At FoodFarm, we have been providing germination and small-scale malting services for several years, utilizing a patented drum germination and malting system developed in collaboration with the Italian family-owned company Zanin.

We offer flexible batch malting and high-quality germinated products for craft breweries and the food industry—sectors where product origin and full traceability of the production chain are of utmost importance.

Developing customized malts and germinated products is an excellent way to specialize and stand out. FoodFarm’s drum malting system is suitable for germinating virtually any type of seed through the malting process. Our standard batch size ranges from 1,500 to 2,000 kilograms.

Premium Drum Malting

FoodFarm’s Chief of Commercial Operations, Satu Pura, emphasizes the key advantages of the germination and malting system: high product quality, flexibility, scalability, and diverse product development opportunities.

“Developed in collaboration with experts from the brewing industry, our system guarantees premium-quality products.”

In addition to malt production, the drum malting system is also suitable for pure germination, where seeds are activated just enough to enhance nutrient availability. Germination increases the biological activity of fatty acids, improves mineral absorption, and enhances seed digestibility.

Hemp Beer – An Earthy Flavor with a Hint of Citrus

Hemp is an exceptional ingredient in beer, as hops and oilseed hemp are botanically related and naturally complement one another. Beer brewed with hemp offers an earthy flavor accompanied by a subtle citrus aroma. The brewing process is simple—hemp can be blended with hops or added simultaneously with the malts. This allows brewers to concentrate on the most crucial aspect: achieving the perfect flavor.
