Ingredients
Organic mountain lentils

Usage
1. Place one to two tablespoons of seeds in a preserving jar and add plenty of lukewarm/warm water. [Any glass jar will do, as long as it's large enough (at least 1.5 liters) and the neck isn't (too) narrowed.]

2. Attach a plastic or fiberglass insect screen to the pot using a sturdy (postal) elastic band. Avoid aluminum insect screens, as they are sometimes treated to protect against insects.

3. After the indicated soaking time¹, drain the water, rinse the seeds, and drain the water again.

4. Place the pot upside down at room temperature in a colander, rack or container so that excess water can drain away.

It's important that all the water can drain; the water that remains on the sprouts is enough to keep the germination process going. It's also important that the seeds/sprouts don't cover the entire screen. Sufficient airflow is essential for good results. Therefore, after each rinsing, distribute the seeds/sprouts evenly across the length of the pot.
Do not place the pot with seeds/sprouts on a radiator or in direct sunlight!

5. Rinse the seeds/sprouts for the indicated growing period² approximately 3 times a day, and then always store the pot upside down at an angle.

6. After the very last rinse*, allow the sprouts to dry in the jar (inverted at an angle) at room temperature for at least 18 hours before consuming them and/or placing them in the refrigerator.

* If desired, the final rinse can be replaced by a 'wash' to remove the germs from the pellets:
-Fill a bowl or something similar to the brim with lukewarm/warm water.
-Put the sprouts in here and 'wash' the sprouts loose.
-Skim the pellets by 'waving' them over the edge of the bowl.
-Scoop the sprouts out of the water by hand and put them back in the pot.
-Reattach the gauze, turn the pot upside down at an angle, and let it grow dry at room temperature for at least 18 hours.

Store leftover sprouts in a cool place (max. 7°C) and sealed (not airtight).

¹ Soaking time: approx. 10 hours
* Cultivation time: ± 4 days
