After getting a batch at my local health food store with only 25% germination rate and no other place locally that sells them, I got this larger than I needed bag on Amazon. Wow! They are so fresh and fabulous with probably a 99.5%+ germination rate. Only very, very few groats were un-sprouted and probably just due to mechanical damage. I opened the bag and looked at the groats when I got them and I knew they would get great. They have nice color and are so clean and nice, all in excellent and unbroken/cracked condition. I'm glad I got this big bag and have been sprouting and using them constantly in dehydrated snacks. In the warm Florida summer they are sprouted and ready for use in 2 full days even being sprouted in air conditioned conditions. The bag has a good zipper closure. As long as the price stays good, these are the buckwheat groats I'll buy on Amazon, rather than make a 2 hour round trip to the major grocery store chain that carries them.

Great groats, easy to prepare, tastes great. Only issue, please rinse before you cook...well, I prefer it that way; there's a chalky tastes that's not palatable to me. I use this for breakfast every morning, my gut has never felt better...switching from some type of wheat for breakfast to buckwheat is the best thing ever. Plus, you can spice it up with the same ingredients used in oatmeal, grits, etc.

Sprouts easily and tastes great. To sprout I place about 3 cups in a mesh nut bag and rinse them in the bag. Then I let them soak for a day or so in water, rinsing them every 8 hours or more. Then I rinse again and hang them up, placing a bowl underneath to catch the water. I rinse them every so often until they sprout. Then I dehydrate them for longer storage.

Nice and fresh. These sprout wonderfully. To sprout hulled buckwheat be sure to pre-soak only a short while (I do about 20 minutes) and rinse well, otherwise you'll start with a mucilaginous mess which will inhibit any sprouting.

Nice, large supply. I immediately drop the package in the freezer for a week just in case of weevils like I've found in Bob's bags, and this flattens out nicely for convenient storage - not bulky. The groats seem better quality, and I have no complaints.

Love buckwheat and product tastes yummy. Like to cook it on its own or add to a vegetable stew and make it hearty. Buckwheat is not wheat, actually comes from a seed family, so good for those with gluten intolerance. I will be reviewing a whole bunch of their products on my youtube channel in 2017, so look for that soon. My youtube channel name is: TheRawsomeVeganGal

This buckwheat is excellent! Finally a perfectly delicious, organic, non-roasted product that doesn't turn into mush during cooking! I grew up in Eastern Europe and "grechnevaya kasha", which is cooked roasted buckwheat groats, was my favorite hot cereal (i know i am not alone on that). In this country for many years i was completely unsuccessful in finding an American equivalent to that European buckwheat i knew and loved (the two main problems with the buckwheat grown here were complete lack of flavor and immediate disintegration of the grain on contact with water). So i had to buy my "grechka" in Russian stores, whenever i could find those; and what is sold there, although usually delicious, still is not organic (in fact you can never be sure of how it was grown) and it is, of course, roasted, which means some of the nutrients in this champion of all super grains get destroyed. ...Well, to keep the long story short. If you are an Eastern Slav with love for buckwheat built into your genes, but also happened to be a health nut and a natural food connoisseur you may want to try this buckwheat. I am not sure if you will be ready to completely give up your roasted groats just yet, but, i swear, this product comes incredibly close in flavor and deliciousness and is identical in texture. Definitely for my buckwheat pre-summer detox week I am using exclusively Anthony's organic raw buckwheat. So glad i finally found what i was looking for!

I soak them a few hours, place them in colander and voila - tender sprouts within 24-48 hours that I eat right right off of the screen.

Another huge bargain! After failing to find this much-needed vegan product in stores, I turned to my trusty friend, Amazon, and was not disappointed. Highly recommend ALL Anthony's Goods products!

I tried different things from this raw buckwheat, and the only thing that I liked was this Gluten-Free vegan bread which will be our breakfast from now on! I also tried fermented bread, also delicious. And want to sprout them to see what else I can do. I add apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp per 1 cup of water when soaking overnight, it's said to break down phytase. (Not a scientist or nutritionist, so please don't ask why)))) So far I'm very happy with this raw buckwheat.
