There's a very good chance it's the soft stuff that hasn't been baked

I suspect it issoft too. I'll substitute pumice into my mix once my stash of Kleensorb diatomite is used up.

Kleensorb is available again, from the Chalkmine company. I've bought a few bags just last month, the particle size is 3-4mm, and I'm very happy with the quality. Bit tough getting supplies though...only two places stocking it in Qld for the moment.
