Pro Tip: Due to the size of this block, it is best to hydrate it in a large wheelbarrow or a heavy-duty storage tub. Add approximately 20–25 liters of water and allow it to sit for 30 minutes. If you don't need the full 70L at once, you can saw the dry block into smaller sections to hydrate as needed.
