The same as rye berries.
I have heard 3 different amounts here they are.

1 to 1= 1 cup grain to 1 cup water
1 to 3/4ths
1 to 1/2 half.

I personaly take and filll a bowl with with grain and add water and a little gypsom, until it is level with grain and let soak for about 12 hours then rinse and drain for about 3 hours scoop in jars and pc at 15 psi for about 45 min a little longer or short doesn't seem to hurt it though.

I can tell you what I do:
I use 100g rye berries and 105 g water per pint jar if making spawn, 110 g water if fruiting directly from the the rye.
Note, that I?m talking about weight measures, not volume.
It?s allways a good idea to make a test batch with different amounts of water, to see how your combination of grain, pressure cooker and the cooking duration affects the moisture of the cooked grain.

When i am making rye, i use 1:1 volume and it works well, but when i tried it with the wheat berries, it was to wet.

I really would use rye, but i bought some wheat to experiment with and now i want to use of the extra, because i hate to waste things.

If you boil the wheat first, and then strain it well, the water content is just right.

Boil it until the first few grains start to split.
