Intelligent Malt was born out of the desire of a brewer to better connect to his supply chain. This craft brewery owner wanted to work more closely with local barley growers and build a malt house to service his brewery. He realized that there was a lack of equipment to service his needs and this led him to conclude that the growing craft malting market needed more equipment opportunities. He assembled a team of maltsters, brewers, and engineers to build Intelligent Malt to meet this need.
