    Glanbia also have some malting barley contracts as do Dairygold I think.

    That is for their Cork based company.

    Ya dmaxman, you are right, me bad. Any idea what malting barley is making?

    Boortmalt price is linked to the MATIF price which is the French milling wheat price less 20 euro for barley adjustment I believe.

    A few sheets of galvanised sheets or even clearlights over the crush would make a world of diffence . We have the crush inside the shed for a good few years and its mighty comfort
