Exploring the Potential of Rice Malt in Brewing

Rice malt is gaining attention as a viable ingredient in brewing, offering an alternative to barley. The study examined 19 diverse rice cultivars' malting and brewing qualities, showing promising results for self-securification at lower temperatures, allowing brewers to extract starch effectively without the need for a cereal mash. Collaborating with international partners, the research showcased a multinational effort in exploring new brewing possibilities.
