REJUVELAC
This mildly fermented drink made from 2-3 day old wheat sprouts before they turn into grass is a rich brew of active enzymes and beneficial bacteria. It is an easy method to make a homemade probiotic (lactobacillus, acidophilus, bifidus, etc).

Step 1

Soak 1 cup of seed for 8-10 hours
Drain and dispose of water
Put seed in a glass jar (jar sprouter) or jar with muslin cover
Rinse 2-3 times per day for 2-3 days

Step 2 - Make the rejuvelac
Once growth is 1 cm, cover the young sprouts with water. Keep the container on the kitchen bench. After two days, use a sieve to collect the liquid rejuvelac. Drink it immediately or add to a vegetable juice, or store it tightly capped in the fridge.

Step 3
Add fresh water to the sprouts so they are just covered, and after a further 1-2 days pour off your second batch. The second and subsequent batches of rejuvelac sometimes have a white bubbly scum on the surface. Check the smell, and if there is the slightest sign of blue / green / black mould throw the whole lot away, otherwise skim off and discard the white foam.

Warmer temperatures in summer will decrease the fermenting times by as much as a third.
