[papercreters] Pulping feed sacks

First of all this is my first post,but I follow the messages closely and have learned a lot.I have a lot of brown paper feed sacks as I'm a horse trainer,and I would like to use these in papercrete blocks to build an apartment in a metal warehouse building that i have.Metal roof and concrete floor are alredy there so no weather isues.
My problem is pulping the feed sacks,they do not emulsify in water even when soaked a long time,Im useing the bucket and drill mixer,and would like to know if a tow mixer will work before I build one.I have made test blocks with this paper but it dosent break down,workes best when mixed with newspaper.HELP
Rick
