Cultivated meat is one of the great hopes to reduce polluting emissions linked to livestock production and provide new food and conscious nutrition options. Now, scientists have found that leftover yeast from brewing can be transformed into edible "andamios" for cultivated meat, offering a more sustainable and cost-effective alternative to current methods.

Beer yeast waste could provide scaffold for cultivated meat production
Berlin, Germany (SPX) Jan 06, 2026 Researchers at University College London report that spent yeast from beer brewing can be converted into edible bacterial cellulose scaffolds for cultivated meat, offering a potential route to lower-cost production of cell-based meat. The study in Frontiers in Nutrition examines how bacterial cellulose grown from brewer's spent yeast can serve as a structure on which animal cells are cultu
