That being a semi dry screed mix for tamping down is, IMO is the most difficult mix of all .
Concrete is a breeze in comparison.
It was the mixing principle for the OP, but yes screed is different

That is A LOT of mixing! I will take your word for it! LolYes, add water keeping a little back then small amount of ballast which scours the drum then cement and when well mixed to slurry add rest of ballast and rest of water as required.
I have mixed hundreds of tons of compo,concrete,etc and this is by far and away the best way for a consistant mix in the shortest times that I have found over 60 odd years of mixing..never too old to learn though if anyone comes up with anything better
