GrainCorp profits nearly double on last year's record-breaking harvestGrainCorp's profits have surged off the back of last year's record-breaking grain crop and strong United States demand for craft beer.
The Australian Stock Exchange-listed company said revenue surged as huge stocks of grain moved through its storage, handling and export facilities.
The east-coast grain handler's profits more than doubled, from $53 million last year to $142 million by September 30, 2017.
Beer boom GrainCorp's malting barley business has been a strong performer recently, and continued growth in the craft beer market saw that success continue this year.
"To produce a barrel of an IPA takes anywhere between two or three times the amount of malt that would go into a standard light pilsner" chief executive officer (CEO) Mark Palmquist said.
"It's not just the increased consumption of beer, but the added use of malt to produce these types of craft beers," he said.
The company is eyeing Scotland as the next big source of malt demand.
"That market is changing from a blended scotch whiskey to a single malt, paralleling the craft beer market.
"That is even if the consumption isn't going up β the single malt uses 100 per cent malt inside of the product, whereas blended products will use other carbohydrates like wheat and corn."
The company invested heavily into its oils business in 2014, citing rising demand for canola oil from food manufacturers.
But it said the performance of the business was "disappointing", and the pay off from upgrading its Melbourne refinery was not what they had hoped for.

Heck, even my Bros-in-law stocks some at his bar in Croatia π I'll try some when I get there. We're kicking off our "Last Tango in Europe" tour come May. Intend to wave the "Missouri Battle" flag with the "Estelada" in Barcelona if my spouse doesn't lock me in a closet ... which she has threatened to do. Has anyone here ever attended the Galway, Ireland International Arts Festival? Looking for 'down-to-earth' reviews.

We'll be flying into Dubrovnik on May 30, taking the ferry to Korcula on June 1, on to Hvar on the 3rd, then into Split on June 5 where we have 2 nights reserved. We're flying out of Split to Rome on June 9th, so I still have 2 full days and nights to plan. Baska Voda is about 30 miles south of Split? Any exciting adventures in your parts?
