Bryan Daniels turned brewery spent grain into a granola bar brand, runs the whole operation himself, and has been building something on the side his entire career.
Bryan joins Mike for a candid conversation about turning food waste into product, the 15+ years in corporate IT he spent with a side hustle always running (DJ, soccer coach, personal trainer), opening and closing a cafe, and why compostable packaging is back on his roadmap. He walks through how a homebrew hobby led him to bake grain scraps in his oven, how coworkers became his first paying customers via a jar on his desk, and what closing All Good Cafe taught him about running a small business.
