Ronnie, if I became impatient with any seed variety that didn't begin to show signs of water uptake, by obviously expanding, I tried to put the seed under a warm water rinse again & keep that baggy in a warm spot. I found the top of the coffee maker to be about lukewarm, shortly after it was done brewing. Carefully test the brewing lid with your hand first, when you are certain it isn't too hot, first.
The kitchen may be warmest, if you are often cooking...
