A wonderfully fragrant culture on different grain products. By the way, barley miso (also called mugi miso) is also one of our favourite misos. It ferments for 4-12 months.<\/p>\n<p>As the name says, it is best suited to barley, which is a more difficult substrate (for the fungus) than rice. So this strain has been bred to grow easily on pearl barley. If you have grain directly from a farmer, as we do, it can easily be crushed in a food processor or with the household mill on coarse, as we use.<br \/>\nThe amylolytic and proteolytic power are both at the same level.<\/p>\n<p>If you were to ask us which strain to buy if you only want to buy one &#8211; I would say either this one or rice koji, depending on which miso you like better or how long you want them to ferment.<\/p>\n<p>Easy to dose. Choose between bag sizes: contains 25 g, which is enough for 5 kg of cooked substrate, or contains 100 g, which is enough for 20 kg of cooked substrate. The culture contains koji spores and rice flour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Koji spores for barley are best suited to barley or grain<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":30245,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[210,257,207,253],"product_tag":[328,302],"class_list":["post-30244","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-equipment","product_cat-koji","product_cat-miso-koji-and-tamari","product_cat-starter-cultures","product_tag-koji","product_tag-spore","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/30244","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=30244"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=30244"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.njordstorp.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=30244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
