A modified pearling instrument was used to determine the hardness of samples of barley and the results correlated with the extracts achieved by the malts made from those barleys. The influence of variety was such that the procedure could not be applied to selection of progeny from a breeding programme. However, the method could be used to accurately predict the malting potential of samples of varieties of malting barley if the relationship for the particular variety were known.
