, wheat flour, and whole milk. The evaporation method is used to form a powder food which is used in making healthy drinks. 

 Non-alcoholic Malt Beverages

When people look for an alternative of Alcoholic beverages (because they are not good for health) then the first thing that comes to their mind are the non  alcoholic malt beverages which are a healthier alternative. Non-alcoholic malt beverages are the non-alcoholic drinks that have the nutritional content of  that of barley and are good enough to satisfy your thirst for alcoholic beverages.

LME VS. DME - WHICH ONE TO USE?

 There is always a debate on - dry vs. liquid yeast, single vs. two-stage fermentation, extract vs. all-grain brewing - which one is better, which one should be preferred. There are supporters on both of the sides. But the answer to this lies majorly in the hands of the user-- their equipment, their skill level, their time availability, and a number of other factors is what causes major difference. The same goes for dried malt extract vs liquid malt extract. Both have their own place in baking, brewing etc. 

But if we talk about the basic difference between the two then it is the amount of water in each. Also a pound of liquid extract and a pound of dry extract differ in sugar content as well. Therefore, liquid and dry extract are not interchangeable in a recipe. Both dry and liquid malt extract have their own pros and cons.

Dried Malt Extract

When the final product is a dried powder then it means the malt extract suppliers had made it undergo a complete evaporation process by way of spray drying which removes all the water making it a dry or powder product.

Dried Malt Extract (DME) – Pros

Dried malt extract offers more fermentable extract by weight which means you require less of it to achieve the desired goal.

The shelf life of DME is longer even with fewer storage.

Dried Malt Extract (DME) – Cons

DME sometimes becomes quite hard to use such as If there’s any steam coming off your kettle, it may make the DME sticky even when it is in the bag. 

Liquid Malt Extract

On the other hand we have LME in which the water content is usually around 20%, with the other remaining 80% composed of sugar and unfermentable solids.

Liquid Malt Extract – Pros

Liquid malt extract has a convenience factor i.e., It is easy to store, pack and transport

LME comparatively offers a slightly wider range of flavors such as Munich Malt Extract, caramel malt extract etc.

Liquid Malt Extract– Cons

LME can also sometimes be considered quite hard to use as it tends to stick to the inside of the container. One has to Soak the canister in hot water first to help it pour out more easily.

Many brewers report that LME makes darker beers. If brewing a light-colored extract ale or lager, consider using light DME.

Now as you can see both have their own pros and cons and have a significant place in different types of recipes. They can also be used interchangeably and you can even use both in a single recipe.

To try DME and LME, you can always contact the best provider of Liquid MAlt Extract and  Malt extract powder in india - Mahalaxmimaltextract

INGREDIENTS OF MALT EXTRACT

 Malt extract

Mahalaxmi malt extract’s malt extract is basically available in two forms, i.e., LME and DME. LME is Liquid malt extract which is a thick sugary syrup,widely used in various recipes such as preparation of cake, biscuits etc. On the other side we have DME, dry malt extract which is in the form of dry powder and is  comparatively long lasting than liquid malt extract.

The extraction of malt extract from cereal grains is not new but is a very old process.

Malt extract is used as biscuit and confectionery malt extract, pharma malt extract, flakes grade malt extract etc.

Now you all must be wondering about the ingredient of malt extract…. So let’s learn about it together.

Ingredients of Malt Extract

The first and foremost step is that cereals are soaked in water and left for around five days to allow the grain to germinate and transform starch into the sugar that nourishes the new plant. These germinated seeds, referred to as  "green malt", are later dried and their particular colour and aroma develop. This is the point where that dried malt is turned into a powder and mixed with hot water. Then finally the coloured and highly fragrant liquid is carefully filtered and dried to create the malt extract powder we use in our products.

 This product is used in a high number of baked goods, Bagels, beverages, confectioneries & biscuits, snacks and many more because of its pleasant flavour, remarkable aroma and the extraordinary colour which is created while it is getting cooked. Aroma is not the only thing that we get from malt extract. Using Malt Extract helps in providing sweetness, flavour, colour, natural humectants in various products/recipes.

WAY TO GO! FROM BARLEY TO MALT EXTRACT

 So you all consume barley and malt (such as biscuit malt) on a regular basis, right? But do you know the difference between the two. The first one is Barley which basically refers to the seed of the barley plant. When this seed is moistened in a warm environment then the seed begins to grow and produces a bunch of helpful enzymes that can convert the starches in the seed to sugars. After that the grain is allowed to grow for a certain amount of time and then is dried in air which kills the seed. (For additional flavour, it can also be roasted). The dried barley seed with a small sprout is named 'malt' and this process is known as 'malting.'

The infusion of barley malt at mild temperature results in malt extract. During this process, the starch is converted to maltose and after filtration what we get is a product of honey consistency which is known as malt extract syrup. It is also available in powder form. This barley malt extract is a high quality malt extract because it’s a pure extract of barley malt.

With barley malt extract, Both Diastatic and non-diastatic malt extract can be produced :

Diastatic:

“Diastatic” is the name of the enzymes that are created in some grains as they sprout, and these enzymes help in converting starch to sugar to feed the yeast.

 Non-diastatic

Non-diastatic malt powder grains involve processing the malted grains with heat above 55°C, which destroys the enzymes. It does not help break down the starch and will not accelerate the rising of the dough and the yeast.Non-diastatic malt powder can be used to give a better, more concentrated flavor. Since it involves some heat and roasting, you don't  need to be observant about preserving the enzymes, so it can develop new malt flavors that are more pronounced in this powder. That flavor will enhance the final dough too. 

Non-diastatic is dedicated to varied industries such as:

Biscuit Confectionery Grade Malt Extract is a kind  of roasted malt, however, it is cooked to a light degree at around 25-30° Lovibond. Simmering temp is around 350°F, which puts it somewhere close to high-kilned malts like Munich malt, and broiled malt like pale chocolate, which may give you some thought of its qualities and use.The high temperature which is applied to the malt at low moisture content, also known as dry roasting, develops the unique toasted, warm bread, biscuit, and especially nutty flavors and aromas characteristic of this malt type and the beers in which it is used. 

Pharma grade malt extract is the type of malt extract that is made by exhibiting the liquid malt expels onto a progressively moving band experiencing the vacuum. The result is the honeycomb of material which is prepared into a coarse powder before squeezing. This malt powder is sugary, light yellow in shading and extremely hygroscopic in nature.

GROWTH AND POPULARITY OF BISCUIT MALT

Biscuit Malt is a special type of malt that is used to make the biscuit even tastier and to produce a biscuity flavour and essence in other recipes and is produced using a drum roaster. The process of making biscuit malt is the same as any other type of malt i.e.the first step to come is germination, kiln-dried barley is then roasted at high temperature but relatively  for a short roasting time. When one wants to have a  unique toasted, warm bread, biscuit, and especially nutty flavors and aromas characteristic in their recipe, they usually go for biscuit malt. This type of biscuit malt is produced by applying high temperature to the malt at low moisture content and is also known as dry roasting. Biscuit malt is quite popular in beer making as this fully toasted, lightly roasted malt is used to give the beer a bread and biscuits flavor. These special characteristics of biscuit malt also make it popular for usage at low percentages i.e. even if it is used in a low proportion, it can still add subtle flavors and aromas to beer styles.

 The concept of Biscuit malt is not very old. In Fact it earned quite a good position in the making of beer and many other recipes in a comparatively short span of time. This relatively new type of malt was made possible probably because of the invention of the first drum roaster in the early 1800s during Britain’s Industrial Revolution. The nutty flavors of biscuit malts make them popular when brewing brown ales, where they can make up as much as 10%–15% of the total grist bill. According to the sales parameters, biscuit malt’s usage is expected to grow multiple times.

 Mahalaxmimaltextract is one of the most renowned suppliers of biscuit malt. Well, biscuit malt is not the only malt that Mahalaxmimaltextract provides, We are also the best supplier of  Amber Malt, Aromatic Malt, Belgian Pils, Biscuit Malt, Black Barley, Black Malt, Crystal or Caramel Malts, Cara Munich, Chocolate Malt, Flaked barley, Flaked oats, Flaked wheat, Honey malt, Pale ale malt, Victory malt, wheat malt etc.

MALTED BARLEY FLOUR - A HEALTHY INTAKE OR NOT?

 Malted barley is the barley that has been allowed to germinate by soaking the grain in water which prepares the starches to be converted into fermentable sugar. Malted barley flour is made from barley that is malted, steam-dried, hulled, ground and then sifted. Usually, it is made from the species of barley that has six rows of seed to it per head.

There are basically two types of malted barley flour in which one is known as diastatic and the other one is known as non-diastatic.

Diastatic: This is the “by default '' type that is normally meant when malted barley flour is mentioned. It has the active enzymes in it and is the one that is mostly used for baking. It provides sweet essence and nutty texture to the recipe but doesn’t actually have any real flavour to talk about as it is “flavour-neutral” . It also doesn’t impact the colour much but is definitely the best in giving a moister crumb.

Diastatic Malt Flours also contain naturally occurring active enzymes that function as natural dough conditioners in yeast fermented dough. These active enzymes are used for promoting a strong rise, adding a mild natural malt flavor and enhancing appealing crust browning. Diastatic Malt flour has a wide range of usage including Baked Goods, Bagels, Crackers, Pizza Crust, Pretzels.

Not only the amateurs but also the professional bakers find it useful for providing uniform and improved fermentation and improving machinability and extensibility of their baked products. The enzymatic digestion activity of starch increases fermentation, decreases proofing time,relaxes the dough, increases volume, enhances browning and softens the crumb. Malted barley is also helpful in extending the product shelf life.

Non-diastatic: Unlike the diastatic, non-diastatic ones have no active enzymes in it and are generally used to provide flavour in a variety of applications and in baked goods, to give a glossy surface and a soft, fine crumb. This is more likely to be referred to as “Malt Powder.”

The use of malted barley flour doesn’t end at just providing sweet essence, colour, and nutty flavour to the recipe but it is equally helpful in providing nutrition to your body. Also when compared with brown rice barley products or barley malt has twice the calcium and fibre and about 30 per cent fewer calories. As malt contains fiber, potassium, folate, and vitamin B6, which together provides many nutritional benefits such as:

Lower cholesterol and decrease in risk of cardiac disease. 

Athletic Recovery

Sweetener with Substance

Boosts Happiness

Supports Digestive Health

Antioxidants Galore

Promotes Heart Health

TIME TO BAKE MALTED MILK BISCUITS

 Mahalaxmimaltextract provides the various types of malt extract including Biscuit and confectionery malt extract. I have heard many people talking about the biscuit and confectionery malt extract and in the period of lockdown many of them have tried making recipes with it. Were you one of them? If not, Let’s try it out together. But before trying, did you know that you can use this extract only in baked products but also in beer and do you want to know how we prepare this malt extract?

At first, the steeping process takes place in which specialty grain is soaked and crushed   in hot water to extract color and some flavor compounds from the grain.  The steeped grains are then moved to a room where temperature and humidity are carefully maintained to ensure that the grain germinates evenly.  The enzymes involved in this steep are responsible for the degradation of starch in the extraction process.

The germination process is halted by kilning when the optimum degree of enzyme production and starch modification has been attained. All these steps end up at a product called wort. The wort is then concentrated by evaporation under vacuum until the desired moisture content is reached. Colour and flavour, sweet essence etc. can be controlled by altering residence time at this stage. Atlast the liquid malt extract is filtered, cooled and packaged in different sizes. A dry malt extract powder is also produced by processing the wort in a spray-drying tower.

OK, done with the process. Now it's time to bake something.

 Gather these Ingredients For the Malted Milk Biscuits

200 g/ ⅞ cup Butter 

3 tbsp Mahalaxmi’s Malted Milk Powder

CHOOSE YOUR OWN EXTRACT WITH MAHALAXMIMALTEXTRACT

 As a healthy cereal alternative to sugar or starch in bakery and confectionery items, Malted Barley is something that is usually taken into consideration. But that is not the only thing barley malt is good at. Malt is best associated with Beer or Malt Blended Whiskies. Malted barley is the basic source of sugars/maltose which are fermented into beer. It can be said that the most basic ingredient that would be able to become a healthy and equally tasty substitute for the health aspect of any processed food is called Malt.

Malt is known as "the soul of beer" and is one of four essential ingredients used in producing craft beer. It is the malt that provides color, sweet essence, aroma, flavor, and body to any product including beer.

There are a number of grains that can be used in making beer such as barley, rye, wheat etc. But among all barley is the most commonly used and preferred. Barley grain cannot get fermented into alcohol by its, instead it is first converted to malted barley through a process called malting. Malting process involves three basic steps. The first one is steeping which involves the soaking of barley to awaken the dormant grain. Next, is the step of germination that involves the germination and sprouting of the grain. Finally, the step of heating or kilning the barley comes to produce its final color and flavor. Talking from the brewer's point of view, there are two kinds of malted grain, one that needs to be mashed and the other one that doesn't. Mashing is the process of soaking in hot water which makes a porridge-like mixture that provides the right conditions for the enzymes to convert the grain starches into fermentable sugars. For example- the basic light colored malts such as pale ale malt  and malted wheat 

need to be mashed to convert the starches into fermentable sugars.

Malts, again, can also be divided as to how they’re used, such as “base malts” and “specialty malts.” For instance, Crystal malts are commonly used as a specialty malt to impart caramel-like sweetness. Black malts, on the other hand, are super-kilned barley malts that can be used to darken color or taste. Then there is Pilsner malt that is a super pale malt used in the base of a lager, with a good amount of flavor and some sweetness despite its pale color. The list, because beer is a delicious rainbow, goes on.

There are also two forms in which malt extract is available for producing beer, i.e. dry malt extract and liquid malt extract. As per your need and recipe you can choose the type of grain, the type of malt or the form of malt extract to use. Mahalaxmimaltextract provides you with ‘n’ number of options to choose from that fits your brewing requirement and also definitely your bill.

HAPPY AND HEALTHY BAKING WITH BISCUIT MALT

 Time for biscuit malt. You must have met all types of people, those who love Mahalaxmi malt extract’s biscuit malt, those who hate it and those who are indifferent about it. But this hatred can be turned into love if you try Mahalaxmimaltextract’s biscuit malt.

Biscuit Malt is a highly flavored specialty malt that is produced using a drum roaster. Biscuit malt is produced by germinating the barley and then the kiln-dried barley is roasted at high temperature but for a relatively short roasting time. Then the step of dry roasting takes place to develop the unique toasted, warm bread, biscuit, and especially nutty flavors and aromas characteristic of this malt type and the beers in which it is used. 

Biscuit malt is rightly  named for the biscuity flavor it gives and is also sometimes known for its "saltine cracker" flavor which you can say is more accurate than "biscuity". With moderation, malt extract does add a unique component to any recipe. You can even go overboard with biscuit malt because it's not as strongly flavored as some specialty malts. 

The toasted, nutty flavors of biscuit malt extract also make it popular for usage in not only bakery products but also in various beers at a low percentages as they add subtle flavors and aromas to beer styles such as pale ales, amber and red ales and lagers. In darker beer styles such as stouts and porters, low percentages of malt extract liquids can help develop greater complexity and increase malt aroma.

Biscuit confectionery grade malt extract lends the beer and baked bread and biscuits an intense and sweet malty aroma. It somehow combines distinct roasted aromas and a light color which gives a golden colour to the beer that suits perfectly for many beer styles, giving a little special touch to them. These appetizing biscuits come enriched with vitamins and nutrients of milk, and just the right amount of malted milk and are Easy to make, tasty, healthy and visually appealing which go along with every occasion.

If you are yet to taste Biscuit Malt,  I strongly recommend that you do, it tastes like roasted hazelnut and very dry to me, which is good right?!

Barley Malt Powder and Liquid Malt Extracts are used for adding flavouring and sweetness and enhancing natural aromas in food products. In bakery applications, such as these savoury cheese biscuits, they enhance the texture, adding crisp. Our Malt Extracts are 100% natural. – Get ready to fall in love again with biscuit malt with Mahalxmimaltextract!

BRING IT ON FLAKES at mahalaxmimaltextract.com

 You all must have done brewing using various extracts. But have you ever tried it with flaked barley which will improve your process of brewing and will give it a bit more body as well. 

When it comes to the mashing process, flakes can’t just get mashed since they have no enzymes. To complete the mashing process you will also be in need of base malt.

The problem here is that flaked barley is unmalted.  Unmalted barley has no enzymes to convert its own starches which is why flakes are combined with malt that gives barley the enzymes it needs to convert its own starches to sugars during the mash process. If the starches are not converted properly, it can be very hazy and sometimes astringent  which sometimes increases risk of infection, even in the bottle, since it's still fermentable to wild yeasts.

Mashing barley flakes with malt might sound hard as it takes a lot of time and effort to complete this step. Sometimes people get tired in this step only which makes them lose interest in further steps of brewing. As a solution for this problem Mahalamimaltextract provides Flakes Grade Malt Extract which is not only time savvy but also cost effective and nutritious.

BENEFITS OF MALT EXTRACT IN BREWING

 Liquid Malt Extract is a concentrated, unfermented brewery wort, a viscous syrup which is largely  used in brewing, especially homebrewing. Use of Liquid Malt extract in brewing is done for a reason. It provides many benefits in the brewing process.

BENEFITS OF USING MALT EXTRACT IN BREWING

1.Malt Extract Saves Time

One of the most important advantages of using malt extract is that it is Time savvy as with its use the entire all-grain mashing process can be skipped, which reduces the length of a brew day substantially.

Going with a standard homebrew all-grain process involves - heating water, soaking grains for around one hour, lautering (collecting the mash liquid) and sparging (rinsing the grains with more water to get all the sugar) - which takes around two to three hours, and even longer if you conduct a fly sparge. That means if calculating from the starting point of heating the water to until the yeast is added to the wort, it is a six hours or more work. If we also add the cleaning time then it is a full day's work. 

But if this full day's work can be done in just two to three hours, won’t it be amazing? Use of malt extract makes it a viable solution for folks who want to brew after a work day or sneak in a quick batch before the weekend festivities kick off.

2. Malt Extract Saves Space

Using Malt extract helps you skip the all-grain mashing process and the amount of equipment needed for brew day is greatly reduced. The entire process can be done in one pot. Malt Extract beer recipes typically yield five gallons of beer, and can be made using only two to three gallons of liquid in the boil, with the remaining volume made up with water that’s added to the fermenter. 

3. Extract = Efficiency

One of the most challenging aspects of all-grain brewing is hitting a target gravity which measures the amount of sugars extracted during the mash and will ultimately affect the alcohol content and overall profile of the finished beer. The amount of sugar extracted during the process is determined by the “efficiency,” and it’s not unusual for the average homebrewer to hit the target gravity.

Liquid and dry malt extracts when added to a specific amount of water, provides a predictable amount of fermentable sugars. Measured gravity comes in too low - add a little bit of malt extract until you reach your target. Measured gravity comes in too high - add a bit of water.

4. Encourages New Homebrewers

The above mentioned benefits make extract brewing one of the best ways to introduce people to how to easily brew beer at home. Malt extract brewing not only makes homebrewing easier to grasp and understand, but also it’s one of the cheapest and newbie-friendly ways to encourage people to take up the hobby.

CONVERSION OF LIQUID AND DRY MALT EXTRACT

 Barley Malt extract is a dietary supplement derived from barley grains and water and  packed with sugars plus some nutrients. After being popular among undernourished children as a dietary and nutritional supplement, it became an important ingredient in homebrewing.

Malt Extract, as an ingredient, is present and is used in basically two forms: Liquid malt extract and dry malt extract.

Liquid malt extract is the form of malt extract that is yellowish brown in color and is free from any adulterants, odour, foreign flavor and impurities.

LME is a natural food ingredient which is responsible for enhancing aroma, color and sweetness in any recipe. It improves and enhances the flavor, palatability, appearance and food value of the final product.

DME is the wort from which almost all the moisture has been removed. If the final product is a dried powder, the malt extract has undergone a complete evaporation process by way of “spray drying”, thus removing virtually all of the water.

The biggest upside to the malt extract powder in India is that, when you add the dry malt extract it ends up floating to the top so the chances of burning are very less. Other than this it stays fresh for a longer period than the liquid malt extract. Also, it is easy to store, easy to transfer into separate containers and easy to clean up any spills too.

People usually wonder, if it matters to use malt liquid extract or dry malt extract?

In general terms, no. Both are the same but you can get different colours of DME and LME ranging from pale to medium to dark for example but pale malt extract is the same whether it be dry or liquid. 

But the primary difference between the two is the amount of water in each. As the two types of malt are different in water content, a pound of liquid extract and a pound of dry extract differ in sugar content as well. Therefore, LME and DME are not casually  interchangeable in a recipe. However, the conversion between the two is quite simple.

Conversion between liquid malt extract (LME) to dry malt extract (DME)?

The ratio for use between the dry and syrup forms of malt extract can be approximated as follows: Liquid malt extracts are roughly 20% water so 1kg of liquid is the same as 800g of dry malt extract. If you want to convert a recipe that lists LME then multiply the amount by 0.8 to achieve the amount of DME required. If your recipe list is dry then divide the amount by 0.8 to reach the amount of liquid extract needed. To explain it better, here is an example:

3kg of LME = 3 x 0.8 = 2.4kg of DME

3kg of DME = 3 / 0.8 = 3.75kg of LME

Process of Manufacturing of Malted Milk Food

 Malted milk food is a product made by combining whole milk with the liquid which is separated from a mash of ground barley & wheat flour in such a way as to secure full enzymatic action of the barley malt extract. This type of food also contains added sodium chloride and potassium bicarbonate.

 

In simple terms, Malted Milk Food is a powdered dinner, best suitable for getting ready different wholesome wellbeing supplements. This powdered dinner is prepared from a blend of malted grain and wheat flour, in this way treating the blend till it transforms into a fine substance.

Process of Manufacturing of Malted Milk

Malted milk is the malt product prepared with the mash liquor resulting from a mash of barley malt and wheat flour. Malted Barley is diastatic in nature because of which starch gets converted into sugar.  The process of malted barley is majorly divided into four steps:

i. Mash liquor production: 

At first,  the malted barley is filtered to remove dust and other foreign matter from the barley. Then the crushing step takes place using an in-line roller mill and mixed with high-grade wheat flour. After conveying the mix to the mash tanks water  is continuously added at 40°C - increased to 70°C within about 40 min-  to prepare a uniform slurry. The slurry is held at 70°C for about 35 min and during this process the starch present in it is hydrolysed by diastase, while the complex cereal proteins are converted into simpler protein substances. After this the slurry temperature is again raised to 78°C and is held for about 20 min to stop further activity of enzymes and also to achieve maximum cereal solids. The mash is then finally passed through a centrifugal separator to remove the insoluble husk and to obtain clear liquor, known as ‘wort’.

ii. Mix preparation: 

Now that the wort has been prepared, it is mixed with predetermined quantities of standardised milk, diluted malt extract, sugar, salts, minerals and vitamins in a mix preparation tank.  The percentage and the amount of contribution of each ingredient depends upon final formulation of the product.

To increase nutritional value of the product by providing high quality fat,proteins, minerals and vitamins - Milk solids are added. 

To enhance flavour and energy level of the final product - Milk fat is used. 

Salts are added to the wort to optimise product pH to improve digestibility, and to provide essential salts, especially calcium. . 

Malt extract/barley malt powder provides desired level of colour and typical caramelised flavour to the finished product. 

iii. Evaporation and drying:

The product, after the removal of around two-thirds of the water content, is then transferred to a steam jacketed evaporator in order to facilitate the removal of the water and to prevent excessive caramelisation. The mass product is dried and the dried product is then cooled down in an air-conditioned room to avoid moisture pick up, scraped off the trays and milled into fine powder. Then it is transferred to inline mixers to mix salts, dry vitamins and minerals and then packed in bottles or refill packs.

iv. Spray Drying of Malted Milk: 

Tray-drying method generally used in preparing malted milk food under vacuum is a batch operation which ultimately increases the cost of the product. On the other hand the Spray drying method is comparatively cheaper owing to the high volume of continuous and automated operation.

This is a brief knowledge of the process of malted milk food . To know more about malt based food or malted milk food in India - Contact - Mahalaxmimaltextract.

TIME FOR HEALTHY BREAKFAST WITH BARLEY

 Barley is a simple and common grain which mostly everyone  uses in their pantries, but do you know why it is considered as a healthy breakfast and what are its beauty benefits.

Barley is a nutritional rich meal packed with fiber and various essential minerals such as manganese, selenium, copper, and tryptophan. It is relatively low in calories, high in fiber, and packed with vitamins and nutrients which provides you energy and keeps you feeling satisfied for the whole of the day. The manganese present in barley helps you feel happy and also helps calming down your nervous system. 

Barley, when compared to other grains, is a low calories grain which helps you feel full longer, so you don’t need to eat as frequently. It ultimately helps to reduce weight - partially because of  its fiber content, and partially because of various essential amino acids. Not only this, as per malted barley powder manufacturers Barley modulates the blood sugar levels, thus avoiding the high or low sugar level usually associated with the fat storage process. Also fiber present in barley minimizes the amount of time food stays in your colon and helps lowering cholesterol in people with high cholesterol.
