Paper

Each time I make a batch of beer (23 litres), I use between 3.5 and 5.5 kilograms of grain. Think how much spent grain a commercial brewery has to deal with. That's a lot of livestock that get fed.

So, Boags have found a way to do something with what is clearly less than their total spent grain output. Not too many cows will go hungry, but I would be interested to understand if it is a more or less effective use than feeding cows and chopping down trees for unsolicited advertising material.

The crowd who made the paper look cool too.
