Crushing barley breaks down the grain's outer structure, exposing the starchy endosperm. This mechanical action increases the surface area, allowing enzymes such as amylase to access the starch granules more effectively. As the grains are crushed, the starch is released and can then be converted into fermentable sugars during the mashing process, essential for brewing and distilling.

Does barley oats or wheat give more energy to horses?
In general, oats provide more readily available energy for horses compared to barley and wheat due to their higher starch content. Oats are easily digestible and are often preferred for high-energy needs, especially in performance horses. While barley and wheat also supply energy, they contain more fiber and less starch, which can result in slower energy release. Ultimately, the best choice depends on the individual horse's dietary needs and activity level.
Is barley a disaccharide?
No, barley is not a disaccharide; it is a whole grain. Barley primarily contains starch, which is a polysaccharide made up of many glucose units. Disaccharides, such as sucrose or lactose, consist of two monosaccharide units. Barley can break down into simpler sugars during digestion, but it itself is not classified as a disaccharide.
