Welcome to the forums!!!
It kinda depends on what you want to use it for. Basically, the first thing you want to do is unwrap it and soak it in water. Use a small bucket and put about a quart of water on a brick. It will soak the water up amazingly fast, expand and loosen up into a fine soil/mulch kinda stuff. Assuming your bricks are the same size as my bricks, two of them will nicely yield about a 5-gallon bucket.
Massproducer, a member of the forum here, has prepared an excellant thread on using coir for "hempy buckets". Read it here: hXXp://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30181 (Change the "hXXP" to "http")
Umbra - Yeah, twice. Good one!!!
