  • Another FDA food control move.

    This isn't just a big deal for brewers-but another aspect of fda laws getting in the way of food production-the spent grains are sold to ranchers and if this stops, fodder costs can be prohibitive. Why stop this practice that's beneficial to brewers and cattlemen? Esp when there hasn't been one case of any illness in man nor beast because of the practice. Another way to control.




    The FDA says the rules stem from a new, broad modernization of the food safety system.

    also:

    Santa Rosa rancher Jim Cunningham gets about 10 tons of used grain from the Lagunitas Brewery every day at about $100 per ton.

    With drought and other factors pushing commercial feed prices more than three times higher than the brewery grain, he says the new rules would affect his bottom line.

    "It might put us out of business if we couldn't get cheaper feed," Cunningham said.
