Use of the wheat bag
Microwave: Heat the wheat bag for approx. 60 seconds at 600W (reduce the time for higher watt level) in a clean microwave.
Oven: Approx. 100°C for 10 minutes. Remains warm for about 30-40 minutes.
Freezer: Place the wheat bag in a freezer for 1-3 hours. Remains cold for about 30 minutes.
Moisturize the wheat bag often by placing a glass of water next to the wheat bag in a clean microwave for 1-2 minutes at 600W. Carry out this process before using the bag for the first time. Ensure that the wheat bag is at room temperature before the next warming or cooling session. The wheat bag should not be washed.
