Prepare Mung Beans - how long to soak for sprouting ?

Hello,

How long should I soak the mung beans in water for sprouting ? How do I know when beans are ready to be served ?

The soaking of mung beans for sprouting may depends on the size of beans. I am buying the smaller ones and it usually takes up to 3 days to prepare.

First, I soak them in the water for 24 hours. I recommend to change the water after 12 hours.

Then I pour out the water and I wash the beans every 12 hours. Smaller mung beans that are ready serve are soft and they have sprouts around 1.5 centimeter long.
