  • What:

Seed sprouter made with Ikea Korken jar. Reusable and washable - for that, I'd suggest using PETG - I made my first one with PLA and I still use it to this day - it got a bit deformed in the dishwasher, but who cares - it still works. 

  • Why:

Crazy invention made, so I can appreciate sandwiches with fresh reddish sprouts whenever I want (+/- few days until a new batch is ready)

  • How:
  1. Take off the original glass lid, and replace it with a printed one. 
  2. Put seeds inside.
  3. Rinse seeds/sprouts with cold water 1-2 times daily and put the jar on the original glass lid so excess water can drip freely. 
  • Disclaimer:

Apparently, Korken jars are not the same all around the world. This design should fit a jar where external “neck” diameter = 97mm

Slot for that locking wire in the glass lid = 86mm

Mine Korken jar (bought in Poland) was made in Germany
