A method requiring a minimum labour input is described for measuring hot water extracts of the relatively large numbers of small samples of malt that can be generated in automated micro‐malting equipment. Using malts obtained from 5 g samples of grain of 11 barley cultivars, this method gave essentially the same quality ranking, with almost the same precision, as a more conventional procedure using 10 g of malt from 15 g samples of grain.
