[Sca-cooks] malt

[otsisto]

Actually I was asking whether the b-malt was used as a leavening agent
instead of sugar.

Bear, I think Lyse meant using the barley malt as a sweetener. You are
talking about ale barm as a leavening agent, right? Not as a sweetener.

I do have this tiny file on malt, but I don't remember it saying
anything about using malt as a sweetener.
