Help Please - Enviro Friendly Brewing

JerCraigs · Post by **JerCraigs** » Mon Jul 07, 2003 2:18 pm

I am starting to gather some research for a paper on environmentally friendly brewing practices. Can anyone provide some suggestions for items, websites, books, articles etc.? Any help would be appreciated.

Some of the things i want to mention so far:
- It is fairly common practice for spent grain to be used by farmers.
- Labatt's in London was using a cogenerator to provide both heat and electricity efficiently
- Steamwhistle uses a cooling system which draws cool water from lake Ontario.
- a number of other breweries use techniques for reusing the heat from hot waste water, use organic or non-GMO ingredients etc.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Pick up The Organic Beer Guide by Roger Protz. (Not that organic necessarily means environmental.)
