VHZG #7 Root Shoot Malting

Get ready for Craft-Malting! "Vom Halm zum Glas" talked to Todd
Olander and Mike Myers from Root Shoot Malting in Colorado about
how they can be in the unique position to control the entire
malting process from seed variety and growth, to harvest, steeping,
germination and final kilning. Root Shoot Malting was the first
craft malthouse in the United States who operate on a KASPAR SCHULZ
malting system. They won the gold medal at the Craft Maltsters
Guild’s inaugural Malt Cup for best Pale Malt in 2019 and the
bronze medal for their Light Munich Malt in 2020. Futhermore they
revealed how local growing and producing of malt becomes more and
more important these days.
