I know there's been the odd post in the past when people usually forum outside Europe and America have asked about barley production but It's never got passed a few posts.
I'm thinking about planting enough barley to make malt for 2 gallons of beer. When I get time I'll need to work out via backward calculating how much space and plants I'm going to need. I want to make a gallon of beer with the ingredients I've grown. I'm even considering fining a spring I can take the water from rather than using tap water.
I'm considering compromising on two things because I don't want to risk losing a batch with so much time efffort and energy invested in it.
I may use a sanitiser and will most likeley use a comercial yeast.
If any one has any thoughts or information to input it would be appreciated.
First step is doing some rersearch on growing barley and figuring out how much I need and when it needs to go in the ground.
