Ferulic acid is released during mashing, with an optimal mash temperature of 40-45°C (104-113°F), and is generally more efficiently extracted from a combination of 70% barley malt and 30% wheat malt (not raw wheat varieties rather than malted ) despite sudies showing that barley varieties, although there are exceptions to this for some varieties and both grain types can have relatively comparable levels of malt often contains more ferulic acid; maize/corn has significantly higher levels than both barley and wheat malt (see [https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/2053354874692716/ this MTF thread] that reviews some of the literatureexplains why this is) <ref>[https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/jib.189 Enhancing the levels of 4‐vinylguaiacol and 4‐vinylphenol in pilot‐scale top‐fermented wheat beers by response surface methodology.
