Lol, I must be "compulsive" Re: "DeHulling" -here's a great site/basic instructions...anybody else have tips n' tricks?

So does everybody wait 'till they're ready to harvest & store before dehulling? Oh my, I fear I've stepped over the 'sanity line' again! lol

I start rinsing away hulls on about the second/third day. I prefer my sprouts more 'fully sprouted' than some, and I'm forever stressing about the hulls starting to rot and ruining a whole tray. Once the sprouts make a 'mat', I rinse the tray of sprouts by dunking it several times in my sink (1/2 full of water), while patting and shaking and encouraging the hulls to come off the tops of the sprouts and float qaway. Then I take the tray out of the water, "roll up the mat" & set it aside, and totally rinse out the tray before I unroll the mat back into the tray. And I do that for every tray twice a day once the sprouts are big enough to make a 'mat'. Is that compulsive/crazy unnecessary?

I agree, that entire "they'll all float to the top thing" is not my experience either. a LOT of them are "sinkers". I'm starting to think the 'sinkers' are the duds that didn't sprout, got waterlogged and sunk.

Sprout ON!
