1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons fast rise yeast or 3 teaspoons active dry yeast

Steps:

  • Add everything to the Bread machine, in the order listed. (If your grain is particularly wet, you may need to add more flour.).

SPENT GRAIN BEER BREAD



Spent Grain Beer Bread image

I am a homebrewer and brew all grain beer. As a byproduct of mashing 10+ lbs. of grain to make wort for beer, you have 10+ lbs. of grain to use. I hate to dispose of anything, especially food, I wanted to find a good way to use this leftover grain. I use some of the grain for this bread recipe and put the rest into compost for my outdoor plants. Really there is no true combination of grain, I just use whatever I used to brew beer with. It all gets mixed together during the mash so it is never the same blend, but that keeps it interesting!

  • Use fresh spent grain: Fresh spent grain is easier to work with and will produce a better-flavored bread.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will result in a tough, dense loaf of bread.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: A warm place will help the dough rise quickly and evenly.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature: A high temperature will create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
