The Kitchen Crop Sprouter is the easy way to produce fresh, high-quality sprouts in your own kitchen. In just 2-4 days enjoy healthful sprouts in soups, salads and sandwiches. Grow up to three different flavors at once. The Kitchen Crop sprouter makes sprouting fast, easy and fun. It produces a variety of fresh, crispy sprouts in just a few easy steps. First, pour seeds into the trays. Next add water. Exclusive siphon action distributes just the right amount. In 2 to 4 days you'll harvest a bumper crop. The Kitchen Crop sprouter is reusable so you can grow nutritious sprouts year round. Spread out the seeds evenly in the tray (about 1 tablespoon will produce a tray full of sprouts). The quantity of seeds used depends upon your individual requirements. The seeds will expand tremendously when wetted and will occupy approximately four times their initial volume. The water from the cover will flow down automatically from one tray to the next, thanks to the action of the siphon in each tray. At the end of the siphoning process, excess water will collect in the base. Empty the base when top trays are completely drained or before next watering. Depending upon the temperature and the type of seeds being grown, the sprouts should be edible in 2-5 days. If fresh sprouts are not to be consumed the day they are picked, they can be kept for a few days in the refrigerator. Rinse sprouts well under running water before eating. It's Easy: Add seeds. Add water. Enjoy Sprouts!

The siphoning problem is simple to solve. You just have to make sure you put enough water in the trays to rise above the little inserts. The siphoning won't start until you do. I do arrange the outlets over each other, to help wash the seeds away from the inserts. I don't like having sprouts grow in the little fins.
I start the seeds by soaking them in a small layer of water, too small to start the siphoning, then when I put in my nightly watering that rinses and starts the siphoning and so I don't have to transfer them.
This will be my third set in over 10 years (I think). The trays do break if you drop them often enough!LOL!

Good idea with the siphons, but they don't drain properly, so sprouts sit in water. In California, that means mold, bugs, and rot. Nice effort, but design needs to go back to the drawing board. And when I called the company to ask them some basic questions, they didn't know the answers and directed me to a store that carriers their products, and who don't recommend them. very strange, but it just goes to show that the company's just not very serious. I'm back on amazon to find a more effective sprouter.

I recently went raw (mostly anyway about a month ago) I have NEVER gotten mold, slime or anything of the sort. I didn't even look at the directions though. ALSO, you can use the top and bottom for sprouts (I do). Here is how you should used this.
1. Soak your seeds per instructions
2. Drain your seeds (completely)
3. Put the seeds in a layer on the bottom of one of the tiers
4. The next day (notice there wasn't a large amount of rinsing or rewatering) pour water in the top part (enough to make it flow down to the bottom. You can even forget about it and come back and drain it later.
5. Take the layers apart and slowly (to help you keep more of the seeds) drain off the water (all of it. Don't worry about them not having enough water. The Sprouter has a lid. Put it on the moisture isn't going anywhere and as the plants grow you might notice some condensation occuring. (like it's it's own little greenhouse)
6. Later that night (or the next day) do the same thing.
7. When the sprouts get large enough to hold down with your hand, Take off a later, turn on the running water, and "rinse" them off under running water. Drain and do the other levels instead of pouring water in and waiting for it to go down the holes. You can also rinse them by sort of shaking the level under running water, then holding the sprouts down and letting the water drain off. You'll see some husks run away with the water also this way.
In 3-6 days (depending on what you planted) you'll have some awesome sprouts
But what about the husks or skins of the plant? Rinse them off when you're done growing or even eat them. I use my largest bowl and running water. Takes about 10 minutes to get most of the skins off, probably less because the skins float and the sprouts don't. (not as much anyway)
The problem is not the sprouter, it's people using too much water and expecting things to work like magic. Your average land plant of any sort doesn't like to be submeged like that. I noticed the water level was higher than my seeds the first day I tried using this, so I adjusted by pouring some of the water off. Now I have a 5 tier sprouter that thinks it's a 3 tier. I'm going to attach a video of the process soon. The only thing I would say is the company probably should make those little holes smaller or adjust their "instructions".

This is what I am calling a "hokey" sprouter. It's small, hard to clean (with all the little grooved circles on the bottom) and doesn't rinse the sprouts well at all. My sprouts end up slimy and rotten every time. Sprouts should be rinsed VERY well, this unit does not allow proper rinsing, the vessels are to small and the syphoning action way to slow to provide a good rinse. It's one of the useless things to spend money on. I should have known better.
By Rev. Dr. Cyn (Bay Area, CA United States)
I like the concept, design, and small footprint. That being said, the siphoning action does not happen seamlessly. It takes a lot more attention and effort than I expected to have to devote to the sprouting process. I will probably return this and look for a more efficient sprouter.
