   My father in law came to me today:

   "Hey, I have some barley and wheat growing in the old chicken garden. Can we malt that?"

   I have to get some literature to answer that question. But does anyone of you folks have an idea about that?

   It looks like 2-row barley so technically if we figure out how to do it we should be able to make malt with that.

     @brudibrau It's not a simple process from what I've read about.

     @morph Very labor-intensive, yeah. But then again, I already grow my own hops and use decoction mash and open fermentation, so what's one terribly time-consuming step on top of that? 😆
