Method for the production of a polyphenolic composition from barley malt, including the fundamental steps of: grinding of the malt grains and splitting into two portions, 20% and 80%; mixing each of the two portions with water to obtain an A mixture and a B mixture, the A mixture being prepared with the 20% portion to obtain a mixture of the malt in water at a final concentration between 9.5% and 20%, the B mixture being prepared with the 80% portion to obtain a mixture of the malt in water at a final concentration between 33% and 60%; thermal cycle; separation of the liquid component from the solid component; boiling of the liquid component and the addition of hops; rapid cooling of the wort; storage; in which said thermal cycle consists of a first phase and a second phase, in which the first phase applies to the 20% portion (Mixture A) and the second phase during which Mixture B is added to Mixture A. The relative polyphenolic composition obtained according to this method is characterized by the fact that it can be in liquid, powder, dry, and lyophilized form, its use and relative beverage or beer according to the present method not obtained with fermentation methods.

The present invention relates to methods of producing a food or malt-base 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 low levels of hordeins. Also provided are barley plants which produce grain that can be used in the methods of the invention.

The present disclosure discloses a method for screening malt for brewing red beer, and belongs to the field of beer brewing. The method takes different kinds of malt samples as examples, and after whole malt mashing and dilution, mashed wort is diluted with water to a chroma value of 50-80 EBC; and when the red intensity of the mashed wort having a chromatic value of 50-80 EBC is 0.209-0.289, the measured malt can be fermented and brewed into red beer. The method can screen malt for red beer brewing simply and quickly, is of important practical significance for guiding the production of red beer, and lays an important foundation for further brewing red beer with different malt.

A process of producing black malt. In the process, a batch of malted grain is steeped in water such that, after steeping, the malted grain has a first moisture content. The batch of malted grain is microwaved such that, after microwaving, the first moisture content is reduced to a second moisture content. Further, in the process, the batch of malted grain is dried at a temperature of from 150? C. to 200? C. for a time period sufficient to produce the batch of black malt. The batch of black malt has a third moisture content that less than the second moisture content.

According to the invention, there is provided null-LOX-1 barley and plant products produced thereof, such as malt manufactured by using barley kernels defective in synthesis of the fatty acid-converting enzyme lipoxygenase-1. Said enzyme accounts for the principal activity related to conversion of linoleic acid into 9-hydroperoxy octadecadienoic acid, a lipoxygenase pathway metabolite, whichthrough further enzymatic or spontaneous reactionsmay lead to the appearance of trans-2-nonenal. The invention enables brewers to produce a beer devoid of detectable trans-2-nonenal-specific off-flavors, even after prolonged storage of the beverage.
