  1. Why does malted barley taste so good in chocolate milk and so bad in beer and whiskey?

  2. I’m doing a disinfection boil on my brew system in preparation for the brew day. Hopefully my brother will visit and help out with the brewing. Today’s brew will be a smash lager with Swedish malt and a recently rediscovered Swedish hop variety.

    It won’t be a regular lager, but I’m hoping it will be tasty at least.

  3. "🏺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! "

    Takahiro held the amber #malt up to the #light, showing his appreciation with a tiny nod, then handed it to Midori.

    Rabbit House was currently quiet, with Aoyama Midori being the only customer. She took a sip and sighed with contentment. “Nice.”

    “Are you visiting anyone for Obon?” he asked, leaning against the bar. With just Midori and himself, he could relax. It was a soft, warm evening, perfect for that.

    “My daughter. It was a swimming accident.”

    “I’m sorry.” He paused. “I didn’t know you had a daughter.”

    “I don’t talk about it. Maybe I’ll write a story about her someday, but right now, cute will do. Chino reminds me of her. Cute, quiet, shy, good kid. I miss her.”

    “Where is she?”

    “Cimetière du Lapin Vert. Tomorrow morning, I’ll buy some flowers, marigolds. She loved them, and they’re bright like her smile.”

    “Would you mind taking Chino? Her mother wanted to see her.”

    She nodded, and Takahiro slid another malt whiskey across to her. “On the house.”

  7. CW: Enzymes and Oat Drinks for the Revolution

    Based on science (see above toot), I concluded that you can make #oat milk using diastatic #malt (aka. active baker's malt), since malt naturally contains the enzyme #amylase, which breaks down starches into sugars. While #sprouting, the berries produce this enzyme to digest the starches.

    Producing malt from cereal berries is easy and doesn't require special equipment, but it takes some time. However, you don't need a lot of malt, so you don't need to do this often.

    - Sprout some cereal berries. You don't need one of these fancy sprouting glasses -- a nutbag or muslin cloth (which you need to make plant milks anyway) is all you need; you'll find instructions online. Sprouting takes a few (3-5) days, so plan ahead.
    - Spread the sprouts on a baking tray and bake them at 50-60 °C (= 122-140 °F) until the grains are completely dry.
    - Pour the flour into a box and keep it in a fridge.

    Traditionally, malt is made using #barley (which contains a lot of amylase), but you can also make it with other grains. For #oats, however, you need to use "naked oats".
