Rejuvelac - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup rye berries (or wheat berries, or brown rice, or whole oat groats, or other sproutable grain)
    8 cups water, divided
Preparation
    In a large bowl, soak grains in 2 cups of water for 8-12 hours. Drain and rinse.
    Repeat soaking procedure until you see the grains start to sprout. Then drain thoroughly.
    In a wide mouth jar or bowl, add 4 cups of water and sprouted grains. Cover loosely with towel and let sit for 2 days until a white liquid forms.
    Strain grains reserving white liquid. (This is your rejuvelac.)
    The rejuvelac is ready when it has a tart lemon taste. Best when chilled if drinking directly.
    (Toss out the grains -- or hopefully compost.).
