2 stroke Barley grain heads before harvesting #121295947
Description
Used as a flour or an animal feed, barley grain can be dead and still be nutritional, like any grain. But for malting, the grains must still be alive ââ¬â at least 95 percent germinable ââ¬â to drive the chain reaction that turns starch into sugar into alcohol. This is a tricky proposition in New Yorkââ¬â¢s wet climate since water causes the mature grain to sprout and die before harvest.
