Re: [RC] beet pulp solution - Beth LeggieriOr you can use Karen Chaton's great system: buy a mesh waste basket from the Dollar Store, set it inside your bucket, put beet pulp inside waste basket, soak, then lift mesh waste basket with soaked beet pulp leaving the soak water behind in the bucket.

Set up a double bucket system by drilling small holes in a bucket that will just slide into another bucket. Soak beet pulp as usual. Pull inner bucket out and leave all the water (with dissolved sugar in it) in the outer bucket. Basically a colander system. You can even further rinse the beet pulp in the inner bucket if you feel it is necessary. Doesn’t take any extra time to do this in the feeding routine and you can add water to your final mix if you want it to be “slurpier” when fed. Works like a charm! Kathleen Ferguson
