: Thanks for the help so far. I think I am looking for something that is rumored, so may or may not truly have an answer.
I know that wodui, or wet piling, is the once-secret step behind the manufacture of shu pu'er. What I am looking for is, since it is *wet* piling and manufacturers have admitted to adding water to the leaves or spraying water/mist on the leaves, are they leaving out the fact that it may not be just water they are adding? Are they putting something in the water to encourage bacterial/fungus growth? Like compost on speed... Can anyone confirm something is added or confirm that nothing is added? Anyone seen this wodui/wet piling in action?
