This Depression era video will surely be popular very soon once the new great depression sets in
Even if you don't like to drink Malted Milk or Malted Milk Shakes, this powder is amazing in pancakes, muffins, breads, cakes & cookies, in candies, on snacks & nuts, it is natural and is actually good for you! Personally, I love Malted Milk and the flavor it provides in pancakes and baked goods. Thanks for stopping by! :-)
This makes a really good flavored powder - great for baking and mixing up with milk and or ice cream for an old time malt - I drink a lot of this - Good Stuff :-) Thank you for stopping by!
BTW if you want to do a little more work before you grind it up and want to get even more of the starch converted to sugar do this:
put the sprouted and dried barley while it is still hot from the dehydrator in an insulated cooler thermos or a stock pot wrapped in insulation , pour in water that is exactly 165F-169F just enough to cover the already warm barley , cover it and wait 2 hours , strain out the liquid and dry the barley a second >grind it into powder and add powdered milk (you wont need as much sugar)
(note : you can shine a heat lamp on the bottom of the pot and insulate the top and sides . The idea is to keep it at 145F-160F for 2 hours . ideally at 155-160F for the first hour and 145-150F the second hour . You can do this by plugging your heat lamp into a thermostat (the bulb of the thermostat in the stock pot ) set it at 159F the frit hour and 149F teh second hour
. You will find that the barley is much sweeter after the hot water soak but it may not have as many vitamins as your original recipe .
So, basically if you are going for the the minerals and vitamin, omit the hot soak??
This is a great find for me! Ive bought malted milk for years, Ive even ground up whoopers to make a malt at home. I never knew how this was made, but now I do. I cannot thank you enough for sharing this with all of us!
You're welcome! My husband loves Malted Milk Powder - I make this a lot for him and it's healthy too.
Great; It's easy, tastes great and best of all, it's healthy! Enjoy.
@@BacktoBasicsGal Are you still making videos?
As a home brewer, I have pretty good understanding of the malting process. The barley purchased at home brewing stores are already malted (sprouted enough to crack the endosperm) to allow for standard milling processes (crushing the grain to expose the endosperm). With this process in mind, why does the barley need to be sprouted again?
Suggestion: if you buy malted barley from home brewing store, ask to use there mill to make it easier to get a smoother texture.
THE SPROUTING CHANGE THE STRUCTURE OF THE WHEAT AND RELEASES THE VITAMINS SO THE BODY CAN USE THEN. FOR BEER IT ALSO RELEASES THE SUGARS.
I bought regular barley seed - it still has the husk on it. You can find it in animal feed stores or in beer brewing supply stores - the hull-less barley won't work, it has to be whole barley. Some varieties of Barley are sweeter than others at the brewery stores I found out - just ask for the sweeter barley seed! Thanks!
How about hulled barley?
Be careful, this is an addictive food! LOL - We drink a lot of this and use the powder in pancakes, waffles, etc. Its very healthy, provides fiber, and as a bonus, tastes really good and is a whole lot cheaper than buying it pre-made. Glad you found the info useful :-) and thank you for stopping by!
:-) Thank you for Stopping by! Malted Milk Powder is Really Good stuff! :-)
I should have mentioned this in the video but I always am concerned about the time factor! I use about 3 tbsp. to a glass of milk; (you can use water but I like it thicker), add sugar to taste. The Malted Milk by Carnation adds a little wheat flour to theirs but I don't. Yes, you can "dry" the Barley in the oven on the lowest heat; it may not take as long either, just make sure you periodically mix it while you are drying. You can add chocolate like Nestlé's; you can serve this hot or cold!
GOD BLESS YOU !! I have not had this for ever because of all the chemicals in the store bought !
I have been trying to find out how to make something like carnation malt powder for years! Thanks SO much for posting this!
Great treat. Thanks. Love your cost saving recipes.
Hi Sunbunny Prepper - I will get the exact amounts and post; I have a habit of just making the stuff I use and don't really use a recipe; I will work on being more exact on measurements or I will post them so I don't confuse anyone - I want to make sure people can use and make what I post so I will definitely work on that - Thank you for bringing that to my attention! :-)
Did you ever do this?
Thanks for the response; sounds yummy! I'm going to be looking for barley at the local brew shop this weekend!
Thanks, this makes the best malt milkshakes, and adds a good flavour to buckwheat pancakes
Oh WOW thanks so much for sharing this. I have always loved malted things and I never realized I could make my own so easily. Malted mixes cost around $5 in this part of Canada and I have some milk powder I need to rotate through.
Awaiting my food hydrator and are waiting anxiously to try this recipe. We love malt, and it would save us allot of money if I can make this myself. Thanks for the recipe
I love knowing this now! Thanks for showing it.
We drink this almost every morning and we use it to make malts - It is easy to make and a whole lot cheaper to make also! Glad you enjoyed :-)
I'll have to try this. I haven't had malted milk in 30+ years! I always liked it as a kid.
I'm in Canada and the only place that offered a Malted Milk Shake was at the little restaurant in the Hospital. That ended in the 60s! The only other product that is similar but really weak tasting is O'valtine.
I so miss the taste of Malt. I'm going to try getting the barley seed from an animal feed mill and make it myself.
Thank you for this wonderful lesson.
Thank you for that amazing recipe!!! You saved me thousands of dollars,, no,, seriously!! XXX
Thank you so very much for sharing! Awesome Video!
I have a flour mill. I am going to try this soon. I need to get a dehydrator. Never knew how easy it was.
Thank you so much for teaching us thus !!
Thank you for this video! I found some delicious honey malted barley at a local brew shop and a really good quality whole milk powder; and used vanilla sugar as well. I much prefer the homemade malted milk because it’s not as sweet as the packaged one.
I would like to learn more your dehydration method. I'm kind of new to your channel, so I will keep looking through your videos to see if you cover this somewhere else.
Great video!
Posted recipes on my blog for everyone - I even included my Malted Pancake Mix for you! See the link under the video above! Thanks for stopping by! :-)
Got to do this now. Love your videos. Thanks for the instructions.
Thank you! :-) We make this about every other month - My better half, "The City Guy" is addicted to it - He adds chocolate milk powder for a change from the plain version too. Let me know how you like it!
No wheat berries; Just Barley Seed - Earlier I had started another tray of Wheat Grass and simply misspoke! :-( Sorry for the confusion!
wow this looks great! never dehydrated barley seeds before, got to try this!
You are a good person thx for sharing
Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Your thoughts and time are appreciated :-) God Bless
THis is really cool because I was worried about how to get the husk off the barley ! BUt you solved the issue by just grinding it up and drinking it !!!!Now Im not worried anymore ! That-a-girl !
You have been deceived. She's a liar. This is NOT how to make malted milk. She has a container of purchased Diastatic malt powder right on the front of the bench and mixing THAT with powdered milk is not how it is done. You have to extract the malt from the malted barley flour. It is way easier to extract it from the dried malted berries. All you do is cover well with hot water and maintain the heat at 120F for 1.5 hours. Then strain off and reduce the liquid to a really thick syrup, pour onto a dehydrator tray and dry totally..turning the mass once during the drying process. Grind to a powder and THEN mix it with the powdered milk.
Extracting from the flour is messy, time consuming and EXPENSIVE. I believed her lies and purchased a pound of that for $22. I could have gotten the extract of milk powder for $5.a pound.
I love Malted Milk! Can you post the recipe; including how to mix the actual drink? Since I don't have a dehydrator can I do this in the oven? Also, would you recommend a product like Nestle Quick or baking cocoa with sugar if you want to make it chocolate flavor?
Thanks alot Ma. I really will like to try this homemade malted milk
Thanks for the information, I've had a hard time finding out exactly what malted milk is. I knew a lot of breweries that survived the prohibition by making malt, but now it makes a lot of sense why they did, since it's the same process to germinate grains for beer.

@Heaseba
I don't know . . . sounds to me like you decided to extract the maltose instead of following this lady's recipe, then got mad when it was a lot more work and expense than you wanted.
@@eyesofthecervino3366 No. I did EXACTLY what she said to do and the resulting 'drink' was nothing like malted milk. It was floury and nasty.
I have since purchased malt extract powder for beer brewing and I use 1 desert spoon full in a cup of hot milk with a little salt and sugar to taste. It is delicious.
When these dry I want to add them to homemade bread. Similar to sprouted wheat.
Can't wait to add the mix to pancakes.
WoW that looks good. Can I add coco powder to make chocolate malted milk or does that not taste good? I don't think I have ever tried malted milk but I have heard about it so many times.
This would be Awesome with Powdered Cacao Choclate , blended with Hemp Milk .I've always loved the malt Shops in the Hudson Bay when I was in my early Teens ...
"SMELLA VISION" Yes we do need it!
haha good one!
Was curious do you buy the barley seeds that are hulled or not hulled? Thinking of getting a dehydrator and trying this. I love malted things.
Thank you! I use to love malted milk back in the 1970's. I bought a jar in the 1990's and it wasn't the same. I bought a jar today, and it was horrible. All gummy at the bottom and the taste was not like I remembered.... I think this natural way is much healthier and better.
brought up on horlicks (what you just made) so now going try myself, try adding bit cocoa or drinking choc to it or cold with ace and mint leaves in summer
You Should Have Explained The Details of Your Recipe A Lot More Below The Video! Like What Kind Of Milk Powder And Where Did You Get It! I LOVE MALTS!!! When We Were Kids Back In The Early 50's And On, My Mom & Dad Would Take Us To Andie's Candies For Malts Here In Chicago And They Were Great! And There Was ONLY ONE MALT That They Used! And That Was Horlick's Malt!
The Original Horlick's Malt Was, Is, And Always Will Be The Best!
They Only Put A Small Scoop In Each Malt And It Had A Strong Malt Flavor Because Horlick's Malt Was Made So Good That It Didn't Take Much! I MISS HAVING A GREAT MALT!!!
Thanks for video! Did you really use wheat berries ( I even checked the transcript) or barley? Thanks
Looks yummy
So cool. Thanks
So u don't have to toast the grains after u dehydrate them? U can just use them in a drink straight out like that?or do u boil it in water then add milk and sugar?
Do you have a recipe for Home made "Malt-O-Meal", from farina and malted Barley powder?
@BacktoBasicsGal
Don't we have to "Roast" Barley seeds ?
Is Roasting really required?
One of my favorites too! I think the sugar and chocolate negate the health benefits but I won't tell if you don't! LOL
Interesting video. What is this milk powder?
You sound just like my aunt in North Dakota.Thank You
VERY COOL. I DID NOT KNOW THIS. NOW I DO. I CAN DO THIS. GOD BLESS
Can this sprouted barley be freeze dryer before grinding in malted milk powder.
What was in the big can that you added? Powder milk, Malted barley grains, and???
That's cool; interesting you can find it in the baby food section but it is really healthy and it tastes really good so it makes sense! Thanks :-)
Hello!!! I bought Barley flour , can i still make malted milk powder from it??
I like to mix my Malted Milk Powder with the Carnation Instant Vanilla Breakfast - That's close :-) My better-half likes Ovaltine; I will try it!
Thanks:-)
Hello,
What barley did you use?
Bob’s Red Mill sell a variety of barley called “Whole Hull-less Barley” and the Home Brewing websites sell several different varieties of barley. I would like to order some barley, but I am not sure what variety will duplicate your recipe.
Thank you so much for your time.
Great video, thanks for sharing.. God Bless..
That's pretty cool! Who knew my life-long love of Whoppers was actually good for me? :~)
Actually it isn't, when it's baked it kills the nutritional value
It would be nice if you could post the recipe and procedure in the show more section. Sometimes you say something and then change it along the way. This way we are getting the real recipe and can make it the correct way with the correct amounts. Thanks for the video and Have a great day
I liked this video. has anyone ever tried using wheat berries in place of the barley?
You can, I just saw a video on it.
You can malt any grain, even buckwheat which is not a true grain.
Question: Your version doesn't involve sprouting the barley. Is that a extra step that can be skipped?
I think I used a wrong ingredient intead of barley berries I use pearl barley, it’s already 2 days soaking but I saw some sprout what should i do?
wait! you are using wheat not barley so my barley husk problem is not solved although I have an idea now : that I could grind up the sprouted> dried> hot water soaked >redried barley and put through a shifter to remove the husks ....or better yet put it in the blender while its still in its soak water and strain it through 12-14 mesh polypropylene screen
I saw a lot of commentators are concerned about the husks, and the presenter mentioned berries that didn't get ground into flour. Wouldn't this be a good time to dig out that dusty old flour sieve your grandmother used way back when? Then all the larger pieces would be removed.
I used instructions as per the video although I found that the 'blender' treatment simply wasn't turning out the right 'grain' size conducive to malt mix. The flavor was terrific but was getting a lot of fiber particles along with it. Perhaps the syrup method would work better however I wasn't too keen on the idea as much is lost (though my chickens don't seem to mind at all).
What I did was to purchase a 'The Kitchen Mill' made by 'Blendtec' from Homesteader's Supply located in Tennessee (available on the web at ). You will run into Jerri who owns and operates the store. Jerri does everything possible to supply good products and keep prices down to a dull roar. If ya go this route, please tell Jerri Paul in Sonora, Ca. sent ya
The mill works wonderfully and is just right for home use. I has variable settings for flour grain and works just as well for wheat, rice, and/or what ever dry grain you might wish to flour without having to search all over the place for specialty products. Most animal feed stores carry many grain products, Just make sure you clean it well before milling.
I found that running the malted barley thought my mill on 'fine' flour setting and mixing with powdered milk and sugar I get a really good mix that makes not only a excellent milked drink but goes well with ice cream and in breads and rolls.
Sound s good, but you mentioned "the vanilla sugar that you made this morning" but you didn't link to it. how do you make it?

How much Malt is added to a pound of Farina to make Malt-0-Meal. Is your Malted Milk sprouting method easier and quicker than Beer makers and their Malt preparation?
Determined to stay on budget & with my latest addiction to Great Value brand hot chocolate … Well here we are! Okay, this is a strong consideration for making Malt. Because I believe it’s what I’m loving about that particular brand hot chocolate {in k-cups only} sold for nearly $5/12pk. The Carnation brand malt is delicious no doubt, but paying such a daygone premium for so little product isn’t working. So I Thank You for this interesting & informative tutorial! Oh brother, so Barley huh?? Aaaaand an oven-friendly dehydrator rack? Alright. Tell me … How might You make a deliciously creamy hot milk chocolate beverage, in powder form, so that we can simply scoop & sip!? Vanilla sugar + your special diy malt + cacao/cocoa + pink Himalayan sea salt + dry milk + boiling H2O, is that everything you think? [[[I taste a nice salty component & adore this pink salt, use it daily. Seems to help with muscle pain & leg cramps, thankfully. Oh! I add a tiny bit of coconut oil in every cup, which is super tasty as well. NomNOMNom
Nice offering!
🥥
Nifty!
cool
This is safe to consume raw? I've seen others cooking the sprouted barley after drying it out...
I would think toasting could enhance flavour, not sure about the effect on the vitamins though
How do you make chocolate?
Thanks. I'm doing this right now. The water had turned a dark red. I had never heard about this type of barley before. These are in the hull so we will see what happens. These are suppose to have all the nutrients because they haven't been polished.
That sounds interesting - great added fiber too. Are they bubbling? (They usually start late in the day after you start soaking them.)
Do you let the barley soak covered in water the total time or do you drain it and sprout like other seeds not covered in water just rinsed for the 2 days? I'm trying this with purple barley. They were the only ones that weren't polished.
I change the water out and keep them in the water for the 2 days. They will bubble so you need to either put a piece of cheese cloth over the jar lid with a rubber band or put a hole in the canning jar lid so it can release the gas bubbles. Let me know how you like it. You can get the barley at wine making supply stores. I have not heard of purple barley - :-)
It tastes great. I'll be making more. Thank you so much for sharing.
101sweetmom So glad you enjoyed this. It is a staple here! :-)
These bubbled like crazy. If I hadn't seen your video I would of thought that I had done something wrong and probably thrown it out. Now it's dehydrating. It took a couple of extra days but I think that was because it was cooler here. They sprouted. Hoping these taste like the malted flavour that I remember.
It is kinda crazy how much they bubble! I love the sweet, malty smell of the grain while it dehydrates too! This is wonderful to add to bread, pancakes or as a drink - we go through a lot of this. Let me know how yours turns out! Best wishes - Stay safe and stay warm!
It has finished dehydrating so I've sealed it up in a mason jar for now. This weekend has been busy. I won't have a chance to grind it up until the end of the week. That's when it will get interesting to try some stuff. DH says that I'm close to start making beer. LOL
what if we don't have a dehydrator? Also once its all made, how much of it do you add to milk?
Hi Jayme Rios; as an option, you could "dry" them in the oven on the lowest temperature. If you live in a dry and warm climate, you could dry them in the sun - you just need to put them out on a screen and place a screen over the top to protect them from birds or bugs. In the summer here, a friend of mine dries hers that way and it works for her. As for how much to put into your milk, it is up to you. I use about a tablespoon in a small glass of milk (maybe 8 oz) when my city guy uses about a quarter cup! It is really personal taste how much you use! I hope this helps :-) Thanks for stopping by!
I thought you are supposed to roast them lightly before grinding🤔
Malted milk tastes great & promotes weight gain
malted milk powder is made not from malted barley but from malted barley syrup. The syrup is made from malted barley. Soak the malt in hot water 150° F for about an hour or two This is called mashing. With out this soaking in hot water the starches in the malt will not be converted into that wonderful sweet malted syrup. Temperature is rather critical. Below 145 ° F and the enzymes won't activate. Above 155° and the enzymes start breaking apart. In fact, to turn off the enzymes that do the conversion simply raise the temperature to 165° F for about 10 minutes. This will deactivate the diastatic enzymes and give you non-diastatic malt syrup which is what you want for malted milk powdered.
To strain I use two buckets. The lower fitted with a spigot and hose and the inner one drilled with hundreds of small holes. Put the buckets together and place the entire mash into the inner bucket water and all. Drain and re-circulate the water. It will be cloudy and thin at first. As you keep putting it back through the grain bed will settle and the liquid will be come clear, thick and golden.
Use hot water and similar process to extract as much of the sugars as possible. You can then boil the liquid down into a thick syrup. If you wish you can then dehydrate the syrup and grind into a powder.
The way that malted milk is typically made is to take the malt syrup and combine with milk and flour. Mix well then dehydrate the whole mess. You could probably do this with very low heat in pressure cooker that you've hooked a vacuum hose to or in nylon tray in a dehydrator. Or you could dehydrate your malt syrup and combine with powdered milk. Include wheat flour as desired.
I don't bother dehydrating my malt syrup I simply turn it into beer.
Dale NakedToad Shelf life?
She could just soak the dried sprouts 2 hour the 150-160F water soak > dry again > proceed as she did with sprouted and dried berries . Then at least the starches would be converted into sugars ....
Also if you are malting barley for the purpose of eating( making malt flour for baking etc) it how would you get rid of the undigestable barley husks? Would they rub off with the rootlets as your where rubbing the dried sprouted barley in the sieve?
Does this take the "baby formula" taste away from powdered milk? I have tried everything from non fat to the Nido whole milk powder and they all smell and taste like formula to me lol and I dont' think there's an adult alive that cares for that smell lol
Hey there toots, how ya doing? Anyway, most folk call those "berries" that you are talking about....well.... they just call em "grains." Anyway, just wanted to get that info out to you toots. Anyway, looks like some other commenters already mentioned about what the powder is that you made so.... anyway, I won't say it too! Anyway toots, keep up the good work. OK, so anyway, guess I'll be moving along toots. Anyway, you have yourself a good one toots and keep on malting. Anyway toots!
I mix carnation malted powder to my ovaltine because that is how I roll
You need non-diastatic malt for beverages and diastatic malt for baked goods.
Amazing! Instructions without any real instructions! Omits all the steps that I might have wanted to see to be able to make this.
Congrats to me; I still know nothing.
LOL My lips are sealed! :~)
She's never heard the word " GRAIN "
Anyways... atleast 20 times.. anyway, do not mind
