How is our Grain is processed?
* First, the grain is washed several times to rinse dirt and loose particles.
* Then the grain is soaked for 24 hours in a mixture of distilled and mineral water fortified with gypsum, diammonium phosphate (a fertilizer/nutrient to provide an adequate amount of nitrogen, and correct PH) and other nutrient enhancing herbs and minerals.
* After soaking, the grains are brought to a boil, cooled, and rinsed one last time to assure they are of the proper cleanliness.
* The grains are packed in spawn bags, sealed with a heat sealer, and pressure sterilized at 15 PSI for 90 minutes.
* After several hours of cooling inside the pressure cooker, the spawn bags are packaged inside sterile bags, and packed for shipping.
* All work is done in a sterile lab in front of a laminar flow hood wearing all necessary equipment, i.e. surgical rubber gloves, scrubs, tyvek wrist sleeves, surgical face mask, hairnet, etc...
