ABSTRACT
The effect of different period of germination
of sorghum grain during malting on the physicochemical properties of the mash
obtained from such malted sorghum grain was investigated. Germination was
allowed to take place for 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 days respectively after steeping in
water, and all sprouted grains were dried at 509C for 8 hours. The overall
sprouting of the sorghum grains were commendable as 92% germination rate was
obtained at the 5 day of termination of germination during the malting process.
In obtaining the mash, the samples (malt) were mashed at 65°C water without the
addition of exogenous enzymes and chemicals used in industrial brewing. In all,
mash was allowed to saccharify. Statistical analysis on the physicochemical
properties of the mash determined for the respective number of days that
germination took place indicated significant differences (p
