Ok i had some malted barley from a brew i made so i figuared what the hell. I soaked it 30 hours put them in boiling water this brought water to a simmer for 10 min. I drained rised dryed in towl. Put in jars pc'ed for 1.5 hours at 18psi.took out looked wet. I let cool for 7 hour still had liquid in it si i open it taste like malt extract. Umm rised it again dryed again pc'ed again for 1hour looked much better. Did a g2g its taking off faster then ive seen before.
Anyone evey tried malted barley? Think it will fruit good?
I may try liquid from jars for a lc. Oh yeah i saved it

What are you growing on it? If P. Cubensis you are better using it as spawn. Don't be shy adding 13-22 grams of granulated gypsum per large spawn bag either. Just heat with water and turn it to mush before using and mix it in real well. Be careful with water content and you should be fine. I really recommend using large spawn bags with spent grain.

I would be really interested to see if this works though. I make about 8 5 gal batches a year and work at a brewery. No more rye for me if this works great.

It is P. Cubensis, Tresure coast. Wonder about the high sugar causing comtams.
