Pearl Barley
Pearl barley is barley grains that have been hulled and polished to remove the outer bran layer, resulting in smooth, oval grains suitable for soups and stews. It falls under HTS 1104.29.10.00 as worked barley grains (pearled) that do not meet the milling criteria for Chapter 11 headings 1101-1103 due to insufficient starch or sieve passage percentages per chapter notes. This classification applies to barley processed beyond simple hulling but not finely fragmented into groats or meal.
Hulled Barley Grains
Hulled barley is whole barley kernels with only the inedible outer hull removed, retaining bran and germ for nutritious whole-grain use in salads or baking. Classified in HTS 1104.29.10.00 as 'other worked grains' of barley, distinct from milled products in 1101-1103 that meet starch/ash/sieve thresholds in chapter notes. This covers basic hulling without pearling or fragmentation.
Rolled Barley Flakes
Rolled barley flakes are hulled barley grains steamed and flattened into flakes for quick-cooking porridge or granola. HTS 1104.29.10.00 covers this as 'rolled' worked barley not qualifying as germ (1104 other sub) or milled products under chapter starch/ash rules. The rolling process 'works' the grain without fine grinding.
Kibbled Barley
Kibbled barley consists of hulled barley coarsely chopped or cracked into small pieces for animal feed or brewing. It qualifies under HTS 1104.29.10.00 as 'kibbled' (sliced/chopped) worked barley grains, excluded from 1103 groats only if not meeting the 95% 1.25mm sieve passage per chapter notes.
Flaked Barley Grains
Flaked barley grains are hulled barley rolled and heated to produce thin flakes ideal for beer mashing in brewing. Classified in HTS 1104.29.10.00 as 'flaked' other worked barley, as the process doesn't qualify it as milled flour under chapter note sieve/starch criteria.
Sliced Barley for Feed
Sliced barley is hulled barley cut into thin slices primarily for livestock feed, improving digestibility. HTS 1104.29.10.00 applies to this 'sliced' worked barley form not fragmented finely enough for 1103 meal per chapter sieve definitions.
