Hi all, I wanted to share some information I have regarding the possible production and sale of malted millet from Colorado Malting Company. I heard a few weeks ago that they may be producing malted millet for sale to the home brewing community so I checked into it further. I recently sent an email inquiry regarding their millet and received notification that they would put my name an email on the list of potential interested parties. Today I received the following message from them:
I'm guessing some of you already know about it, but I thought I'd post this in case some of you may be interested. I'm really excited about the potential commercial availability of GF malt and imagine that a lot of you out there would be excited to have it available as well. If that's the case, now's the time to rally our collective support and show them that there's a market for this product. They have an online email form that you can send your inquiries to at coloradomaltingcompany.com, or you can send an email to [email protected].
Cheers,
Austin
p.s. I hope posting this doesn't violate any forum rules. I'm not affiliated with the company, just really hopeful this product becomes available commercially.
