Planet is a spring barley variety, now replacing Propino as the most popular spring brewing variety of malting barley grown in the UK. Planet has proved to be so versatile, it has become a very widely grown cereal variety.
All Muntons grain malts for the home beer making market are made from the finest two row English barley. The exacting specifications ensure that the home beer maker can achieve the best possible extract from the grains.
Muntons provides only premium grade malt to ensure that even with small scale brewing processes you start with the finest ingredients.
It has been Muntons policy for many years not to supply anything other than top quality premium malts for home beer makers.

Planet has a high yield and performs very well in the brewhouse. We recommend a mashing temperature of at least 65°C as this is the average gelatinisation temperature for this variety. Mashing at a lower temperature could cause a slow conversion or even stall as the starch might not fully gelatinise. Planet has a cereal-forward taste complemented with a mild nuttiness, imparted because of its slightly higher attenuation level. Our Pale and Extra Pale malts made from Planet malting barley are considered by many to be some of the finest Spring barley malts available.
