pre-soaking particles(hemp)

when pre soaking hemp do u soak it in cold or boiling water? :confused:

You can soak in either, hot water will clean the hemp up a bit but cold is fine. This is the kinder way to cook hemp.

Hemp does not need to be soaked so if you want to speed things up get down the boot fair and buy yourself a Prestige pressure cooker, half fill with hemp - top up with water - stir it all in to wet it all then bring up to pressure using the heaviest weight. When the cooking weight lifts take off the heat (carefully) and you'll have split hemp.

Get two pressure cookers and you can be heating one while you let the other de-presurise.

I used to get a system going and it was no distraction to cook a few gallons while bait rolling. If you cook it about three days before a trip it will be nice and milky when you use it. This method is great for French trips etc as you keep the weight down. Its worth buying new seals for the cooker !

Dont know if you've come across it yet but some people (mainly the female of our species) seems to develop very bad headaces when hemp is being boiled, but thats another problem !!!
