S.2 E.14 Millet - Business in the Front, Party in the Back




The BrewDeck Podcast show

Summary: <p>What do millet, buckwheat, sunflower seeds, and hemp have in common? They are all non-cereal grains malted at <a href="https://coloradomaltingcompany.com/"><strong>Colorado Malting Company</strong> </a>in Alamosa, Colorado. The obscure malts can be added to a traditional grain bill or singularly to produce gluten-free beer and spirits. </p> <p>Today's guests, brothers <strong>Josh</strong> and <strong>Jason Cody</strong>, take farm-to-tap to a new level as the only brewery in the world where every ingredient in its beers comes from the family farm. </p> <p>Josh and Jason's grandfather started the family-run Colorado Malting Company and then passed it onto their father. Located in San Luis Valley of Southern Colorado, Alamosa, this <strong>farm-to-glass</strong> operation is positioned in a unique climate with crazy heat/UV indexes, making it exceptional for growing small grains and bringing those to harvest high-quality status.</p>
