New Canadian Malting Barley Varieties: Kendall

The agronomic yield of Kendall is about 108% of that of Harrington

Submitted by Bill Ladish on Wed, 11/22/2006 - 3:33pm

In a previous article we discussed the drop in acres planted to Harrington in Canada during the mid- to late-1990s and afterwards, after a long and distinguished reign in international commerce. The declines were driven by the comparatively improved agronomics of newer lines of crops which compete with malting barley for acreage in Canada, and by the improved agronomics of newer 2-row malting barley varieties released in order to keep malting barley competitive with these other crops. read more …

New Canadian Malting Barley Varieties: Metcalfe

Agronomic yield for Metcalfe is about 8.5% higher than Harrington

Submitted by Bill Ladish on Fri, 10/20/2006 - 5:03pm

The Canadian 2-row malting barley variety CDC Harrington has long been the standard bearer of international commerce. Its smooth and neutral flavor profile, combined with enzyme levels significantly higher than traditional European varieties of the same level of total protein, makes it well suited for the production of lager beers. Harrington was developed by Dr. Bryan Harvey at the Crop Development Centre at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon. read more …

Dubbel Vision

Perhaps it's a product of divine intervention

Submitted by Jim Dorsch on Tue, 10/10/2006 - 11:21am

I had a vision. A vision of a beer that's big, brown, estery and malty, yet not so heavy as a barley wine. A vision of a beer topped with a beautiful, thick, creamy, tan head. A vision of a beer that can take the nip out of a cold winter night. A beer that's, well, heavenly.

That beer is Belgian-style dubbel. read more …

New Canadian Malting Barley Varieties: Copeland

A definite step forward in agronomic performance

Submitted by Bill Ladish on Fri, 08/11/2006 - 12:00pm

In a previous article we discussed the drop in acres planted to Harrington in Canada during the mid- to late-1990s and afterwards, after a long and distinguished reign atop international commerce. The declines were driven by the comparatively improved agronomics of newer lines of crops which compete with malting barley for average in Canada, and by the improved agronomics of newer 2-row malting barley varieties released in order to keep malting barley competitive with these other crops. read more …

Before You Purchase a Malt Silo

Malt-handling isn't such a back-breaker when you have a silo and a good delivery system

Submitted by George Manset on Mon, 05/15/2006 - 1:03pm

Brewing may seem to be synonymous with heavy lifting unless a practical malt storage (read that silo) and efficient conveying system is part of the brewhouse. Without bulk storage and automatic handling, brewers may be destined to lift more than 100,000 pounds of bagged grain a year. But a properly designed silo (besides saving your back) can provide many economic benefits. Bulk storage shortens the overall brewing process, simplifies malt handling automation, and reduces the cost of malt. read more …
