Frozen ckay

Had 50 lbs of Laguna cone 5 freeze on me. When it thawed there is excess moisture in the bags. like I could pour it out. Need help/answers. Where did all the water come from? Is it still good? What do I do with the excess water?



Thanks in advance


As a college student, i tend to carry alot of clay around in my car, due to making work at school and at my home. During the cold months my clay also freezes occasionally. All you have to do is re-wedge it really well so it gets consistent throughout. Worked fine for me after doing so.

Don't chuck the loose water away; you'll need to re-mix it with the clay. I mop it up with old towels and then wrap them around the clay and leave for a week or two inside the original bags before re-wedging. That works for me.
