Do you stock any gluten-free malts?

Posted on 27th January 2023

Unfortunately, we don’t offer any gluten-free grain, as it’s simply not viable.

We mill malt to order, the mill room is dusty, to an extent that dust permeates through to the rest of the warehouse and a certain amount of dust/flour carries over within the mill, which is why when we do a milling run we mill by colour so that we are not milling a light malt directly after a dark malt.

As such cross contamination would be impossible to avoid, the only way we would be able to state that a grain is gluten-free would be to process it in a separate building with a dedicated mill, and we simply don’t have the facilities to do that.

However, there are enzymes such as NBS Clarity which while its primary purpose is to improve the clarity of a beer (primarily chill haze) also has the effect of reducing the gluten to below the 20ppm required to state that it is gluten-free. This is dosed at the time of pitching the yeast, and as one of our directors is intolerant to gluten, we use it regularly here at TMM HQ.
