This workshop is an introduction to soybean fermentation. It will take you through the preparation of the soybeans or other legumes (most likely chickpeas), inoculation of the beans with the microbial culture and the subsequent harvesting and aging - your ferment should be ready for preparation and eating on the Day 3. We will focus on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempeh tempeh] cultured by ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizopus_oligosporus Rhizopus oligosporus]'' which is nice and easy opening for beginners.

The diversity of the ferments which can be prepared from soybeans (and other legumes) is truly amazing, depending on the cultures (microbes) being used and conditions/techniques applied (and of course the treatment of the soybeans). In this workshop we will go through the basic steps which will secure proper preparation of the chickpeas as a substrate for the microbes to inoculate it with. Optimal fermentation conditions will be discussed and devices making it easy to establish them suggested ([https://foodhackingbase.org/wiki/Experimental_Incubator Experimental Incubator] for example). We will be also harvesting/preparing the previously made tempeh and as usually tasting samples of the final products. The results of this workshop should be ready for tasting on Day 3 (48 hours of fermentation at 25-30°C is sufficient). We will do our best to provide the participants with adequate starter cultures for their experiments, at least for batch or two, you should however get your own starter, more info below.

This workshop is donation based no one turned away for lack of funds. If you can afford to donate, please do I [[User:Algoldor|Algoldor]] am investing around €1000 to be at 34c3 in "all the glory" and would be very happy to cover as much of this sum as possible, it helps to fund my future projects and living expenses too.
