Questions anglers ask
What is a basic boilie recipe?
A simple base is about half fishmeal or birdfood, a quarter semolina and a quarter soya or milk protein, bound with around five to eight eggs per kilo of dry mix. Build it here and the calculator shows whether it will bind and roll.
How do you make a base mix for boilies?
Pick a protein source, a binder such as semolina or wheat gluten, and a carrier. Keep the percentages summing to 100 % of the dry mix, then check binding and fat before you add liquids.
Is it cheaper to make your own boilies?
Usually, once you buy ingredients in bulk. Add your own prices after saving the recipe to see the real cost per kilo.
How many eggs per kilo of boilie mix?
Most mixes need five to eight medium eggs per kilo of dry mix, depending on how much the ingredients absorb. The calculator flags liquid loads that are too high.
