So I made a mung sst followed hyroot v2 of it. It foamed pouring out if bucket in literslly 5 seconds.
1st question. What do you look at to see if this seed is or better then that seed etc. I have barley mung and quinoa. Is there certain nutriotional value to look at to determine a better seed to use.
2nd question. Whats the perticular reason of doing soak for 10hrs wet towel for 10 hours and repeat with of course the rinsing. If the seeds sprout quicker do I still soak and place on towel. Can someone explain a little in detail the purpose or a good site to read so I can answer and get a better concept on ssts main purpose. Yes enzymes proteins etc but wha5s the benefits etc thanks

I can't help you here, I use the regular method of just soaking overnight and then rinsing and then soaking in an aerated bucket till they pop.
free bump though, I still say we need a sticky for the SSTs.
good luck

mineral content mainly. alfalfa seeds have triacontanol just like alfalfa meal. So you don't want to use it past week 4 of flower. I don't like sunflower seeds due to the high oil content. Everything else is fine. Some seeds are harder to sprout than others like chia or clover seeds. Mung bean, barley, corn seed, pumpkin seed are the easiest to sprout and sprout faster than others. they only take 2 days to sprout.

It seems the other player have gone back to 2.0 SST instead of the Malted Barley Flour. Of course fresh will always be better than a powder. I plan to use the rest of my powder and revert back to 2.0. Cheers!

Sprouted Seed Tea v2.0

Jon Stika of Brew Your Own Magazine describes malt as "barley that has been sprouted to the point where enzymes are produced that will convert its starchy interior to sugar." After the grain has been malted, the sugar is fermented by yeast to make beer.

This is an accurate overview of an article he wrote for those who want to make their own malt and here's the Reader's Digest version:

Weigh out 2 oz. of Barley seed and remove any foreign matter by the seeds into a large jar and fill it half-way with water and agitate to wash the barley. Pour off loose husks & dirt that float to the top. Drain in a colander. Repeat until everything has been removed.

Soak the seeds in water for 8 - 10 hours. Drain the seeds and weigh after completely draining the water off. Assuming you started with 56 grams, you want to hit a minimum of 84 grams at the end of these processes.

Let the Barley rest for 8 - 10 hours and then soak for another 8 hours, drain and weigh. Repeat if necessary but that's not too unlikely.

Take a piece of cloth and you want to use something as 'raw' as possible like hemp cloth, organic cotton, linen, canvas, flax, etc. - just check with a large fabric store. If you buy a piece that is a square it probably helps or doesn't.

Wet your cloth, wring out and fold it 2 times. During the rest cycles this is where you want to let the seeds rest. You want moisture surrounding the seeds but not water.

Once you hit 84+ grams, spread your seeds again in the middle of this folded piece of fabric, place that in a brown paper bag - 55F - 65F ambient temperatures will move this along quickly.

When the shoots inside the seed have grown the length of the seed you're done. You're not growing sprouts but rather activating the enzymes and the compounds in the endosperm as described in the post above.

Take these seeds and put them in a blender and some water and get it to a puree to the extent possible. Using 56 grams to start will give enough puree to make 5 gallons of tea.

Water your plants with this diluted tea. This will give you far, far more enzymes than the straight sprouting method. One thing about beer brewers is that they live & die by enzyme levels extracted from seeds and this article is cited on several home brew forums.

Have you heard of quinoa seeds. There small seeds and are now considered a super food. I ordered barley amd mung seeds from nuts.com and they gave me the quinoa seeds free

yeah. some one else on here used them. I think they take a while to sprout too. personally I prefer mung beans and barley (if I can find them) . Whole foods is out and doesn't know when they are getting the next shipment of barley. Mung beans dropped in price. They're now $2.49 a pound locally. 1/3 cup makes 2 oz

their barley is hulled. which means it won't sprout. The process of removing the hull also removes the embryo. I can find hulled / pearled barley every where. No one has un-hulled barley.

Everything else on there is more expensive than I pay locally.


build a soil has barley that sprouts though.

I find a lot of sprouting seeds in one of the natty grocers isles. I suspect whole foods, etc would have these items as well. Takes a little shopping around, but a lot of people can find them locally if they dig a little. I used a buckwheat SST a couple days ago.

I have not been able to find much information on enzyme levels of malted grains. The beer industry has done the most research I can find, and they are primarliy interested in Amylase. I did come across this info:

ENZYMES IN MALTED BARLEY: (not a complete list…)

Amylases
α amylase
β amylase
cellulase
limit dextrinase
R-enzyme

Beta-glucanases
Endo-β-glucanase
Exo-β-glucanase
β-oligosaccharase
β-glucan solubilase

Pentosanases
Endoxylanase
Exoxylanase
Xylo-oligosaccharase
Arabinosidase

Proteases
Alkaline peptidases
Amino peptidases
Carboxypeptidases
Endopeptidases
Exopeptidases
Neutral peptidases

Phosphatases
Pyrophosphatase
Hexophosphatase
Triphosphatase
Tetraphosphatase
β-glycerophosphatase

Lipases
Lipoxygenase
Hydroperoxide isomerase

Nucleases
Deoxyribonuclease
Ribonucleases
Phosphodiesterase
Phosphomonoesterase
Adenosine nucleosidase

And from Coot:

These are but a few of the enzymes that contribute to a soil’s health:

Amylase
Arylsulphatase
Β-Glucosidase
Cellulase
Chitinase
Dehydrogenase
Phosphatase
Protease
Urease

Chitinase is the enzyme created by bacterial action on Chitin. Chitin in and of itself does nothing but the enzyme created, Chitinase, is what provides the pesticide action.

Amylase is found in many plant materials including Aloe Vera, Coconut water, et al.

I'm very interested if anyone has additional information on enzymes in malted grains.

Peace!
