Import Tips
• Document the production process to show the powder is a direct by-product of brewing and not a prepared food
• Be prepared to demonstrate that the yeast is dead and inactive with lab testing
• Check if the adjunct residues exceed a de minimis level that might suggest classification as animal feed under Chapter 23
