Barley is a main food source, along with rice, in our dietary life that is easy to buy and process. It is required to develop a beverage base and barley syrup for desserts in order to raise utilization of barley beyond its present use in Sikhye (sweet fermented rice drink) and Jocheong (grain syrup) production. In pursuit of the goal to increase the usability of barley as an ingredient of processed food, this study examined the optimal preparation conditions of barley mash for barley syrup. In addition, the study prepared a barley syrup using saccharified barley liquid, analyzed quality characteristics, and conducted a sensory evaluation. Saccharified barley liquid(barley mash) was prepared with ratios of adding malt of unhulled barley germinated as 0 g(CON), 10 g(BM10), 20 g(BM20), and 30 g(BM30). The results of measuring pH under the varied conditions of saccharification temperatures from $50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, and $70^{\circ}C$, as well as time from 1 to 8 hours, treveal that the optimum condition for malt saccharification is $60^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. By adding oligosaccharides and lemon juice to the saccharified barley liquid at the different ratios of added malt, this study measured quality characteristics(color value, viscosity, pH, sweetness) of barley syrup warmed up for 1 hour. As the result of measuring color in the barley syrup prepared by saccharified barley liquid, higher levels of added malt saw L-value decreased while a-value and b-value both increased. BMs30 showed the highest viscosity of $1,202.67{\pm}3.06$. As for pH, BMs30 was the highest at pH $3.57{\pm}0.02$. The result of the sensory evaluation of barley syrup showed the superior sensory characteristics of BMs20 in terms of color, flavor, sweetness, viscosity and overall quality.

An enzymatically saccharified tapioca and hulled barley (TB) raw mixed solution was used to examine alcohol fermentation characteristics. The TB mixture was liquefied with 0.04% ${\alpha}-amylase$ "Spezyme-Fred" and saccharified using an enzyme mixture (GPB), which consisted of glucoamylase (G), protease (P), and ${\beta}-glucanase$ (B). After the TB mixture (7:3, w/w) saccharified for 150 min at $50^{\circ}C$, its glucose content was 12.9% and viscosity was 26 cp. The use of GPB for the saccharification of TB was appropriate because the addition of ${\beta}-glucanase$ increases the glucose yield and decreases the viscosity of the saccharification liquid. The TB ratio was optimized to 7:3 (w/w) on the basis of the lower viscosity and the higher glucose content after saccharification. After TB mixture with 300% (w/w) water content was better condition than others for alcohol fermentation when it was carried out at $30^{\circ}C$. The alcohol and glucose contents of the TB mixture fermented for 72 h were 9.0 and 0.02%, respectively, and the pH and total acidity were 4.3 and 0.3%, respectively.
