Malt germs
Malt sprouts are a by-product of malt production in the brewery. Malting barley or wheat is cleaned in the malthouse and brought to germination by soaking in water and suitable storage conditions. The germ (in the case of wheat also the leaf germ) breaks through the fruit husk and after seven to nine days is about one and a half times as long as the grain. The so-called green malt is now dried on kilns and roasted to a greater or lesser extent. The result is the kilned malt from which the germs are separated in a malt cleaning machine. Malt germs are characterised by high contents of easily soluble carbohydrates (approx. 13 % sugar), crude fibre (approx. 13 %) and crude protein (approx. 27 %). In animal nutrition, malt culms are mainly used in feeds for ruminants (cows, cattle) due to their nutrient content. However, since malt culms have a good dietary value due to their crude fibre content, they are also used in rabbit feed and in feed for pigs. The specific use, however, requires a precise analysis of the nutrient content, as this is subject to fluctuations depending on the origin of the malt culms.
