Batch gone wrong?
Let's fix it.
Pick what happened to your batch. You'll see the likely cause and what to change next time.
Most likely cause
The mixture is too dry.
If the mix looks powdery and falls apart when you squeeze it, there isn't enough moisture to hold it together.
FIX 01Lightly mist, mix, and test again.
FIX 02Pack the mould more firmly.
FIX 03Work quickly before the mix dries.
