Compared to the dried form in tablets and powders, which have a strong flavour of their own, fresh spirulina has a mild, fresh taste that can be added to any dish. They also do not clump together in dishes, as is often the case with spirulina powder.
Then there are the ecological benefits: With fresh algae from your windowsill, you are helping to minimise plastic packaging, significantly shorten transport routes and therefore reduce CO2 emissions - for life! In addition, several studies have now shown that dried products often don't contain what they say on the label - a problem you won't have with your own farm - hence our motto: You grow it, you know it.

In its pure form, fresh spirulina has a flavour of its own, similar to biting into a lettuce leaf. However, as soon as the algae is stirred into any food, you no longer taste anything.

When harvesting, you can filter your culture directly into the second farm jar, so that at every harvest (i.e. about every 10 days) the jar is changed. The used glass can then simply be rinsed out or even put in the dishwasher and used fresh for the next harvest. With this rhythm, contamination should not occur.

Due to the self-sufficiency of the farm, it works wherever there is enough light for the algae. However, the live culture should always be transported carefully to avoid unnecessary stress on the cells.
