We invented an automated home malting machine

... and what was captured by the "Internet Archives" "Wayback Machine" isn't easy for me to navigate.

Here's a link to the sprowtmalt.com home page that the "Wayback Machine" captured.

@homemaltster hasn't been seen here since the Fall of 2018 and the sprowtmalt.com domain name is available...

Cheers!

There has to be some other resources for making a home germinator and kiln?

Let's check with the resident home-maltster...

Damn.

Do a search containing malting keywords in threads and posts by our member @bracconiere. Stick to the technical forums.

To make malt you'll need:

1. A source of grain (barley, wheat, rye, etc).
2. A (large) vessel that's watertight to use for washing, then germination while keeping the grain damp and warm while being turned regularly, until the grain has malted sufficiently. It's green malt at that point. @bracconiere was using a (spare) bathtub for malting until he found something better.
3. The green malt then needs to get slowly dried, then roasted to desired color and flavor. You can use an oven. Or better and easier, a clothes dryer, which is what @bracconiere used, later on.
