- Grain History
This malt was made from two-row Brewski barley developed by North Dakota State University, in coopera-tion with Arrow K Farms. Arrow K Farms is located in Belfield, ND just a few miles east of Theodore Roose-velt National Park in western ND.
Brewski was developed with craft brewers in mind and provides great efficiency, faster lautering, and a nice plump kernel. Two Track Malting is the exclusive maltster of Brewski barley and Arrow K Farms is the exclusive grower of Brewski barley which results in a truly unique malt that you can’t find anywhere else in the world.
Two Track Malting uses grain grown without irrigation by growers practicing regenerative agriculture. This results in the highest quality grain grown with the least environmental impact.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Technical information
Hot Steep Method
Items Needed to perform the Hot Steep Method:
- 24-ounce Thermos
- Funnel
- Cone Coffee Filter
- Coffee Grinder
- Scale capable of weighing 50.0 g (± 0.1 g)
- Glass Beaker, tall, 600 mL volume
- Thermometer, standard, 0-200°C
- Quart sized large or small mouth canning jars
- Heating apparatus, capable of heating water to 65°C
Steps to perform the Hot Steep Method:
1. Grind 50.0g of malt in coffee grinder (grind of 10-15 sec)
2. Add 400ml of 65°C (149°F) water to Thermos
3. Add grist to water, cap thermos and shake for 20 sec
4. Let rest for 15min
5. When timer is up, swirl for a few seconds then poor everything into filter in funnel over large jar
6. Collect 100ml of wort and add it back into filter
7. Collect and TasteCheck Your Malt Grind
Take 100g of milled grist and Place in #14 Sieve stacked over #30,#60 over pan, Slide 18” on smooth surface for 3 min and Tap sharply on surface ever minute Record Grist retained above in each sieve.
Chart to the below gives Percentage of what should be retained in each sieve for each grind.

PPG (SG of 1 lb of fermentable in 1 gal of water)
PPG=46.214*(DBCG/100-MC%/100-0.002)
Original Gravity Calculation
OG=1+(EF%/100)*(PPG*MW/BV)
MW = pounds of malt used
BV = Batch volume in gallons
EF% = Mashing efficiency
OG = Original Gravity
PPG = Pounds Per Gallon
MC = Moisture Content
DBCG = Course Grind Extract
