Hydrating Instructions
Water matters; use distilled water to allow for larger beads, never use HOT water.
For more uniform sized beads avoid water deeper than 1.5 inches.
- Add 2-1/2 cups of distilled water or 3 cups of tap water to a large, flat container (a baking dish works well).
- Sprinkle 1 level teaspoon of water beads evenly around the dish (in the water).
- Wait 5 to 6 hours.
- To drain off excess water; pour water beads through a strainer or colander (colander/strainer holes MUST be much smaller than the hydrated water beads).
- It is best not to touch water beads as they hydrate.
- No need to rinse.
