Partial discharge instead of isolated

Most protein powders on the shelf are isolates. The raw material is technically broken down, the protein is extracted and concentrated to 80 to 90 percent. Everything else – minerals, fiber, residual fats – remains in the process.

Our two powders are made differently. The kernels or seeds are mechanically pressed to extract the oil. What remains is the press cake: the protein of the seed and everything that was naturally included. This press cake is ground – without roasting, without refining, without additional heat treatment. The powder is ready.

Honestly, an isolate is not bad because of this: If you want the maximum amount of protein per gram with as few calories as possible, you are better off with it. We are interested in something else – a powder with a single ingredient, where magnesium, iron, and zinc are still where the plant put them.

What a serving costs

One can contains 350 grams and costs CHF 12.90. With a serving size of 25 grams – which is two to three tablespoons – it lasts for approximately 14 servings. That makes 92 rappen per serving, for 16 grams of protein in the pumpkin seed and 12.5 grams in the hemp.

Or simply both

Both varieties Protein Duo – Pumpkin Seed & Hemp

One can each of pumpkin seed and hemp protein, 700 grams total. For those who don't want to choose – or who need both: the mild pumpkin seed for baking and shakes, the stronger hemp for smoothies and soups. That's 82 cents per serving instead of 92.

Application

What is suitable for what

Two powders, four everyday situations.

Both powders can be stirred in cold and are heat-stable enough for baking.

In the shake
25 grams of powder per approx. 250 ml of liquid. Pumpkin seed protein has a subtle flavor and goes well with milk, oat drink, or water. Hemp protein is more robust and pairs better with banana, cocoa, or a green smoothie. A shaker helps, as we don't use anti-caking agents.
When baking
Pumpkin seed protein can replace about 10 to 20 percent of the flour quantity, hemp protein about 10 to 15 percent. Both bind significantly more liquid than flour – so slightly increase the amount of liquid in the dough accordingly. Works well in bread, crackers, and bars.
In muesli and bowls
One to two tablespoons over porridge, yogurt, or a bowl. Pumpkin seed protein is the more subtle option here, while hemp protein adds its own nutty-green note and provides a higher fiber content with 21 grams of fiber per 100 grams.
In savory dishes
Both powders work well in soups, dips, and pesto. Do not cook them; stir them in at the end. Hemp protein's flavor pairs particularly well with pumpkin, pea, and herb soups.

Frequently Asked Questions about Pumpkin Seed and Hemp Protein

Pumpkin seed protein if you want a higher protein content and are looking for a powder with a subtle taste. Hemp protein if fiber is important to you and you like a stronger, nutty-green taste. Many people alternate between the two – the price is the same for both.

The kernels or seeds are mechanically pressed to extract the oil. The press cake that remains is ground – that is the powder. Some of the fat remains in it, as do the minerals and fiber from the seeds. In contrast, with an isolate, the protein is technically extracted, and everything else is separated.

It is a foodstuff, not a metered preparation. Two to three tablespoons daily are common, which is about 20 to 30 grams. A can therefore lasts about two weeks.

For hemp protein, the manufacturer recommends a maximum of 10 grams per day for children under nine years of age. For pumpkin seed protein, there is no separate restriction. If in doubt, please discuss consumption with your pediatrician.

Pumpkin seeds and hemp seeds are naturally gluten-free. With the hemp protein, however, the manufacturer points out that traces of gluten may be present because gluten-containing raw materials are processed in the same facility. If you suffer from celiac disease, please contact us before your first purchase – or choose pumpkin seed protein if in doubt.

Only the seeds of the useful hemp plant are used, not the flowers or leaves. The powder is a foodstuff and not a cannabinoid product. If you have any questions, please contact us.

Pumpkin seed protein tastes mild and delicately nutty and remains subtly in the background in recipes. Hemp protein is stronger, nuttier, and has a slightly green, herbaceous note. Those trying plant-based protein for the first time usually start with pumpkin seed.

From controlled organic cultivation in Austria, processed in an Austrian organic facility. The powders are bottled in Switzerland. Kraftgras is located in St. Gallen.
