SOL Drainage Basin

DELIVERY FIRST HALF OF OCTOBER 2023

The long-awaited innovation: the autonomous, silent, low-tech, eco-friendly, portable sprouter that grows your sprouted seeds for you.

Have you ever tried or thought about sprouting your seeds at home, but without success? Rest assured, the common obstacles are widespread:
- difficulties in changing dietary habits
- lack of time or discipline to manage a sprouter regularly (forgetting to rinse...)
- personal organization seemingly incompatible (absences during the week, travel...)
- presence of gnats or mold... leading to the abandonment of sprouted seeds.

The Easygreen Sol solves all these problems in no time! An autonomous sprouter that takes care of watering regularly, allowing air circulation, and growing your seeds wherever you are. Here is a short 1min43s report made by FR3 Pays Gardois:

🌱 Advantages of the Easygreen Sol

✓ Autonomy of 4 to 5 days with 5L of water. Go away for the weekend and find fresh seeds upon your return.
✓ Low-tech: the timer works using ingeniously applied physical principles. No energy required.
✓ Eco-friendly: bio-sourced and recyclable material (via the standard recycling bin).
✓ Lightweight, detachable, and portable, to be used anywhere.
✓ No more soaking seeds, no more watering, monitoring is reduced to a minimum.
✓ Versatile: it can sprout a large number of seeds, including mucilaginous seeds, wheatgrass, barley, and young shoots.
✓ Ultra-local: consume what you produce in your kitchen. Develop your food autonomy.
✓ Local: 100% French, made in Nîmes in the Gard.

🌱 Operating Principle

The Easygreen Sol sprouter is the result of 5 years of research, using various physical principles, including the siphon effect.
Under the 5L reservoir is a small reservoir that fills slowly, in about 4 to 5 hours. Once this reservoir is full, gravity allows it to empty all at once in 5 seconds at the center of the distribution tray. The water is then evenly distributed in the tray through all the openings, and a rain falls on the sprouted seeds placed below.

The multiple open holes in the enclosure allow the seeds to be aerated and let light through for good shoot development.
The rinsing and watering water is directed to the drainage tray and evacuated through the provided hose.
The animation below explains everything:

🌱 Usage and Operation

Its use is very simple, there are only a few tips to know: they are all explained in detail in the manual provided with the sprouter.

1. Spread the seeds in a thin layer on the germination tray. The provided strips allow you to create 4 compartments on this tray. The compartments can be filled on different days for continuous production of sprouted seeds.

2. Fill the reservoir with clear, filtered water. The quality of the water is crucial for the optimal growth of the seeds.

3. Choose the timer: cap 1 for normal operation, cap 7 for slower operation (more spaced-out watering). The secret of the sprouter lies in this small cap that allows the exact amount of water needed for regular watering over several days.

4. Close the lid.

And come back in 3 days to harvest your precious little sprouts!

Note: you will need a container to collect the drained water. It should be placed at least 40 cm below the autonomous sprouter.
A 3rd cap is provided to completely stop the system.
We recommend using eco-friendly coffee filters as a growth medium for optimal growth (the filters will retain moisture).

🌱 Owning an Easygreen

Easygreen is a brand created in 1996 with over 25 years of expertise. Based on unparalleled experience in germination and the ingenuity of Sol Azulay, the engineer behind these innovations and a friend of Eric Viard, it was only natural that Biovie took over Easygreen's operations upon Sol's retirement and became the sole manufacturer of Easygreen sprouters.

By purchasing the Easygreen, you make an important step towards improving the quality of your daily diet, consuming foods produced in your own kitchen with unmatched freshness and vitality.
Sprouted seeds contain numerous nutrients and very interesting substances like polyphenols, powerful antioxidants, and cellular protectors. For example, sprouted broccoli seeds contain 100 times more sulforaphane than broccoli!

For regular consumers of sprouted seeds, it's also a significant saving! With small trays ranging from €2.50 to €5 in the fresh sections of organic stores, the bill can quickly add up. By buying your dry seed packets, you save up to 10 times the weekly amount of your consumption.

With an autonomous sprouter that works on its own, you will have a fun, abundant, and economical source of organic superfoods at home every day.

🌱 Comparison with traditional sprouters

Are you used to seeing plastic tray sprouters, terracotta ones, or even glass jars? The Easygreen Sol revolutionizes the sprouter market with its ease of use and 3 to 4 days of autonomy.
Its main advantage: no pre-soaking of seeds, no daily rinsing. (Except for large seeds – larger than a mung bean – which require pre-soaking)

Additionally, its eco-friendly design allows it to have a very low environmental impact, and its recyclable material offers a zero-waste end of life.

So does the Easygreen Light become outdated? Not at all! The 2 sprouters from the Easygreen brand have different uses, with the same goal: to make it easier for you to produce sprouted seeds at home. Here is a summary of the main differences:

Some additional notes:
The germination surface is 2x larger for the LIGHT sprouter compared to the SOL. When used to their maximum capacity, we therefore recommend the Light for higher consumption (a family, for example) and the Sol for more occasional consumption, a single person or a couple, for example.

Regarding substrate: it is not necessary in both sprouters (except for mucilaginous seeds). However, a coffee filter is recommended as a substrate for optimal germination in the Sol sprouter.

With the Easygreen Light, you have direct access to the seeds and easier handling thanks to the trays. With the Easygreen Sol, there is no direct access to the sprouted seeds; you will first need to remove the water reservoir.

Finally, the Sol is the only sprouter made of a recyclable biomaterial, without a drop of petroleum.
