Place the spelt berries (grains) in a bowl and cover with water. Refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to 24 hours to soak.
100 grams (½ cup) spelt berries
Once the spelt has soaked, drain and rinse well. Add to a blender with the water and salt and blend on high speed until very creamy. This takes a little longer than most other dairy-free milks.
1 litre (4 cups) water, Pinch sea salt
Strain through a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag. Discard the spelt pulp or use in bread or porridge recipes. Store your spelt milk in a sealed bottle or jar in the refrigerator for up to a week.
