Referring to soaking them in water to rehyrate!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Anything soaked must be carefully monitored and kept in fresh water if theya re going to saok more than 8-12 hours!. They will start to go bad after a while and the warmer the weather or the house the quicker they start to ferment!. Generally there is not much benefit of soaking more than 8-12 hours!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

They should sprout eventually, but after the initial 24 hours they need to be rinsed in fresh water twice daily otherwise they start to pong a bit!. I'd be happy cooking them if they haven't been sitting around for more than 48 hours!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

they can;t be oversoaked, but they can ferment and go bad
depends on temperature and time
