FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to food industry, in particular, to the process for production of light buckwheat malt and may be used in bakery, confectionary, brewing and kvass production for manufacture of functional and dietary food products. The method involves malting and drying stages. The malting process is implemented by way of spraying buckwheat grains with water at a temperature of 15±1°C during 72-75 h while drying is performed at the water flow rate equal to 0.7-0.9 m/s in two stages, first - during 5-6 h at a temperature of 50±3°C, then- during 5-6 h at a temperature of 60±3°C.

EFFECT: invention ensures reduction of buckwheat malt production process duration reduction, low dry substance losses, preservation of high physicochemical indies and fermentative activity of malt produced.
