Start by adding 3 to 5 times more water than required to cement and concrete mixes. Now test two mixes: water mixed with concrete mix (cement, small and large aggregate), water, and water mixed with mortar (cement and small aggregate). This will demonstrate how many sizes of particles are needed in a concrete mix.
