Malting quality characteristics of Korean and north American barley varieties.
1989
Lee W.J.
Eight samples of Korean two-rowed barley, 9 samples of North American barley and 3 samples of Korean six-rowed barley were analyzed for 1,000 kernel weight, steeping time, germinative capacity, and protein content. The barley samples were malted with the same malting schedule and analyzed for malting loss, protein content, soluble protein, percent extract, wort viscosity, and diastatic power. The American barleys were higher in germinative capacity, percent extract and diastatic power than the Korean two-rowed barleys. The protein content ranged from 11.8 to 14.2 % for the North American barleys and 9.7 to 15.5 % for Korean barleys. The three Korean six-rowed barleys were lower in germinative capacity, percent extract and diastatic power, but were higher in wort viscosity than the Korean two-rowed barleys.
