FAQ EasyGreen Automatic Sprouter

How much wheatgrass juice can the easygreen sprouter produce?

The quantity of juice extracted depends on the quality of seed used, the season and the quality of the juicer machine used. In general, a large tray (equivalent to 6 small trays) will produce 10 ounces / 300 ml of juice.

Does the EasyGreen Sprouter provide enough light?

The EasyGreen top is completely clear to provide enough natural light for all sprouts with the exception of green such as sunflower and wheatgrass. Greens require direct sun for 1 or 2 days in order to get good chlorophyll. Greens should be removed from the machine before maturity and placed in a sunny location for greening. All other sprouts are very sensitive to light and ambient light will suffice.

How long is the growing process from seed to grass?

The total time will depend on weather conditions, season of the year, quality of seed, difference between max/min temperature day and night. In general the complete cycle should take approximately 9-10 days, 6-7 days in the EasyGreen machine and 2-3 days in direct sun (outside the machine).

Will one easygreen machine produce enough wheatgrass so I can juice a few ounces a day?

A single EasyGreen unit will provide 1 ounce / 30ml of wheatgrass juice per day. This is based on a yield per tray of 300ml / 10 ounces assuming a 10 day growing cycle. However, as the grass need only spend 6-7 actually within the machine, the use of additional trays and rotation could maximise your yield a further 40%.

Will the sprouter Sprout Beans, Seeds? What about Flax Seeds? What about nuts?

It will sprout all beans and sproutable seeds. Flax is a mucilaginous seed and will partially sprout only when placed between 2 wet towels. Most nuts will not sprout. If you put raw shelled almonds in the machine, they will grow a small tail, but not sprout into a plant.
