Guest guest Posted February 4, 1999 Report Share Posted February 4, 1999 ell I'm glad Victor is glad.<br><br>Sometimes I don't know how to take you Victor. I'm neither under the " heroic delusion " that raw food will solve our problems nor an " obsessive leader who will sacrifice himself " so that you will feel guilty. This is just an avenue to share our common experiences with a raw food diet both good and bad. I just happen to be sharing more than the others are right now. But it is funny what you say. My experiences with raw food have all been good except when I flagrantly abuse myself with it.<br><br>I've recently read that Fruitarians are big in Australia so you're in good company. And I've learned that fruits ARE the most ideal raw food for us.<br><br>NOW FOR THE SPROUTER INFORMATION:<br><br>I've sprouted for years and have never really been happy with any sprouting setup. There's always a problem with whatever method I use whether it is in time, room, expense, etc. Well I saw a sprouter ad on the web that caught my interest and I made a note of it. But the other day I was in my local healthfood store and there it was. It cost me $8.99. I grew my first batch of sunflower sprouts in it and I am very happy with it. This is the first time I have ever really found sprouting to be VERY SIMPLE. <br><br>The sprouter is called " EASYSPROUT " made by Sproutamo. Here's one of the few urls I could find so you can see a diagram of it:<br><br><a href=http://www.sproutpeople.com/devices.html target=new>http://www.sproutpeople.com/devices.html</a><br><br>It's not a very good diagram though. It's very well designed. I wish I thought of it. It's a liter plastic cup inside another larger plastic cup. The inside cup has small holes in the bottom. When you insert the inside cup it leaves about a ¼ inch space for water drainage. Then there is a vented lid that fits on top. You can soak, rinse, sprout and store you sprouts all on the same container. Very well thought out. It's the perfect size for family but I'll probably go out and buy one or two more for variety. The key advertised features are: larger batches, less time to harvest (8-48 hrs), minimal sprout disturbance, longer storage life, and the ability to grow sprouts with NO RINSING! I grew my sunflower sprouts with no rinsing in a total of 14 hours!<br><br>Now this is not one of those commercial models so you can sprout a bushel full of seeds everyday that costs several hundreds of dollars. It's the under $10 model that will allow you to sprout enough for you and your family with minimal time and effort and still get excellent results.<br><br>So what do you know? Another happy customer! How rare!<br><br>-OrionsDad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
