-'''Eliminate shaker components.'''
-- steeper hopper sides
-- different hopper to press geometry
-- load with auger or conveyor
-- prepare a soil mix that performs better in the hopper
-'''Insulating CEB (lightweight too)'''
-Consider mixing as much as 70% perlite, styrofoam or other closed cell insulator into the soil mix. This could be tested with one or two blocks pressed with various insulating materials and soil mixes. Test for shrinkage, compression capacity and R Value. Perhaps a composite block, half compressed earth and insulated compressed earth, might make a better exterior wall because of thermal mass on the inside and insulation on the outside.
