I ran into the problem of mine not holding, only because it was not micronized and pure. What i did to get it to hold was to let it sit for a while and separate. The oil separated and the whinny turned back into powder form. After letting it sit for several days to weeks at a time, i then re-heated and added a bit more bb and it held fine. It came out very smooth with extremely minimal pip. I have done this process with about 50 ml of finish product and has come out great. Each time i made a batch with this particular raw, i had to go through this process in order for it to hold. I did use this exact recipe.
