Abstract

The effect of replacing malt (grist) with graded levels of (0, 25, 50, 70 and 100 percent maize (grit) and supplementation with 0.0 or 0.5 mg/l thiamine or 0.0 or 5.0 mg/l manganese for mashing and wort production was monitored by the disappearance of glucose from the fermenting liquor over 12 hours. Results obtained indicated that only 25 percent of malt grist could be replaced by maize grit when the wort had no vitamin and mineral supplements. Supplementation of' the wort with either thiamine or manganese or both combined increased the replacement level to 75 percent.
