So, done my 3rd all grain. Loving it. I want to know what others do with their spent grain? There has to be nutritional value....seems like such a waste to throw it in the trash!
 
Do a search here on HBT...lots of creative ideas. Dog treats, homemade bread, compost, pig feed are a few that come to mind. I make dog treats and compost the rest.
 
Dog treats...bread....pizza crust...

Do a search and you will find lots of great uses for spent grains.
 
If you have dogs ....... dog treats.. My dogs love them.

Bread, pizza dough......

They make great compost for the garden...
 
x5 on the dog treats.
I find I only need to make a full batch of treats every 5 brews, and the rest just gets composted.
 
I usually throw mine in the woods behind my house. I've noticed and increase in fat squirrels hanging around since I've been doing that.
