Getting the right mix

Getting together all the solid ingredients was apparently easy until I added the water and the initial blatant failure revealed the utter mistake of trusting a random g##gle search... The proportion was completely wrong!



I splashed water everywhere... but luckily due to good preparation procedures the walls were already protected. Most likely this is not going to be a problem.



 From a close look... it's completely loose!

 It's not holding together!

Where is the mistake???

Trusting a silly 
g##gle search!!! Whatever they were writing about, the weight of a volume of lime was totally wrong... I just placed a volume unit (1 liter) of lime stone on an old scale and I got it right!
Scooping up that first bucket was pretty easy... as well as correcting all the others.

 Now it looks completely different!

 It's sticking together!  

Keep going this way then...
