Uses for the spent malt
A stick of butter is a half cup or 8 Tablespoons, so that would be 1/4 cup or 4 tablespoons and bullion cubes are like chicken or beef stock ...dry concentrated.....1 cube dissolved in 1 cup of water would be like 1 cup of stock.....but you need 3 cubes in 2/3 cup of water (concentrated for flavoring)
Dog treats
Don't put spent hops in these dog bickies though. There have been several reports of dogs snuffing it after eating discarded hops from homebrewers. They are toxic to some breeds of dogs, greyhounds in particular, but some other breeds are susceptible as well. There is some information on the Nerdosphere. Search for "Hop toxicity dogs"
