The finest Tray Sprouter ever is our Stainless Steel Sprouter. Truly. Just a fact. Growing Leafy Sprouts, like Alfalfa and Clover in a Tray Sprouter allows them to grow upright. It's a Beautiful crop! We made a movie to show you how to do it yourself.
This is a LONG movie! We believe that beginners need to see the processes in real time. We did actually shorten (speed up) several shots, so it's shorter than it could have been. But hey, it is Thorough! That's a good thing!
Please use the page on our site that is dedicated to the seed or mix you are sprouting, in addition to this video. You'll get a much broader education.
Happy Sprouting!

great video. sheesh, what's with all the complaints in the commnet section? -- "don't handle so hard, wasting too much water, video too long, i've been doing this 40 years, blah, blah, blah." how about complementing the detailed effort and beautiful final harvest? perhaps some folks should film their own videos?

Lovely and informative video. Your voice emits a Bob Ross energy that Delivers a dose of nostalgia to my life.

I own several sprouters and this one is the best for leafy green sprouts as I can get them much dryer than other methods and without using a salad spinner. I do lay out my crop on paper towels to blot them dry as much as possible. The dryer your sprouts, the longer they last. Before I bought the stainless steel sprouter I used Handy Pantry's 3 tier green plastic stacking sprouter. I was pleasantly surprised that the stainless steel sprouter fit perfectly in the Handy Pantry tray sprouter. Now I need to buy a couple more steel sprouters so I can grow three trays of leafy green sprouts at once, but only take up the counter space of one sprouter.

Thank you so much Gil for an awesome and informative video. I loved it that you showed how to cut off the roots. It is hard to say what I might have done. Thanks for a completely educational video. Now I have to have this piece of equipment too.

@laurabowen9960 5 лет назад

I just pull them up straight up without cutting. But I now see how cutting the roots make for faster cleaning.

Great video, I love those stainless trays, I actually grow microgreens and sprouts for my friend's family's farm/greenhouse/veggie stand down here in SW Michigan. Q: Why cut off the tap root? They are chuck full over nutrition!! I noticed you put your drain tray on a plate, then they get smashed, stay in water, turn yellow and look, smell and taste, well, not the greatest. If you suspend the bottom of the drip tray, an inch or more, the roots grow nice and straight, stay white, taste amazing, then the entire sprout can be easily pulled out and there is ZERO waste. I'm telling you bro, you are wasting good stuff that way.

@playhard23 Год назад

This might be silly but could you tell me what to look for for those SS bowls?

@Idiocracynotjustamovie 3 года назад

When the roots come through the bottom, is it not necessary to prop them up somehow so there is no pressure on them from being flush with the bottom plate?

Can this sprouter go in the dishwasher? Loved the visiting dog.

@VladimirKelman Год назад

So, do you recommend this stainless steel sprouter over the plastic Easy Sprouter (also on your site)? I sprout mixes for my parrots. Also, on a great RU-vid video, which describes how to use Easy Sprouter, they recommend putting 6 drops of GSE (Grapefruit Seed Extract) into water and soaking sprouts in that GSE for 3 minutes on each sprouts rinsing iteration. GSE depresses harmful bacteria. Do you think it's a good idea?

@lindablanchard1803 Год назад

Your videos crack me up. Informative, too, of course. If I eat lots of sprouts, will I grow to be as funny as you are? : )

Hi, just enquiring can you buy the stainless steel sprouters in Australia? Having difficulties finding them. Thanks.

@HanzouTheRazor 4 года назад

Amazon has now one (not Sprout People's). Delivery to Australia from SP was just way too expensive for me. The Amazon version is also very well made and works just like this one.

@Sattvala 4 года назад

So Micro-Greens have to be planted in soil, but "leafy greens" (like your Long Life and Italian sprout mix) can be grown in jars or your Stainless Steel Sprouter - have I got that right?🤞?

@carpediemjonah8110 5 лет назад

Quick question. I have your stainless steel sprouter. I love it. I usually purchase your longevity mix. Is there any precautions you might add for that mix? Since the cruciferous blends tend to mold more easily. Also, I usually uncover the longevity mix after only 2 days of covering. Would you suggest I keep them covered for a longer time?

@cantbeatthebay4765 4 года назад

I know Gil has his quickest responses via email. Sproutpeople.org has a bountiful amount of information!

all that rinse water going down the drain could be captured in a big bowl and re-used to soak dirty dishes or water plants.

Beware some seeds release chemicals to stop others from sprouting/growing

You dont use the salad spinner Like with Easy Sprouter?

@laurabowen9960 5 лет назад

I don't feel the need to use a salad spinner with the stainless steel sprouter when sprouting leafy greens. I don't pull then up until about 12 or so hours after my last rinse and they are pretty dry. I blot them with a paper towel out of habit.

@Ink_farm_art 4 года назад

In culinary school, we called that a sieve. Stainless steel sieves are way cheaper than "sprouters".

@cantbeatthebay4765 4 года назад

In the sprout world, "sieves" do not properly grow sprouts due to their shape. Sprouts generally require a flat bed -- not a circular base. Hence, the stainless steel Sprouter. Sieves do not do what a stainless steel Sprouter does. (Especially when it comes to microgreens!)

@Fridelain 2 года назад

looks like a flour sifter

@zanaros2606 Год назад

An extremely cheap flat flour sifter would do the same job. You don't need to pay for the "Seed Sprouter" label.

@ooohlaa13 5 лет назад

Beautiful product and results ... however I wouldn't dream of using that powerful spray on delicate sprouts, even as seeds, I am sure they are traumatized little beings. Way too aggressive handling imo. I have been sprouting for 50 years and a gentle spray works best and leaves the plants less beat up in the end. It would be more helpful if you said Day 1 Day 2 instead of 8 hours, hard to keep track of what is happening at 8 hours later each time. Love the equipment but the tutorial is agonizingly slow. Watched on 1.5 to see if you have any tips other than buying the product because I always have problems with the hulls getting slimy. So still dont know how many DAYS??? this took do not want to go back and watch the whole video to figure it out.

@briangodfrey5079 5 лет назад

I've only been sprouting for 41 years, but I've done it in many different climates and year-round in houses where we use minimal heat and A/C. Since this video was made for an unknown audience, and since sprouts grow at different rates at different temperatures, and since some people may start them in the morning while others do in the evening, it would be impossible to accurately say how many days it took to get to each stage. With your experience, I think if you watch the sprouts as they progress you will know what to do with them on any particular day. Oh, and yeah, I was a bit surprised at the rough handling, too. But then this guy has grown more sprouts in his life than I could grow in 1000 lifetimes and I think he knows his stuff. Most seeds that sprout must force their roots into the hard, gritty soil, so I guess they are tougher than they look.

@ooohlaa13 5 лет назад

@@briangodfrey5079 Yes seeds are tough and so are we but I think we all prefer kindness and a genteel approach to aggressive. When I was working in NYC I used to go to eat at Hare Krishna and one day I asked them what made the food taste so exceptional, and they said they consciously focus on loving each and every ingredient of the food they were preparing. So I never forgot this and 40 plus years later I am telling people about blessing the food in every way while preparing and eating. I think it makes a palpable difference, its a matter of consciousness, being mindful and grateful. Thanx for your comment, I know this is a bit airy fairy.
