Groundup eco-ventures Ltd – Canadians use over 200,000 tonnes of coffee & over 250,000 tonnes of barley every year. Much of this waste ends up in landfills, creating tonnes of waste & greenhouse gas emissions. Upcycling not only prevents that, it also encourages us to give ingredients a second chance. After being used for coffee or in the brewing process, our grounds & grains still have so much to give. That’s where upcycling comes in.
Upcycling is taking something that is considered waste and re-purposing it. As opposed to recycling, in upcycling, those materials are used to create a product of higher quality or value. Coffee grounds & brewer’s grains are used to brew coffee and craft beer, Grounds & grains are milled into a finer flour consistency. The result is our Gluten-Free Coffee Flour, 100% Brewer’s Barley Saved-Grain Flour, & our cosmetic Coffee Oil.
