After you have cooked the barley, you must cool any leftovers to room temperature, usually while you eat. Then place the leftovers into the refrigerator UNCOVERED for 10-15 minutes, preferably spead flat on a plate, in order to cool it off quickly. After it has cooled to fridge temperature, you may pack it into tupperware. Be sure to place some plastic wrap to the top of the barley to minimize air contact, which will dry out the topmost barley. Place it back in the fridge.
After following these instructions for storage, the barley will last 3-5 days, depending on the internal temperature of the refrigerator.
I've had some cooked hulled barley in the refrigerator for about 12 days. It has grown a bit slimy and has a slightly fermented taste to it, but I've been eating it with no problem. The slimy texture reminds me of natto, the fermented soybeans that are eaten in Japan and have many health benefits. Given that barley is such a good food to begin with and that fermented foods are generally so healthy, I've been willing to eat this despite the (to my palate) suboptimal taste and texture.
