Grain profile for zero absorption (rinsed rice hulls)?

I want to add rice hulls to my recipes but I prefer to rinse them before I use them. The result is the rice hulls should have zero impact on water absorption. Is there a way to create a grain profile that has rice hulls which don't alter the water calculations? I see moisture as an attribute but it is not editable for rice hulls. I could create new profile but I am not sure which attribute to change and what value to use. Maybe a grain with 1.00 potential and 100% moisture?
 
Just add it as a misc ingredient that's added into the mash. It won't be counted for water or gravity that way.

Doh. Why didn't I think of that? I will have to try that next time I log in. It will be nice to have it on my phone when at the local store buying grains.
