    My biggest shock from the report is how beer sales are falling. I’m assuming consumption is just down for health reasons?

    I’m drinking way less than I used to because I can’t afford it anymore (kids are expensive!)

    Making protein from waste just makes sense, love to see industry developments like this :)

    P.S. Oyster mushrooms rock

      Yeah also generally young people dont like the toxic self-harming alcohol culture. And women become way more emancipated, and tend to drink less.

      Alcohol really sucks as a drug so I am really happy about that.

      Störtebeker makes some really nice alcohol free beer, I like “Atlantik” which tastes very strongly of hop.

        Even in low doses it sucks! I would occasionally have a beer with meals, but I noticed that even if done very occasionally, a single beer would make it very difficult for me to sleep, which would leave me exhausted the next day. Eventually I just said screw it and stopped buying it, wasn’t worth it the slight relaxation it could bring.

    I can buy such yeast flocs since a long time already in the local supermarkets. I always assumed this was a creative way to get rid of beer brewing waste.

      Yeast flakes? The yellow stuff? That is very different and not a byproduct of beer production.

      This is about residue after the carbohydrates in grains were converted into alcohol or whatever and the protein is left

      Like weird seitan lol
