Root chips soak time

As an experiment I tried soaking 5 Tlbs. of my Maui Medicinal kava chips overnight. I cannot believe the potency increase. Wowee-wow-wow!!! I did this after hypothesizing this might make the dried, hard chips easier to chew. As it turns out after soaking for what ended up being 15hrs I didn't even need to chew them. The chips broke down after a brief blending to a near micronized pulp. It did, however, increase the horrible taste exponentially. It tastes like a mouthful of very bad moldy grass. It makes me gag but goddam is it stronger! I'm honestly afraid of slamming more than 1 full cup as it does impair to the point where driving would not be a smart thing to attempt.

The first Tbl spoon is the worst. After that your mouth is so numb you can't taste anything. Soaking the chips is a far, far better route to go. I can honestly say slamming an entire cup of kava using MM's chips which have soaked for 12+ hrs would make any person very sedated.
