With the Easy Green sprouter simply add seeds and water
The automatic sprouter by Easy Green takes the mess out of
sprouting. If you love consuming fresh sprouts but have had
difficulty with the continuing process required to grow them
such as pre-soaking and rinsing (between 3 and 6 times a day),
then this sprouter is the perfect compliment to your living food
kitchen.
The Easy Green sprouter automatically soaks, rinses, mists,
oxygenates and drains the sprouts ready for you to eat in about
7 - 10 days. This sprouter has 5 trays so you can sprout an
abundant mix of organic sprouting seeds at the one time such as
alfalfa, broccoli, lentil, mung, sunflower and wheatgrass. The
trays can be placed directly into the fridge. This is the only
domestic unit which can easily be turned into a commercial
application as the units can be stacked up to five or 6 high.
Why are sprouts so good?
Sprouts have the greatest nutrient activity of all raw foods.
This is because sprouts are actually still in the process of
growing. They are at the peak of their life force. The body
readily absorbs these nutrients from sprouts, and they are
easily digested. This saves your body energy. Because sprouts,
or germinated seeds, are pre-digested food, they have what's
called a "higher biological efficiency value" than
whole seeds, whether raw or cooked. Sprouts also have a
regenerating effect on the human body. Why? It's due to the high
concentration of RNA, DNA, protein and essential minerals that's
found only in living cells.
Easy Green Sprouter is the easiest sprouter to use
Patented technology
Seeds that are sprouting generate heat during germination and
need to be cooled to avoid mould and rotting. This seed sprouter
is so successful because water is misted onto the seed using a
timer set to 96 activations. This is critical to controlling the
humidity which affects the sturdiness of your sprouts. Sprouts
require little water but abundant amounts of oxygen. Other
automated sprouters and conventional sprouting methods supply
plenty of water yet only provide natural air displacement.
Economical water
This sprouter uses about 2.3 litres of water in 24 hours due to
its fine misting activity. The EasyGreen drains all water out of
the machine directly into you pipes or into a bucket. Inhibitors
in seeds are the natural defense mechanism of the seeds, acting
as a deterrent for germs and bugs. Some sprouters re-circulate
the same water. Your sprouts are then irrigated with water
containing toxins and inhibitors, defeating the concept of using
clean, good water for your sprouts. Bearing in mind that sprouts
consist of 80% water, using clean water makes sense. Some
automatic irrigation systems use 5 times this amount.
No pre-soaking
Conventional sprouters require a pre-soaking operation of
between 8 and 24hrs before commencing the propagation of the
seed. The Easy Green requires NO pre-soaking. Seeds are placed
in the tray or cartridge DRY and the machine takes over, thus
saving you an extra day of pre-soaking and the manual handling
of the repeat daily rinsing.
Choose the quality of water
The in-built reservoir allows you to choose the type of water
you want sprayed over your sprouts and allows for liquid
minerals to be added
Soil or hydroponic
Some growers prefer to use soil for some crops such as
wheatgrass or sunflower greens. The Easy Green allows sprouts to
be grown in soil and hydroponically.
EasyGreen - easy clean
The EasyGreen has an automatic disinfecting cycle, therefore
keeping high sanitation conditions within the machine. Only
large commercial systems have a similar function.
Food grade quality
The EasyGreen sprouter uses food grade quality trays and
cartridges in accordance with DFA regulations.
Removable trays
Sprouts taken out of conventional systems need to be placed in a
secondary storage container for refrigeration. Easygreen trays
can be placed directly into the fridge for later use.
Unique rotation system
According to Dr Ann Wigmore, a 5 day growing cycle for seeds
such as alfalfa, broccoli, radish, clover and the similar is
ideal. The Easygreen is the only system on the market which uses
five trays, allowing you to rotate your crops.

Different kinds of seeds you can sprout
This list gives the popularly sprouted seeds and is not all
enclusive as you can sprout any kind of seed.
- Generally eaten raw: Alfalfa, radish, mung bean,
sunflower, clover, cabbage
- Generally cooked: Kidney, Pinto and other miscellaneous
beans
- Eaten raw or cooked: Lentils, Soy beans, green peas and
wheat. (In addition, all the sprouts that are generally
eaten raw can be easily cooked.)
- Alfalfa: Alfalfa, one of the most popular sprouts, is a
good source of vitamins A, B, C, D, E, F, and K and is rich
in many minerals, as well as many enzymes needed for
digestion
- Radish sprouts are high in vitamin C and potassium and
have a rich flavor
- Wheat is high in Vitamins B, C, and E and has three times
the vitamin E of dry wheat. Wheat also has many minerals.
- Mung Beans: These sprouts should be sprouted under
pressure to produce long and juicy sprouts. Mung bean
sprouts are an excellent source of protein, vitamin C, A and
E, along with many minerals
- Green Pea sprouts are rich in many of the B vitamins and
vitamin C. Green pea sprouts make a rich addition to any
green salad.
- Soybeans: An extremely rich source of protein and vitamins
A, B, C and E. Soybeans are rich in minerals and lecithin.
They can be sprouted under pressure like mung beans
- Kidney beans, pinto beans and miscellaneous beans: They
are a good source of vitamin C, many of the B vitamins and
many minerals. Sprouting these beans also changes their
indigestible carbohydrates to digestible carbohydrates
thereby greatly reducing the intestinal gas they otherwise
cause
- Lentils: Rich in protein, vitamin C and the B vitamins.
They have a mild ground pepper flavor
- Buckwheat: Makes a great salad green. High in vitamins A,
B, C and D
- Sunflower: Rich in vitamins B, D, and E, many minerals,
and Linoleic acid
The newest design for starting virtually every sproutable
seed. Complete with Mist Generator, Timer, 5 cartridges, Owner's
Manual, collection pan, and drain tube. The EasyGreen is easy to
use. Just add water and seeds.
