Carson Subject: newbie To: sproutpeople Date: Sunday, March 27, 2011, 1:03 AM  Hi everyone, So excited about growing sprouts . Have not yet gotten an insurance policy that my Farmers Market requires. Any thoughts and help would be very much appreciated. Also, does anyone know about the Tersano Lotus LBU 100 and what do you think. Thank you all for your time and energy!!!

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Thanks n for the response, Well I would love to soak the sprouts after harvest in a bath. And feel comfortable that I would have no contaminants. Don't think it would work any other way because of hulls that would put the machine in a F4 mode as a safety thing. As I also plan on selling sprouts and micro green at the farmers market. But don't know if it will take care of an internally contaminated seed that is then sprouted. Or if I soak the seeds in the machine solution prior to sprouting,  would it change the seed somehow.?  I know there are slim cases of sprouts making people sick. Just worried about liability. I do have a food handlers license. This products also extends shelf life and gets rid of nasty stuff on fruits and veggies. Could you believe how just water can clean those counters. No bad chemicals. Love that plus also.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 here in CA. you have to have a State Agriculture License and be inspected by the County Health Dept. You might want to check those things for your area. ew newbie Hi everyone, So excited about growing sprouts . Have not yet gotten an insurance policy that my Farmers Market requires.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Hi -- and welcome. Hope that things go well with the Farmer's Market. I did look up the Tersano device, and I'm frankly unimpressed with it. It certainly won't remove bacteria from internally-contaminated sprouts (nothing will). I think you'd get most of your surface cleaning done in the pre-rinsing of your completed sprouts, and the device seems an (admittedly attractive LOL, I love gadgets myself) unnecessary expenditure. Plus, if you're planning volume production of sprouts, you'll be spending plenty of extra time prepping water in the device, soaking, etc. Gil details Sproutpeople's history as sprout farmers here: http://sproutpeople.org/who.html It's a great read and might be helpful.
