Malting Barley

Today I found some barley in Wholefoods, that apparently hasn't been pearled or mucked about with. It's even organic! So I'm going to see if I can malt it. I got a pound of barley and a pound of soft wheat berries.

Both have been washed, and are soaking for 8 hours.

At the end of this soak, I drained the grain and let stand for another 8 hours (overnight). There are already signs of germinatation in both the wheat and the barley - a small bulge on one end of the grain.
