was wondering if anybody had any brilliant ideas about this?
there is some brewing-quality 6-row malt domestically available.
we need to supplement this with other imported varieties
from a nearby country such as Thailand, Singapore, Sri Lanka,
Indonesia, New Zealand, Australia, etc...
unfortunately there is 40% import duty, plus 16% education cess
plus shipping, transportation, and lots of logistics, bribes and paperwork...
which translates to almost 70% by the time it reaches our silo.
No local maltster can do anything for us unless a min batch size is 10 tons, which is really out of our scope. Willing to have an exlusive tie up with a maltster for all of our micro/brewpub projects across india if they can
provide us a solution that will make it cost efficient for us
to make craft beer. the market will not be able to absorb a litre of beer for $10 USD, even if it is a great beer! Most suggestions have been to use adjuncts, which is reasonable, but we really need to make all-grain beer to carve out our own niche and educate people to taste quality and variety.
