This book explains how Everglade frontiersmen distilled swamp water. They used a 5-gallon can for a boiler and a coil of 3/8 inch copper tubing for a condenser. The condenser coil was cooled in a second 5-gallon lard can full of water. (ISBN: 0813015731) Glen Simmons and Laura Ogden. $24.95 Cloth. 5-3/4 x 8-1/2. 224p. index illus.

- Try less sprouts at first
You must be logged in to reply.
Like the article suggests, I tried sprouting 1.5 cups of mung beans (didn't have enough for 2 cups) in one of those quart (32oz) yogurt tubs.
<br/><br/>
I soaked them at 10pm and the next day the beans had expanded enough to fill the tub. I had to divide them and put half of them in another tub and just rinse. This is the third day and the tubs are pretty much full to the top.
<br/><br/>
If try this at home remember to eat quite a lot of them the second day or place half of them in a similar tub of yogurt or they will overflow
<br/><br/>
Now if I could get ahold of some good sprout recipes...Posted by MyTinyLab on October 15, 2005 at 10:05:26 Pacific Time
