I've heard that cooking them in fresh water (throw out the soaking water) helps as well

Yes, you should definitely throw out the water you soaked the beans in. (Even better, change the water halfway through the soaking. The key point is to shift the equilibrium point by making sure that the dissolved oligosaccharides don't redeposit into the beans.)
