I "Help it".

Try taking it apart, then watering it.

I found the first time I used an EE brick I just put the whole thing in the water expecting it to be ready in no time. Wrong! It took a good couple of hours before it was ready to use. The next time I used it I broke it up before I put it in the water and then continued as it soaked to break up the clumps. It still took longer than I expected, but the end result is worth the wait! The bricks are so dense and compact that it takes time for the water to penetrate and soak in.

Also, I found that warm water makes it go faster.
