Methods are described for increasing the concentration of one or more bio-actives in grains, and in some instances, the specific bio actives gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) and/or Avenanthramide (AVA). The increased concentration of the one or more bio-actives is greater than the concentration of the bio-actives in the naturally occurring grains. Compositions that include grains having an increased concentration of one or more bio-actives are described. Methods for promoting health functions such as one or more of reducing oxidative stress, flow mediated dilation (FMD), reducing blood pressure, reducing risk of developing hypertension, improving blood vessel function, improving endothelial function, improving sleep and/or relaxation by providing the compositions are described.

The present invention relates to methods of producing a food or malt-based beverage suitable for consumption by a subject with Coeliac's disease. In particular, the present invention relates to methods of producing a food or malt-based beverage with very low levels of hordeins. Also provided are barley plants which produce grain that can be used in the methods of the invention.

The invention relates to a method of preparing a wort from cereals, comprising the steps of: providing a grist comprising non-malted cereals; preparing a mixture by contacting the grist with water and with an alpha-amylase, a protease and a filtration aid enzyme, to yield a mash after incubation; incubating said mixture at 45-55 C. for a period of 10-30 minutes, at 60-70 C. for a period of 20-40 minutes and at 80-90 C. for a period of 5-15 minutes; filtering the mash to obtain a liquid wort; and collecting the wort.

An encapsulation method is disclosed for the capture of natural flavors within a clean-label derived from a malt comprising at least partially germinated whole grain seed, pulses, legumes, false grains or flour derived therefrom. Moreover, a spray dryable malted rice composition is disclosed that has rice present at an amount that is at least about 30% by weight.
