Brown rice and paddy were soaked in water at for 2 days and then germinated at for upto 10 days. The higher the germination temperature, the higher the germination speed, the increase of activity, and the increase of extract amount and its sugar content. The viscosity of extract rapidly decreased first and then slightly increased during germination. The activities of of germinated brown rice and paddy were much smaller than those of germinated barley; however, the extract amount and its sugar content of germinated brown rice and paddy were similar to those of germinated barley. The germinated brown rice can be used for sikhe not as a saccharifying agent but as a substitute for white rice.Read More
