Scientific Digest
The effect of storage conditions on post-harvest maturation and maltability of barley
Rainer Reuss1, Julie Cassells, Jane Green, Tracy Willis1, Ralph Nischwitz
1 CSIRO, GPO Box 1700, Canberra, ACT, 2601. Julie.Cassells@csiro.au. www.csiro.au.

Abstract:
Storage conditions have a major influence on the rate at which dormancy breakdown occurs. The rate of
breakdown depends mainly on grain moisture content, storage temperature, storage time and the
characteristics of individual batches of barley. Data presented in this paper are a significant addition to the
existing knowledge on post harvest maturation of Australian malting barley.
Germination of Gairdner and Sloop increased at low moisture content (mc) at storage temperatures above
20oC, as water sensitivity progressively broke down. In contrast, Grimmett germination declined under
similar conditions. Stirling was very robust and maintained its germination even under high temperature
storage, while Tallon had to be stored below 25°C to prevent loss in barley quality. Samples with high water
sensitivity and dormancy were less vulnerable to germination loss. Dormancy and water sensitivity could be
overcome by matching storage conditions and barley characteristics. Gairdner, Sloop and Stirling, all
samples with some level of dormancy and water sensitivity, showed improved maltability after storage,
while Tallon and Grimmett, samples with high pre-storage germination, decreased in maltability under most
storage conditions. Longer term storage under mild conditions generally resulted in better malting outcomes.
Storage affected Kohlbach index, wort b-glucan, diastatic power and apparent attenuation limit of malt.
Changes in germination and maltability need to be considered in combination to develop optimum storage
strategies for breaking dormancy and water sensitivity. In dormant grain, enzyme activity of a-amylase and
b-glucanase changed with storage, while b-amylase measurements showed no clear trends. Enzyme activity
decreased at higher mc and temperatures concurrent with germination loss. Changes in enzyme activity were
highly sample-dependent.
An understanding of the vulnerability of particular cultivars to damage in storage will assist in increasing and
preserving value. Barley with pronounced levels of dormancy and/or water sensitivity can be safely stored at
25° to 30°C for short periods to increase germination. Care must be taken to monitor germination during
storage, and moisture content should be kept at or below 12%. Dormant barley stored at low temperatures
may not reach malting quality, even over a 12 month period.
Key Words: Storage, germination, malting, amylase, glucanase, dormancy, water sensitivity
