What is brewer’s grain?
Beer is brewed with grain. With barley mainly. Did you know beer brewers do not use the entire grain kernel to brew their beer though? They extract the sugars and starches, discarding the proteins and fibres also present in the grain.
This results in a massive residue stream we call brewer’s grain. A tasty stream full of fibres, plant-based protein and essential amino acids.
Through our highly controlled process, we
upcycle this nutritious stream into tasty, nutritious ingredients for the food industry.
PowerFlour to start with. An ingredient fit to use in food production in many different ways. Think of pastry, hybrid meat and snacks for example.
A second ingredient, optimized in functionality, will be introduced to market soon.
So enjoy your beer while we take care of the rest. Cheers!
