Im curious, what is the point of fermentation if you kill off the good bacteria by cooking it?

Wild yeasts which cause initial breakdown of sugars and acetobacter that removes harmful chemicals. Plants fight their consumers chemically, it's their natural defense. Stuff like gluten and phytic acid causes damage to us and these microorganisms remove the plant's defense mechanism.

Do you then dry them and grind them for flour? Or do you use them sort of like one might use rice? If doing this to make grains more digestible, could one first soak them overnight, then sprout them and then ferment them? And if fermenting them after soaking and sprouting, is it best to coarsely grind them first. And it's a tblsp. per cup of grains, is that right?

in this video, I don't dry them, I use them for breakfast porridge. Yes soaking and fermenting make whole grains more digestible. You can certainly dry and grind after soaking, and that's what I do too. I only use 1 TBSP of whey, vinegar or juice from fermented vegetables per jar.

@@GourmetVegetarianKitchen Thank you very much. I'm used to fermenting flour, but the actual grains, I wasn't certain how much whey or vinegar or lemon juice one should use. This really helps.

Can you ferment with anything else besides whey?

@GourmetVegetarianKitchen

Yes, you can use lemon juice, or apple cider vinegar instead of whey for the first time. After the first night before you dump the soaking water, reserve about 10% of it in a small glass jar. Keep it in the fridge and use it instead of lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, or whey for your next soak. I'm glad you are interested in this!

When you ferment rice, do you tighten the lid or use a breathable cloth to cover to let air in? Some video you used an airlock or the cap, but I read your comment that don't tighten the lid Thank you

When I made this video, I covered the lids loosely. However, as I do this very often, I know that you can do it without covering it as well. Now, I like to use sprouting lids as they are very easy to rinse.

Question..... on your website, you mentioned soaking for 2 days but you said to drain and refill with just water. Which way is correct? 2 full days with the same water, or a water change? Thanks!

DAPTXDC4869 Right. The use of whey doesnt make sence to me. Rejuvalc would be much more beneficial and at least an option for some concerned by using a product that is highly Mucus forming.

I just drink water after I'm done and it clears the throat fine, like when you're thirsty after eating something sugary. The whey is just there to better ensure safe, consistent, and faster results in the end product, and in some cases to add extra nutrients. You get less diversity for it, but it's also less risky than trying wild microbes. It's a tradeoff. Your choice in the end.

Grains contain many anti-nutrients, phytates, etc. In order to ensure that the grains are nourishing, one should soak, sprout and ferment the grains and also cook them. Grains should never be eaten raw. Get all the good things you need from raw foods elsewhere, because unless grains are cooked, they will still contain a fairly large amount of anti-nutrients.
