I have been living and brewing in my condo for a couple years and unfortunately don't have the the option for composing my spent grain. Dog treats have been by far my best option. Couple cool additions for any all grain brewers, where 4 cups barely make a small dent in your remaining spent grains. <br /><br />Often I do not have the time to make treats even a day or two after brewing. Therefore I dehydrate my spent grains and package them for storage. It very easy, spread the grain in a thin layer onto several cookie sheets and pop in the oven @ 225 for +2 hr or until fully dried. <br /><br />Then before baking the dog treats, it's best to rehydrate the grain that the treat are a bit softer in order to break into small pieces (that is if you have a smaller doggie), else don't worry. Put the grains (4 cups) in the bowl, covered with water for 15 min. <br /><br />Now that the grains are dehydrated, you also have the option to mill your spent grains into flour and use this flour in place to store bought flours. Very easy to do if you have a magic bullet or ninja.<br /><br />Enjoy your spent grain dog treats. I know Mukashi does!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10868436128961050434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557891584261110923.post-52258677200471785862014-02-03T18:56:00.626-05:002014-02-03T18:56:00.626-05:00brew day was yesterday at our house and today was ...brew day was yesterday at our house and today was a snow day so I made your recipe - hellz yeah! our dogs LOVE them. the real test is charley who is quite discerning....he took his and ran onto the dog bed so he could eat in privacy. even zoe slowed down to chew! this will be a new ritual for us. thanks for the great and healthy recipe!<br /><br />also a note to others: we grind our own like many others and there's nothing in there that can get the dogs sick.....the hops are typically added after the mash (which makes the wort) - after the mash is taken out, the hops are added.

With that said if you read through the comments there is a back and forth debate on whether or not spent grains are even good for dogs. We have friends that brew and we wanted to give it a try. The treats were easy and fit in with our motto of minimizing waste. Normally the spent grains would get tossed out or hopefully be composted. Our dog loved them and we gave them to him in moderation with no issues! You might search your area for a local home brew club and get in touch with them for spent grains. Good Luck and thanks for stopping by!17aparthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18176955042705963326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557891584261110923.post-74341231880878842102014-01-11T13:40:08.852-05:002014-01-11T13:40:08.852-05:00Hi.

But what I wanted to ask you is if there is any specific health benefit to using the grains. Do they have any additional nutritional value? I'm really trying to bake using more traditional, healthful methods, for my family AND my dog.
