Did you know that barley is one of the oldest grains in the world? It was cultivated 15,000 years ago in the Middle East and the Balkans – and to this day it is a real power grain. Along with wheat, it is one of the most important grains and is now grown throughout Europe and Asia.
Not all barley is the same: there are two-row and multi-row varieties. Spring barley is particularly well-known because it develops a full, starchy grain at each starting point. It is precisely these properties that make it the ideal brewing barley for beer. But it's not just brewers who love barley – it's also found in barley, flour and our Kölln products.
Kölln uses 100 % German organic barley
In our Kölln organic products, we use barley from German organic farming.
Barley provides a natural mildness and creaminess that is perfect for delicate porridges and nutritious meals. Whether in the form of flakes, flour or malt, barley is full of tradition and flavour.
