14. This grain is the majour grain used in
the brewing process.
It usually is imported from Holland
and collected at the seaports in Lagos.
Transported in large mobile silo
trucks.
It is brought over to Ibadan silo house
to be stored in the silos for continuous
availability.
15. Sorghum is that popular grain used in Nigeria
(Okababa in Yoruba) often white or red for making
pap and feeding birds especially pigeons.
At Nigerian breweries the main type of sorghum
used is the white sorghum because we don’t want
the grain colour to affect the colour of our output as
fermentation doesn’t change the extract colour.
Sorghum is rich in essential carbohydrates and
vitamins.
Malted sorghum is more costly than raw sorghum
because of the cost of malting and transporting of
malted grains.
