All eggs sizes are different pal. Easier to make a 25egg mix for example with the liaisons and oils and add the powders to it.

Yep - all depends on the amount of liquid (egg size, hydros etc) that you use.

So 1kg of base mix would give 1.4-1.6kg of finished bait??

You will get 1.4 to 1.5 times the basemix

I hope someone can help me going to use the bm1 mix from post 77 and I wondered if anyone could tell me a rough estimation of how many kg of finished boilies say 10,20,30,40kg of dry mix will make obv I know there are variables such as liquids and eggs but just a rough estimation would be great

Smurf,
Thanks so much, new to it and just didn’t want to try and go at it, as I would not know if done rightly or wrongly.
Really appreciate your help.

I thought it was clear '...you can add your own soluble attractors such as Betaine, MSG, liver powder etc' but to clarify
these sort of things are normally added at a few % so that's what I meant, just a few %  They are normally listed by suppliers as Bait Additives.
Honestly you can use almost any flavour you like but go for quality not quantity! Lots of really good flavours available that attract/trigger carp to investigate and/or feed. What they smell like to you is almost irrelevant unless you intend to live on them whilst fishing 
At the moment I am playing around with a couple of flavours from BAF baits. My pond fish really home in on them. BAF don't have a huge range so I suspect that what they do sell are the 'better' ones that they have.
The bait will work without a flavour, many have gone this route.
I would change the Equivite for 1% Selenavite these days and add a good amount of a hydro liquid

Guys and girls.
I’m like so many new to this world of bait making.
This recipe sounds perfect for what I’m looking for, seems to have every base covered.
I would like a few questions answered if could ask the following :
When the author mentions soluables to be added at what quantity’s?
Flavours is there a really good match that people have used, and what amount to a kilo .
Thanks guys appreciate any help on above.
