I found a decent way to taste test, didn't make it harsh, either. You'll have to hang dry for four or five days first - (you could try it with fresh cut - might work, I haven't tried) - but after that point, take a small bud, cut it into small pieces. Place on a saucer, put the saucer on the hotplate for your coffee pot. Gently turn bud pieces approx. every five minutes until dry. Depending on the size and moisture level, it takes anywhere from ten minutes to half an hour.
