Dimethyl sulphide in beer originates from a precursor in the malt. A method is described for the measurement of this precursor in brewing raw materials, wort and beer. The precursor levels in various green malts, kilned malts, and adjuncts are given. Excess methionine inhibits precursor uptake by yeast during fermentation. Residual precursor is still present in some commercial bottled beers.
