Rice hulls

The rice husks are the external hard protecting coverings of grains of rice. The husk protects the seed during the growing season, since it is formed from hard materials, including opaline silica and lignin. This product is obtained through a process called “dehulling”, during this process, the hulls are removed from the raw rice grain to reveal whole brown rice, which may then sometimes be milled further to remove the bran layer, resulting in white rice.



The rice husk undergoes a further processing: the steam-sterilization.



Rice hulls are to be in used in conjunction with the presence of wheat, oats or other coarse grains in the mash. In some instances, the filter bed can become blocked which will result in a more difficult lautering process. The addition of rice hulls can provide an extra filter to the mash. Essentially adding an extra husk to your grain bill, without any additional flavours or aromas.
