Scope and Content Barley is steeped, germinated on a floor (when known as green malt), turned to keep cool, then dried in a kiln to halt germination. The kilned, malted barley is milled to produce grist which would then be put through the 'mashing' process where the grist is heated in 'liquor' or hot water (producing 'wort') prior to mixing with more hot water and fermented to produce 'wash' to which yeast is added. The wash is heated in stills and distilled to produce whisky.
