Used Grains from Brewing

Now that we've been state approved, one more inspection remaining (tomorrow), the brewing activities will be picking up and coupled with additional fermenters, will be increasing from one batch every couple weeks to a few batches per week within the next 2-3 months. With this, at ~150 lbs of used grain per batch, raises the problem of what to do with the all the used grain.

As the used grain still contains some sugar, proteins, and other nutrients, it can be used in a wide variety of applications, some of which include:

• Feed for farm animals, most will eagerly devour the beer making by-product.
• For various human food items, such as bread, graham crackers, waffles, cookies, crackers, pie crusts, and many more.
• Using as compost to fertilize fields, gardens, and urban greenhouses.

If interested, feel free to stop by Loony's Brew any time to discuss and if so inclined, bring a 5 gallon bucket or other container to bring some home and test it out. If all goes well, we can work out arrangements so you're notified via email whenever a new batch is ready, picking it up as fresh as possible.

Cheers,
