UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE RESEARCHERS UNCOVER BARLEY’S BREWING SECRETS University of Adelaide researchers have uncovered the mechanism of barley’s malting characteristics. The researchers discovered a new link between one of the key enzymes in malt production for brewing and a specific tissue layer within the barley grain. The most important malting enzymes come from a layer of tissue in the barley …

Unwrapping the brewing secrets of barley University of Adelaide researchers have uncovered fundamental new information about the malting characteristics of barley grains. They say their finding could pave the way to more stable brewing processes or new malts for craft brewers. Published in the Nature publication Scientific Reports, the researchers discovered a new link between one of the key enzymes involved in malt …
