After three to five sheets, you'll find that your paper is getting thin and maybe being a brat about releasing from the screen. Time to add more pulp. This batch is white with some brown paper bag thrown in.

I notice that you are not emptying your pan - How do you know how much pulp to add at this point. I beleive the previous ratio was 3 blenders of pulp to 1 blender of water, but now that ratio is thrown off because you have made paper.

Are you doing it by feel?

Yes, by feel. Emptying the vat is wasteful, you lose both water and pulp. You will see as you go that there is a system or pattern to your papermaking, after 3 or four or however many sheets, you need to add a blender of pulp. If just depends on how you're doing it, what kind of paper (thick, thin, rough, etc) you're making and how you work.
