Adam, Be
careful with too much of a difference in water temperature and greens
temperature. If it is a lot, the greens can suck up contaminants like e.coli
very readily. If you have already done a third party audit, then you
would be setup to handle that situation and the contamination problem of
reusing the water (an ultra violet light is good for disinfecting water as well
as Oxidate or hydrogen peroxide). If not, see what the larger
producers are doing to meet their third party audits in that area. As
far as bags, I have customers who swear both ways (bags with holes and bags
without). I personally like them without, but the greens must be very
dry. I have used a washing machine also and know large operators that use
huge spinners three times the size of a washing machine. Match the
product with the container. Thyme and oregano I put in bags with holes
and rosemary and sage go in bags with no holes. Hope this helps. Maury Sustainable agriculture in southern New Jersey From:
