How a British Factory Turns Bread into Beer
In this episode, Lucas and Luna visit a bakery-waste distillery in Manchester, UK, that takes unsold sandwich bread from supermarkets and ferments it into craft gin and vodka. They trace the full supply chain: 10,000 loaves a day diverted from landfill, the enzymatic conversion process, and the 40 percent carbon savings compared to grain-based spirits. The conversation covers the economics of food waste valorisation, the role of contracts with major grocers, and whether this model scales beyond the UK.
