Scope and Content Plan and section of malt-barn at Ardbeg, Islay, Argyll The malt barn at Ardbeg is typical of its kind. Inside, barley is stored, then soaked in water, spread out and allowed to germinate. The resulting green malt is dried in a kiln before being used to make whisky. The barley is loaded onto the barley-loft floor. It trickles through the chutes onto the barley band which takes it to the elevator which lifts it to onto the barley band in the rafters. The barley bogie then spreads the barley on the loft floor. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
