The evaluation of cracking of malt according to Hartong number.Peer-reviewed article

I. HLAVÁČEK, V. KALENDA

The authors inform about the Hartong's method of quadruple mash process, which was recently simplified by means of change of temperature and lowering the speed of rotation of mixing machine. Thus the method can be used in any laboratory work. According to the results of two groups of experiments (the results are arranged in tables) the authors conclude, that the Hartong number of Czechoslovakian malt is rather above the standard figures due to the fact, that the extract content at 65 and80°Cis relatively high. The relatively small differences in the Hartong number and content of extract acknowledge the fact, that the malt made from Czechoslovakian raw materials is mostly of very good quality.
