Choose and prepare the material
Fresh frozen — harvested and frozen right away — delivers the best aroma profile, but the weight includes water, so the percentage looks low. Cured yields more as a percentage and less in freshness. They're different scales: don't mix the two in the same run or compare one against the other.
TipFreeze the material loose, not packed. A frozen block has to be broken up by hand, and breaking leaf sends green into the water.
