Top-grade raw materials from the region are the basis for our quality malts. We process two-row summer malting barely and brewing wheat from the best cultivation areas in southwestern Germany. The barley is healthy and pure, fine spelt and strong enzymes.
We actively participate in the selection of the barely variety through continuing and trusting cooperation with our partners involved in barely and wheat research as well as cultivation and agricultural experts.
These measures guarantee that BESTMALZ raw materials have outstanding malt and brewing characteristics.
Comprehensive documentation means each batch of BESTMALZ can be tracked all the way back to its origin.
Malting barely grown with integrated, controlled organic methods guarantees cultivation based on the most modern agriculture and routines with the goal of fulfilling the special demands for quality and environmental aspects.
BESTMALZ refines the high-grade brewing raw material with the most modern malting technology under continuous quality control. The many years of experience and the honed instincts of highly qualified employees are indispensable.
BESTMALZ steeping technology: careful purification, airing, CO2 extraction and climatization is the optimal preparation for the germination process.
