Re: [papercreters] QUANTITIES of WATER and CEMENT in PC

That's a common misconception about papercrete. The cement is not carried off with the water runoff. The paper acts as a filter and the cement stays in place. The runoff is pretty much clear water. I wouldn't drink it, but I surely would reuse it.

Hi Curtis,

One problem I can see, using this technique, is that much of the cement is carried off with the excess water.  I realize the water can be reused but it seems the original batch will be missing cement.  Adding a mechanical mixer and cement after excess water is removed might help with this.
