So,
1. What ration of dust to base mix?
2. Do you need to add anything else or does it roll ok just base mix and dust?
3. Do you increase flavour levels to compensate for the cork soaking in the liquids?>
Any advice appreciated.

I got some cork dust off ebay, tried different ratio's to make popups, i ended up with a stodgy mix that wouldnt bind, was using the B5 mix but didnt sieve it, maybe that was the problem? i think the pack recommended 2 parts base mix to 1 part dust but that didn't work, i think there are different density's of cork and with different moisture levels, i went through 4- 1 egg mixes until i gave up and went to using poly balls.
