To get the best sear on the beef it is probably better to cook the beef in batches until browned. Depending on how much fat the beef releases as it cooks, you may have to add an additional teaspoon or so of oil as you cook.
Skimming the foam and fat from the top is optional but I find that it makes the overall soup less greasy.
When storing the barley tends to absorb some of the liquid as it cools making the leftovers pretty thick. I was able to add a little water to the dish when I was reheating it so that it had more of a soup consistency.
