Mission: The Cereal Crops Research Unit will support public sector barley breeders by providing the malt quality analyses necessary to assist in making knowledgeable selections for generation of high quality malting barleys. Primary Objective: Generate malts from barleys submitted to us from public sector breeders. Analyze the malts and report the data back to the submitting researcher(s). Materials and methods: The methods used for the physical and chemical analyses of micro-malts are, for the most part, ASBC procedures. Some automated versions of the standard methods are used, in which case they have been standardized against the standard ASBC methods. In order to ensure that the methods used and results produced at CCRU are representative, we participate in three quality analysis collaboratives comparing our analyses of common samples and standards with those of other analytical laboratories. Micro-malts are prepared with 170 g (dw) samples, if sufficient grain is available. Smaller samples are used with appropriately modified procedures if sample quantity is insufficient for the full sample size. The samples are steeped to 45% moisture at 16 ◦ C, germinated for five days at 17 ◦ C, with intermittent turning and kilned over a period of 24 hours to a final temperature of 85 ◦ C. These conditions have been shown to produce malts with quality characteristics similar to commercially prepared malts. All analytical data and evaluations of the micro-malts are summarized in individual reports that are returned to the breeders submitting samples. An evaluation of the malting quality of selected locations of the Mississippi Valley Regional Spring Barley Nursery and the Western Regional Spring Barley Nursery are provided to interested parties. At the end of the analysis year, the results are compiled into two annual regional reports. Data from the pre-screen and pilot scale analyses were submitted to AMBA for collaborative evaluation. Changes in current funding year: Personnel: Mr. Andrew Standish has replaced Mr. Donovan Craig. Andy is a graduate of the Botany department at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. Andy started work on March 5, 2007 and is 100% supported by the AMBA grant over his current 9 month appointment. Equipment: Our very old kiln was replaced with a new version from Standard Industries Inc. of Fargo, ND. The new kiln allows us greater control and monitoring of kilning parameters and provides increased sample throughput capabilities. 112
We recently secured an industrial chiller to cool the process water in the malting lab. The incoming cold water at the new laboratory was several degrees higher than at the old facility and a chiller was necessary to achieve the required temperature for steeping.
