Dear Friends,
I do have a sprout maker - but in my personal opinion (strictly), a hot case or casserole serves the purpose far better. I soak moong etc for 8 hrs, drain completely & put in the casserole or hot case. It sprouts very well.
Channa etc take along time to sprout & not always successful. With sprout maker also, the same problem continues.
The best to sprout at home are whole moong, mot, methi & horesegram. The last 2 take longer to sprout, but do well.I nomore use my sprout maker.
Love,
Chithra.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this thread. Its been a while I logged on to this website.Bow

I really liked the idea of using casserole for sprouting. I soak moon for about12 hrs,drain water and let it stand for 2 hrs and then tie them in a cloth and keep in a box. After 24hrs they have sprouted well .
Was just wondering if the sprout maker makes the job easier or faster but seems thats the same as doing it my way.

Thanks

Hi Ladies,

Here is my version. I use to soak and after draining I will just put them in a plastic box and keep it in the fridge. That is all the next day you can take your sprout. Fenugreek and Green moong will sprout very quickly.

Hi Krishnamma:

How do they sprout if you keep the soaked seeds in the fridge? If they do how long does it take?
