Boiling's a pain, but it works. I just let mine soak in a bucket for a week. Less hassle, same result.
Yeah, soaking's the way to go. Who's got time to boil wood, right?

Another thing to consider is the type of driftwood. Mopani tends to leach more tannins than Malaysian. What kind are you using?

It's Mopani. I'll try soaking it next time. Appreciate all the help.
