Determination of the residual moisture content of pre-dried barley

Determination of the residual moisture content of pre-dried barley

After the barley has been dried, samples are taken to determine the residual moisture content. Important control, as the residual moisture should not exceed 14.5%. (Protection against too rapid germination or mold formation) Even after the so-called malting (germination), the malt is dried again (drying). You can also determine the residual moisture afterwards, which should not be above 5%
