London’s brewing scene is arguably more vibrant today than ever, and French & Jupps is exceptionally proud to have been a part of it, supporting brewers for over two centuries. With deep historical ties to this city, our malting operations began in 1810 on the banks of the Thames at Kew Bridge.
We recently had the pleasure of hosting the Maltsters Association of Great Britain (MAGB) here at French & Jupps maltings in Hertfordshire.
We’ve been working closely with our local Hertfordshire farmers throughout the seasons, and despite some early weather challenges their dedication and expertise have yielded a fantastic crop for 2024.
Explore the journey of barley from harvest to specialty malts like Cara Malt, Crystal Malt and Black Malt to nutritious malt flour for baking & food production at EDME.
