Etymology
From Middle English malt, from Old English mealt, from Proto-Germanic *malt? (“malt”), from *maltaz (“soft; nesh; weak; squashy; melting”), from Proto-Indo-European *meld-, *mled- (“to crush; grind; make weak”). Cognate with Saterland Frisian Moalt (“malt”), Dutch mout (“malt”), German Malz (“malt”), Swedish malt (“malt”), Old Church Slavonic ????? (mlad?, “tender; young”), Russian ??????? (molodoj, “young; fresh; new”). The Proto-Germanic noun was borrowed into Proto-Slavic as *malta; compare Ukrainian ?????? (mólot), Czech mláto. More at melt.
