Can you over soak corned beef?
Chef's answer
Soaking a brisket for too long can make it more difficult for the smoke to be infused in the meat, giving you not as much flavor as you could have. ... To prevent this and remove salt, we recommend switching out the water that your brisket is soaking in about two to three times over the course of the night.
