Technology Spotlight:

Brewery by-products & valorization

To render these large quantities of by-products useful, Kontinuum R&D has developed technologies for yeast debittering, inactivation and controlled autolysis. Yeast autolyzates offer an excellent source of nucleic acids, minerals, carbohydrates and soluble dietary fibers, beta-glucans in particular. These developments have been custom-designed for savory flavor-enhancement and nutritional yeast markets. Recognizing the composition of spent grains, we have developed a wide range of customized malted grain- fibers able to contribute natural sweetness, calorie reduction and fiber enrichment to bakery products, snacks, protein bars, and RTE cereals.

About Us

Kontinuum R&D is an upcycling initiative recognizing the economic dependency of food manufacturers by focusing and limiting their profitability solely in maximizing primary product yields (typically the basis in forecasting Profit & Loss statements) while undervaluing their by-product contribution. This well-hidden economic impact may be the “dingy” needed to achieve overall sustainability while providing market-protection via primary-product price adjustments through proper by-product credit valuation.
