Like any additive you addi it til the blend will not stay together in a sample from your clenched fist which is the dangled between you index finger and thumb and shaken as you would a salt shaker.

They luck fluffy but they have some heft to them.<br>
<br>
The three in the photo (see attachment) weigh about 94 grams. Their<br>
diameter is about 6cm. All three stacked up were about 8cm tall. So<br>
their density is about 94g / (pi * (6cm / 2)^2 * 8cm) ~ .4g/cm^3.<br>
(Check my math.)<br>
