EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1886, offering a glimpse into the intricate process of beer-making. The image showcases three essential steps in malting: steeping, couching, and flooring malt. As we delve into the world of brewing, it becomes evident that this art form involves more than just pouring ingredients together. The malthouse depicted in the photograph exudes an air of industry and craftsmanship. A group of men can be seen diligently working on the malting floor, their occupation demanding both strength and precision. Clad in traditional attire from the 19th century, these maltsters expertly handle shovels as they move heaps of barley across the room. The interior setting is reminiscent of a bygone era; its rustic charm is accentuated by wooden beams and aged machinery scattered throughout. It's fascinating to witness how such manual labor played a crucial role in producing one of humanity's oldest beverages - beer. This engraving was originally featured in Charles Tomlinson's Cyclopaedia of Useful Arts, Mechanical and Chemical Manufactures. Preserved through time, this print serves as a testament to our rich history and reminds us that even today's modern breweries owe their existence to these early pioneers who dedicated themselves to perfecting their craft. As we admire this snapshot from yesteryear, let us raise our glasses to those hardworking individuals who paved the way for generations of brewers worldwide.
