1. Malt

First soak, then germinate, then dry – cereal grains go through this process within a week on their way to becoming malt.

2. Grinding

Dried and ground malt grains give the beer its body and colour.

3. Brewing water

Only pure water of drinking water quality and with a low calcium content can be used for brewing water.

4. Mashing

The malt grains are mixed and mashed with water to release all the essential substances for brewing.
