Note: The entry point in the barley for the water is also called a "micropyle". For more videos on Scotch Whisky Production: ru-vid.com/group/PLFE4H6ZO6VFYmerOQT0wQDzr2biLIFXEV

Great stuff 🥃! This video help me study for my EWA diploma and keep expanding knowledge.Thank you!

more videos like these please

Thanks for sharing your knowledge on barley. I have used both Golden Promise & 2 Row while homebrewing.

Great stuff Erik. Glad to see you back!

Fascinating stuff indeed! Thank you Erik 👍

This is super information and an enjoyable video.

Just Excellent! Thank you!

"Flavouristics" is a keeper, Erik.😉👍 Excellent, clear explanation.

Hi Erik, valuable information for nerds like me, straight to the "re-watch" list. Thanks for another excellent video. As for the impact of barley on flavor and following Reinyer's lead, Dr. Dustin Herb (O.S.U.) is headed up research on the subject. Also at the Westland distillery in Seattle, they are experimenting with different varieties focused on expanding the range of aromas and flavors in whiskey, in case you want to dive into it. Cheers

Top notch content, thanks Erik! Looking forward to watching the rest of the series (already on my Watch later list of course). Cheers! 🥃

❤ wow! Fantastic video and clear explanation. 1000 Thx Erik! 🥃

Excellent video and explanation. Well done and well presented! I would say that doing a head to head between Port Charlotte 10 and PC Islay Barley might give one a good idea as to the differences that barley can have.

Copperworks Whiskey in Seattle is sort of experimenting with different Barley varieties, one is Alba. They are using 90% Washington grown Barley and wanting to use Salmon Safe Certified. Salmon Safe Cert comes from dry farming.

Superb content brother 🎉

Interesting to hear the word “destoners” …I work in a oat plant in Canada with 3 destoners that constantly need adjusting because of incoming grain temp and moisture levels, size, incoming air temp, humidity levels, outside air temp etc

In ancient times "wine" meant alcohol. It could be spirit, beer whatever. Word Winemaking could be referred to distilling

Erik, What are your feelings on Barley Terroir? I personally believe distillation, as opposed to fermentation in wine making, is far too violent to allow any nuances to translate into the spirit.
