The man who told me about them is SOLD on them. I couldn't keep them in stock in the store when it was on my farm. I just ordered them for the store and have already had to reorder once and need to place another order. He said they are so easy to use. There is a good picture of how they work on my store page. I am not trying to be pushy here, but just passing on what I have seen and heard. :) http://www.amazinggrazefarm.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=6_17&products_id=112 Kim, I sell a sprouter in my store.

I recently acquired Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon and followed what she recommended. It works, and it makes the best kitchen decor, in my opinion - a nice row of jars lined up on the ledge above my kitchen sink. I use wide-mouth canning jars with heavy-duty plastic screen mesh (scavenged from leftovers from the screen porch) and the wide-mouth canning rings. Works wonderfully and drains well. I'm seriously thinking of finding a way to use a 5-gallon bucket with screen and elastic to sprout a WHOLE BUNCH of wheat to be turned into bulgur, since my children love bulgur cereal in the morning, and it's quick to make.

I love this type of lid- easy to wash, easy to rinse sprouts. We have great success with alphalfa. I second kattmaxx! I love this type of lid- easy to wash, easy to rinse sprouts.

I have used it for sprouting mung beans successfully. Alfalfa seems to always go bad on me but I live in a damp cool climate.I get mung beans from the asian market or the health food grain store. Don't forget a daily rinse and drain. http://www.amazon.com/Sprouting-Strainer-Lid-Wide-mouth-Sprouter/dp/B000N8MRW8/ref=pd_sim_misc?ie=UTF8&qid=1239723923&sr=8-7 This is a lid that is washable that you can use on a canning jar that works well.
