Slater Farms – Rice Hulls

Description

Rice hulls are most often used during the production of beers with high percentages of nonbarley cereal-grain adjuncts such as wheat or rye. These grains have higher levels of protein and beta-glucan compared with barley and lack the husks that create needed porosity in a mash bed.

Adding between 1% and 5% of total grist weight in rice hulls directly to the mash helps ensure better wort runoff and greater wort clarity.
