An apparatus and method for restoring moisture to lint cotton in a cotton gin. The moisture level of lint cotton passing from a battery condenser to a bale press, and the rate of lint cotton passing from the battery condenser to the bale press are measured, and, based on those measurements and the desired moisture level of the lint cotton at the bale press, a precise amount of water is sprayed onto the lint cotton as it passes from the battery condenser to the bale press to bring the moisture level of the lint cotton at the bale press to that desired level.
