TYPES OF BARLEY

Hulled barley

Hulled barley is a whole grain that is processed to remove the tough edible outer shell . Even though pearled barley is still a good source of some nutrients, hulled barley is still the healthier option. This type of barley is considered beneficial when it comes to the risk of chronic diseases.

Barley Grits

Barley grits are the type of barley grains that are made from pearled grains or whole grain barley kernels that have been cut into tiny chunks. Barley grits are comparatively easy and faster to cook.

Barley flour

Barley flour is highly used in baked products as a base and is also used as a thickener in soups, stews and gravies. The scope of application of barley flour is very wide as it is used in the manufacturing of flat bread, for infant foods and for food specialities. 

Barley flakes

Flakes is the  morning diet of most people. These flakes are made by going through the husking process  of kernels of barley at first and then flattening and rolling them. The flakes look like rolled oats, but are comparatively thicker and chewier.

Pearl Barley

Pearled barley is not counted in the category of whole grain but it is still considered a better choice. Pearled barley is a healthy choice and adding it to soups, stir fries and stews can make the recipes healthier and tastier.

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.

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.
