The Maltman® by Sommer gently crushes malt kernels to produce uniform grist with minimal flour while keeping the husk largely intact. This ensures optimal malt preparation for brewing or distilling and creates a natural filter bed for clarification.
Sommer malt mills are ideal for dedicated homebrewers, hobby brewers, and micro- to small-scale breweries with capacities up to 3,000 L per batch. They are also a popular choice for micro-distilleries seeking reliable, high-quality milling performance.
