Malt Beverages
• Term for both alcoholic and non alcoholic fermented
beverages.
• Primary ingredient is grain or seed of barley plant which
is allowed to sprout (Malting).
Production process for malt beverage
• The process involved in the production of flavored malt from barley
is essentially controlled germination.
• After barley is received at a malt house the first thing to do is to
clean it .Next process involved is screening of barley

•
Steeping
Process in which the barley grain moisture content is increased
from 12% to 14% .
• Germination
As the grains have been hydrated now the next step is there
germination under strictly controlled environment. This process
takes at least four day
• Kilning
In this process the germinated grains are dried. Different type of
malts are produced using different temperatures.
• Mashing
Mashing converts the malt into fermentable sugars, amino acids,
vitamins and solution etc.
Cont…
• Fermentation
Fermentation is done by using microorganisms yeast
(S.cerevisiae) at specific low temperature for some days.
• Separation/purification:
Then yeast and other dead cells are removed after
centrifugation then by using membrane filtration all the
undesirable content is removed and the permeate collected is
purified.
• Beverage formulation:
Lastly color and other ingredients are added so to add flavours
as desired.
• Bottling:
At the FMB (flavored malt beverage) is bottled and ready for
distribution.

Production process for
Malt (cereal malt)
Biochemical pathway
• Conversion of organic compounds into energy and useful
products.(Fermentation)
• Carried out by certain micro-organism.(Yeast)
• Yeasts produces energy from substrate level phosphorylation
producing ATP and desired product.

Non-Alcoholic Malt Production
• Main biochemical pathway is the same as the rest of
fermentations.
• Alcohol can be removed either by
• Heating
OR
• Reverse osmosis.
Microbes
• Saccharomyces cerevisiae
• lactobacillus spp.
Starter Culture
• Whey, Juices from previous ferment .
• Fermented Liquids such as finished unflavored water kefir.
• Fruit based ferment like Apple Cider Vinegar or Water kefir grains
and Vegan pro biotic also serves the purpose.

Optimum conditions
• Oxygen : Adequate amount of O2 during Adaptive phase . No O2
during Attenuative phase.
• Temperature : 25 – 30°C
• pH: 4.1 - 4.8.
Factors that alter the end product:
• Effect of oxygen
• Temperature
• Secondary metabolites
• Lees Contact
• Distillation
Desired characters of beverages
Aroma
Nutritional characters
Flavor
Color and haze
Importance of Malt beverages
• Malt is most diuretic beverage .
• Suitable in conditions of low protein content in diet
• Refreshing effect of malt due to the CO2.
• Malt contains vitamins A, B, D and E. An important
vitamin found in malt is folic acid.
• Iso alpha acids (usually in hops) and the antibacterial
effect of CO2 the ensure the elimination of any sort of
pathogen from malt.
How fermentation preserves food
• Fermentation produce antimicrobial metabolites and acids which
reduce the pH of the medium.
• Low PH inhibits the growth of food spoiling micro-organisms.
