maltster (also malster)A manufacturer of malt. Malting was a trade in its own right, and maltsters generally
independent from either the farmers who produced the barley or the brewers who consumed the
malt, though some of the larger breweries conducted their own malting operations, especially
from the nineteenth century onwards [Mathias (1959) 455-474]. Technically the term ‘maltster’
is feminine (cf brewster), malting having traditionally been the work of women; by the period in
question, however, the enterprise was male-dominated and the term applied largely to men.
