 malted barley into the grain hopper

Here the malted barley is cracked open (not floured) to allow full hydration of the starchy kernel during the mash. We use only barley malt in all of our beers - except, of course, the HefeWeizen which includes 50% wheat malt. There are no cheapening adjunct grains or sugars added at any time. The grist is augured from the mill into the hopper where it awaits mashing in.
