There are two general types of barley flour: coarse and fine.[3] Barley groats are milled to make coarse barley flour, and pearl barley is milled to make fine barley flour.[3]
Additionally, patent barley flour is a finer barley flour that is ground to a greater degree compared to fine barley flour.
