Full details, logistics & FAQ
Malting barley is a premium grain grade selected for high germination energy, controlled protein and low nitrogen content — the parameters that determine extract yield and fermentation performance in brewing and distilling. Demetra Trading sources malting barley from established Black Sea and Baltic growing regions where crop management and post-harvest handling meet malt house requirements.
Key quality parameters include germination above 95%, protein typically in the 10–12% range, moisture below 13.5% and absence of sprouted or heat-damaged kernels. Each cargo is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis and phytosanitary certificate; independent survey at loading is available on request.
Shipments are structured on FOB Black Sea or Baltic terms for buyers arranging their own freight, with CIF and DAF options available. Typical parcel sizes range from 3,000 MT trial stems to full Panamax programs. Contact our desk with your malt house specification and target shipment window.
