How long are you fermenting, and why?
I’m a brewer by trade. Scientifically, all you need is 24hrs. I soak/ferment for 24hrs then drain water into a separate bucket and add my supplement to the fermented grain then feed. 1/2 cup of drainage to my next bucket of dry grain and top with water just until the grain is covered.
All we are trying to do here is activate yeast and enzyme action. Any longer than 24 and the activated yeast and enzymes begin to deplete the nutritional value of the feed and produce alcohol.
I can’t make sense of what you guys are doing. Please explain.
