Problem
The brewing industry generates substantial amounts of brewer's spent grain (BSG) as a byproduct, which is often discarded in landfills or used as animal feed, representing a significant waste stream.

These ingredients offer a sustainable alternative to traditional sources, enhancing the nutritional profile of food and beverage products while simultaneously reducing waste and promoting environmental responsibility.
