Effect of varied period of germination during malting of sorghum grain on the physicochemical characteristics of its mash.
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 50°C for 8
hours. The overall sprouting of the sorghum grains were commendable as 92%
germination rate was obtained at the 5h day of termination of germination
during the malting process. In obtaining the mash, the samples (malt} were
mashed at 650C 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
