**Episode 19 of The Maker & the Mix: Strength in Numbers: The Alpha Advantage & Beyond

Welcome to an episode that is all about strength and speed. Join Jeff and Caleb as they unravel the game-changing capabilities of Alpha Polymer in Episode 19 of The Maker and the Mix.

Imagine increasing the strength of your CTS Rapidset CementAll by 45% or doubling the flexural strength in your Portland Cement-based mix - all in just 24 hours! These aren't mere hypotheses; Jeff showcases these dramatic results achieved through the use of Alpha Polymer.

But our discussion isn't confined to the numbers; we explore the realm of concrete craft in-depth, examining the impact of powerful plasticizers and effective curing practices. By sharing anecdotal experiences and concrete facts (pun intended!), we aim to equip you, our listeners, with invaluable insights that could help elevate your craft.

Amidst these enlightening discussions, we couldn't help but address a rather humorous rumor that has been circulating in our industry. Some folks believe that Caleb's father, a retired judge, is the financial backbone supporting Caleb's stake in The Concrete Countertop Institute. We find the idea quite amusing and take it in stride, remaining focused on our mission to innovate and educate in the world of concrete crafting.

Sadly, there won't be an episode of the podcast next week as we'll be fully engaged with a course at Caleb's workshop. But don't worry, we've got more exciting episodes lined up for your learning pleasure!
