Default Making Wafters

Just got some top quality cork dust off ebay, i am looking to make wafters, anyone got any idea on the base mix to cork ratio, i was thinking 3 parts base mix to 1 part cork as the packet states to make pop ups use at a ratio of 2 parts mix to 1 part cork.

depends on the base mix and all will turn out different depending on what base mix you are using. i would suggest rolling a small batch of them at 2:1 (pop up level), see how far off you are and then gradually adjust your mix. or just try the 3:1 first they may well be bob on depends how fussy you are or how slow sinking or not you want them

Did them at 3:1, although lighter, they sank without the rig, using the B5 base mix, probably go with 2:1, see how it goes.
