Prepare the Base:

Rinse your almonds in filtered water. Then, place them in a glass jar and fill with filtered water, making sure the water covers all the almonds. 
Let the solution sit in the fridge for 20 hours, then rinse almond under filtered water and discard old water. Fill the jar back with water making sure almonds are completely submerged.  
Place jar back in the fridge. Repeat Step in 10 hours.  This labor of love will take approximately 60 hours to complete. Almonds will double in size!

Note: The almonds will expand so make sure the almond's are completely covered with water by filling to the very top of the lid.
