  The baryon asymmetry of the universe may originate in the phase transition at
the end of hybrid inflation, provided that the reheat temperature is low
enough. I show that if the field that triggers the end of inflation is the
electroweak Higgs field and CP is violated, the transition leads to baryon
asymmetry even if no preheating or non-thermal symmetry restoration takes
place. I estimate the strength of this effect and the constraints it imposes on
the inflationary model.
