Should You Soak Haylage?

No. Haylage should never be soaked as this may cause it to ferment.

Does soaking haylage remove sugar?

Yes. Needs to be a minimum of 16 hours. I do mine for 22 hours. Not recommended for more than 24 hours as may start to ferment!

How long can you soak haylage for?

12 hours is optimal, any less and the sugars arent soaked out to the max, any more and it starts to deteriorate in taste/structure (but more is better than less if you can't retrieve in 12 hours).
