Robert,

Have you ever tried cleaning your aroid seeds in a blender? Fill it half
full of water, toss in the seeds, and give it a few pulses. Pour it out
through a strainer, and spread the remaining seeds and skins on a towel.
Let dry, and the seeds are easily separated from the 'chaff'.

Works like a charm, with no damage whatsoever to the seeds. I've only
tried it with arisaemas, but it should work with most aroids.

I have memories of trying to clean arisaema seeds in a backwater hotel
in Yunnan many years ago. My hands were painful for days afterwards.
Something to do with the oxalate crystals. Tony A was there...
