Absolutely marvelous. It was spent grain from an oatmeal stout, and the bread was a lovely dark rye color, and moist and flavorful. I was initially worried that it would be bitter, which is my experience of how beer tastes (this is why I don't drink it!) but it wasn't at all.

I am insisting that Wilson keep on brewing. I don't care if he gets the biggest beer belly this side of the Mississippi, I must have spent grains!

If any of you have access to a microbrewery or have a source, grab it!

I'll try to get pix later, right now I gotta go paint a garage.

I thought Reinhart's spent grain bread was the best whole grain style bread I ever ate so I am 100% with you! I really need to find a reliable source. I would hate to have to take up beer brewing just for the spent grain, but...

Thanks for reminding me. Haven't done spent grain in about a year. Gotta find some...

I'm thinking that maybe I'll pan the bread next time to see what happens. I can't wait until Wilson makes his Belgian Abbey Ale to see what that grain does!

Here they are:

Hi,

I just ran across this thread and being a homebrewer and homebaker find the concept of merging the two perfect. Can you give me any more info on how you use the spent grain in your bread?

TIA,
