• A Worm Composter would do the trick plus supply great soil amendment for potted plants and a container garden if you don't have access to a garden plot. If its well managed it will not smell up your place. This is a great site for worm composting re…

• I agree a to what some have mentioned, we need Raw Certification. No matter who you deal with you can never be assured 100%. With the number of food products we carry in our online store in Canada we have to accept the claims of our suppliers as bei…

• Some brands are labeling their herbs and spices raw. At least here in Canada. I’m sure as the demand grows they’ll be easier to find. But fresh will always be best in flavor in my opinion.

• In Canada we are able to get Sicilian Almonds in stores and online that are not pasteurized like the ones from the U.S.A.

• Its best to use sprouted and dehydrated nuts and seeds if you want to store your butters and not use it up right away.

• I too can say that Excalibur provides excellent technical support by phone. They can tell you exactly what is wrong and if you need a part you can have it shipped to you quickly. They’ll walk you through your repair step by step.

• Soak time is really not an issue. We soak it 8 hours (overnight) every time we sprout some (which is weekly). The key is in many rinses during the first day of sprouting to eliminate the slimy aspect. Once it rinses clean we rinse only twice a day t…

• Maybe too late to reply now but it sounds like its fermented. Its not really forgiving if it hasn’t been rinsed enough. Its slimy at first and needs lots of rinses. We sprouted lots of buckwheat each week and fill a 9 tray excalibur with sprouts. Ma…

• I find powder to be the most useful form in most recipes but I prefer to grind the nibs myself in a small “coffee” grinder. It seems to be fresher that way.

• Hi Lou, I lived in Georgia for about 4 years and used my dehydrator while there. I never had a bug issue. If you keep it clean bugs shouldn’t be a problem.

• Real thick preparations always tend to heat up in the Vita-Mix. As suggested adding some water will prevent overheating. We use our cuisinart too for pates and such. The Vita-Mix is a great machine for many uses but it does have some limitations.

• If it doesn’t say Raw you could always sprout test them. The oats that we carry in our Canadian online shop are Raw and will sprout.
