The paper deals with the chemical composition of this secondary stock. The pH value of fresh brewers grains is 6.2; it contains 68 percent water, 4.1 percent ash, 2.75 percent extracts, starch and lipids. It also comprises significant amounts of protein, fibre, and important micro- and macro-elements. Phytic acid content is significantly lower compared to its level in cereals.
