How long to steam hulled barley?
If it takes two hours to steam pot barley, how long to steam whole grain barley (hulls off)?
I soaked the barley for about 4 hours, then put it to steam in a two level steamer. I'm switching the top and bottom (so that the top is on the bottom, the bottom on the top) every hour or there abouts. It's been two hours so far... I'm guessing 4 to 5 hours total or is this way too much?

Next time I'll go for four hours or more.
