Malted barley
The term malt refers to several products of the process:
- The grains to which this process has been applied, for example malted barley;
- The sugar derived from such grains which is heavy in maltose, such as baker's malt,
- A product, based on malted milk, similar to a malted milkshake (i.e., "malts").
- whisky or beer can also be called malt as in Alfred Edward Housman's aphorism "malt does more than Milton can, to justify God's ways to Man."

Homebrewing malt extracts: liquid in a can and spray dried.
Maltings
A malting, sometimes called maltings, malthouse, or malting floor, is a building that houses the process of converting barley into malt, for use in the brewing or distilling process. A typical maltings is a long, single-story building with a floor that slopes slightly from one end of the building to the other. There are a number of maltings buildings still in existence, and a handful are still operational.References
