There were quite as few requests that I summarize what I heard back about
the amount of gluten found in malt and malt extract.
Thanks to Diane Hosek for providing the answer from a research study.
To summarize, there can be quite a bit of gluten in malt flavoring. In
this study that examined "how much gluten" , Malt syrup and malt extracts
registered between 1800 ppm to 2000 ppm gluten. Wheat starches had gluten
content ranging from 10 ppm to >5000 ppm. Finally, products that were
labeled as wheat "free" or gluten "free" showed levels ranging from 10 ppm
to 277 ppm..
