02 Spent Grain Flour has a delicate aroma of caramel and nuts. The grain composition will give a hint of sweetness and enhance the umami effect of your culinary creations. Your baked goods will have a light brown colour. Spent grain flour is also rich in fibre and protein.

This flour is perfect for sour dough, bread with seeds and kernels or savoury baking like pizza or tortilla and our favourite for Arabic inspired flatbreads because its aroma profile also complements spicy food.

From Beer to Flour

Agrain spent grain flour is a great sustainable addition to your bread and baked goods.

02 Spent grain flour begins as malted barley and wheat, which are mashed in the brewery. During malting and mashing, the grain is broken down, increasing access to nutrients, and some of the sugar is extracted from the grain.

The brewery removes the grain before fermentation.

Sustainable Flour

At Agrain, we develop food products that bring new flavors and possibilities to our daily meals.

We use resources that would otherwise go to waste.

We work together with Danish organic breweries and distilleries to reduce food waste.

Agrain spent grain flour is produced from grains that have already had their first use as a base in the production of beer and whisky. This bag contains spent grain from approximately 12 liters of IPA.

Let’s use that grain Agrain.

How to use

Use Agrain flour as a supplement ingredient together with your preferred flour. To obtain a strong gluten structure, give the dough a little extra time to rise because of the spent grain flour’s low amount of gluten.

Spent grain flour also binds more water than normal flour, so add ca. 10-15 % extra water to your dough depending on the other ingredients. See also our recipes for inspirations and quantities.

Adds great rustic taste to bread, buns and pizza

I have been trying many different types of flours throughout the last years. When I heard about Agrain, it seemed like a very interesting product to try.

My experience with this particular flour is that it adds a lovely rustic dimension to bread. It's important only to use this as a small addition in the dough and not the main ingredient.

I also baked pizza which turned out really well from a taste perspective. It added a rustic slightly earthy taste to the pizza - Which I really liked. I mixed the flour with durum flour with a 90 - 10. The drought was a bit difficult to handle as both durum flour and this flour is not especially elastic. My impression was that the Spent Grain Flour didn't add any elasticity but rather took it away. It's important to take this into account when baking.

Next time I will go for more traditional pizza and be using Manitoba or Tipo 00 to 90 - 95% and then add 5 - 10 % spent grain flour.

I would overall recommend this flour especially to someone who likes it more rustic.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the rustic flavor that Agrain’s Spent Grain Flour adds to your pizza.

We appreciate your feedback about the dough's elasticity, and we’d like to suggest a couple of tips to improve the texture next time. A good tip is to knead the dough a bit more to help develop the gluten. Additionally, we recommend doing a gluten test (the windowpane test) to check the dough’s elasticity. This can help ensure you get the desired structure in your bake.

Thanks again for sharing your experience, and we look forward to hearing about your future creations with Agrain!
