Final verdict on Rejuvelac is that the process itself is generally pretty easy and produces great results(if you're into sprouted grains, that is). I made a few different batches of the drink, testing new theories and trying new recipes to see what I liked the best.
TIPS
-Clean your experiment holder (mason jar for me) well with warm water and soap before use
-Rinse and drain the grains diligently in the sprouting process
-Be aware of the temperature of the water when rinsing (warm is advised)
-Keep and eye out for the tails of the sprouts growing during the process (this is an indication that you're moving in the right direction)
-Don't be afraid to mess up or try your own alterations to the experiment!
My personal memoir of the the experiment:
Easily, I recall the first time hearing of Rejuvelac and thinking that it sounded like a cool experiment to try. At first, it reminded me of a Kombucha drink, as it works as a great probiotic for the GI system within our bodies. My favorite part of the process itself was watching the grains sprout; a procedure so simple yet fun to watch! The actual fermentation itself was pretty uneventful, I did see some bubbling happen and a slight change in the color of the drink, but mostly the sprouting was the best part to watch!
Actually...coming into class and hearing about all the experiments and results was probably my favorite part of the whole process. It was really cool to come into the classroom and see all the great products others had produced and better yet getting the chance to taste them.
Thank you to all that followed!
