- 240 g plus 335 g buttermilk, divided
- 100 g eggs (2 large eggs)
- 56 g unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly

Process wheat berries, sugar, and salt in blender on high speed until ground as fine as possible, about 3 minutes. Transfer mixture to bowl. Add 240 grams buttermilk to blender and pour wheat berry mixture on top. Blend on high speed, adding additional buttermilk and changing speed as necessary to maintain vortex, until mixture is thick and has only small lumps, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, melted butter, and any remaining buttermilk and continue to blend until fully incorporated, about 30 seconds longer.
