So this thread started off
With a bad batch of gran fix
Then the tile guy got ripped a new a!.-hole for suggesting to use a mixing stick
Now we are mixing adhesive one day then using it the next
In cold and frosty conditions
Wow

Mix up a little bit of slow set addy & leave it outside & see how long that it takes to go off. You will be surprised.
Try it with rapid set also.
All drying times for addy are set at 20 degrees. What happens in the summer? Your rapid set will go off a lot quicker than it states on the bag so the exact opposite will happen in cold weather.

Wasn't warm here, if it was then I wouldn't have been able to use the addy as it would have gone off, set as it would have been warm enough to start curing.

So unless you slept in your van last night you wouldn't know if it was frosty or not?

why take the chance with stuff that's been lying all night
