Hi. Just wondering if anyone here has any experience with Kava instant powder. This appears to be a fairly new kava product that is different from the usual ground root powder found on most vendor sites. I purchased some from Nakamalathome.com who is purportedly a reputable vendor. Their instructions for the instant powder is mix a teaspoon into 1/2 cup of liquid, mix, then drink. The traditional straining method associated with ground root is not required with instant powder.

I am having very little luck with the batch I procured. Several uses over the past few days has elicited little to no effect at all, although the mouth numbing is present.

Is instant powder considered weaker than ground powder? Is something lost in the transition from root to instant powder?

Your responses are appreciated!
