    As modern studies show, the actual length of a kernel of barley varies from as short as 0.16–0.28 in (4–7 mm) to as long as 0.47–0.59 in (12–15 mm) depending on the cultivar. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Older sources claimed the average length of a grain of barley was 0.345 in (8.8 mm), while that of a grain of " big " was 0.3245 in (8.24 mm).

    The real barley and wheat grains are currently in the range of metric grain, i. e. 50 mg, and at the time of establishment of grain-based standard weighed even less - ca. 45 mg. There are almost no variety of grain (except for some experimental hybrids) that would demonstrate such high weight as 64,8 mg, so it is SURELY not the real barley ...

    The conversion rate of grains to ethanol and distillers grains varies with the different types of grains and the process used. The details are outlined below: The conversion rate of maize to distillers grains is: One tonne of maize produces 378 L of ethanol and 479 kg WDG (70% moisture content), or 309 kg of DDGS (10% moisture content).
