I used 2C of soaked beans, and the end producet was like soup. I'd have preferred thicker (I used 6C water). If I make, I'd start with 3C of water. I did overnight on "low", and the cilantro floated to the top and burned. Next time I'll add cilantro at or near the end. Tastes good; may drain though. - 6/20/13
