Is 5-10 minutes in blender really make a difference? I think more than a minute on high with a good blender is useless. What you think?
I don't use this method but here is a thread on it. You can find more by searching.

The Manoan prep uses three cycles of one minute each, seems to work well. And for my krunk prep I only do 30 seconds per wash.
The one time I tried a full 4 minute blend then strain, the kava was too strong, IMO, in part because it had way too much particles in it. I think what we want is to shatter the particles a bit to release the kavalactones and leave a lot of the lumber in the makas, not break all particles so fine you drink them all.
