In Reply to: Wet Brewers Grains posted by NW Ohio Tim on January 17, 2011 at 20:45:01:
I buy brewers grains from a local micro-brewery. Each batch they do only yields about 2500lbs of wet grain. They put it in blue plastic 55gal drums and load them in my pickup with a forklift. I feed it right out of the truck over the next 2 to 3 days. If it's below 0F, it starts to freeze to the outside of the barrels after 24 hours, so I try to feed it out as fast as possible. I've always been able to knock the frozen layer out by hitting the barrel with a bar. In the summer time it rots quickly so I try to feed it out fast then too.
I keep looking for a better way to haul and feed it out (like something than involves an auger), but sometimes keeping it simple is better, I guess.
Anyway, it's great feed supplement for cattle. High protein and good calcium. My cattle would walk over a pile of ground corn to get to some. I keep a couple of hogs for meat, and have tried to feed it to them, but they didn't even want to touch it. My chickens don't seem to go for it either.
