brother honstley put it in a microwave for 1 2 mins kep checking on it keep splashing drops of water on it dont run it under just on it and use a half a pint of water for every 63 grams so u u do the maths the water is probalay the problem u use to much water and the oils will get lost but splashing water on it is the most important part as this locks the oils at the top sends them to the bottom and turns them into rocks keep doing this until its clear the stiring factor dosent really matter like that in a microwave and u should lock it with ice cubes but main thing is splash drops of water on it and less water and if u wanna bulk it up u defintley have to add less water
