Hull-less barleys were easily milled, mashed, and fermented to ethanol. Problems experienced with viscosity were quickly eliminated by addition of beta-glucanase, but even without enzyme, viscosity decreased over the duration of fermentation. Barley mashes prepared by adding 0.33 kg grain to 1 L of water fermented slightly faster than did corresponding wheat mashes, and over 10% v/v alcohol was obtained (94% of theoretical). Distillers' hull-less barley grains collected at end-fermentation had protein contents similar to dried grains from wheat fermentations and were higher in protein than dried grains obtained from hulled barley. They were correspondingly lower in nondigestible fiber.
