What is Malt?
[[File:Malt.JPG|thumb|150px|Malt]] '''Malt''' is [[cereal]] [[grain]] that is [[Germination|sprouted]] and then dried by hot air. It is sometimes used in [[brewing]] and the manufacture of malt [[vinegar]]. Malt is high in sugar because when the grain sprouts, much of its [[starch]] changes to [[sugar]]. If the malt is dried with fire, it can have a smoky flavor. The [[sugar]] from the malt can be [[Fermentation|fermented]] into [[beer]] and [[whisky]]. {{food-stub}} [[Category:Sweeteners]]
