Wheat mash from sprouted wheat
Description
The key to the entire process is choosing good-quality wheat that hasn't undergone intensive chemical treatment; otherwise, your mash may simply turn sour at some stage. Therefore, choose high-quality grain from a trusted supplier, and everything else will go smoothly. During fermentation, it's best to let the beverage steep in a place that's not too hot, avoiding temperature fluctuations. The drink is ready to serve.
