A pound of barley typically yields about 0.8 to 0.9 pounds of malt after the malting process, which includes soaking, germination, and drying. The exact yield can vary based on factors like the barley variety and the specific malting process used. Generally, the malting process converts the starches in barley into fermentable sugars, making it suitable for brewing or distilling.

Malted barley is the main ingredient in pretty much all beers, even some gluten free beers use extremely low amounts of refined barley malt extract.
