Thought i would try a 16oz mix, to try to round it off better.
4oz Lt94 (£15)
1oz Predigested fishmeal (£5)
1oz Kelp Powder (£3)
1oz Liver Powder (£18)
4oz CLO (5kg £11 +1kg spare)
2oz Vitamealo ((£6.50)
2oz Blood Powder (£7)
1oz Robin Red (£9)
£74.50 for 16kg basemix. (all prices are approx,and for kilogram amounts to make 16kg of basemix)
20ml LO30 (£10- 500ml)
4ml Banana flavour (£6- 100ml)
3 Drops Cassia EO (£6)
£22 for attractor package. (£96.50 + eggs and gas/electric for 20-22kg of finished bait)
Think this could be a good mix? Its all in whole amounts so it saves trying to find somewhere to sell exacting amounts. I'd personally be happy to make this up in kilos, to make 16kg of mix, Which would give say, 20-22kg of finished bait. The liver powder knocks hell out of the total cost, but seems a reasonable addition to the bait. Anyone making this base could change the liver for, betaine, shrimp powder, CSL powder, brewers yeast or whatever they wish to substitute it for. I would try and roll this as it stands, but if i found it to sticky i would add 1.5oz/kg Soya Flour and 2.5oz/kg of Semolina giving a 20oz/kg mix, and added cost would be very little. Any suggestions?

i would like to make my own boilies but i have no idea about the % you lot spek of haha and it all looks exepnsive outlay, how many kg of boilie would say the first mix make and how much is it likely to cost to make? cheers
I tend to buy around 70 quids worth of ingredients at a time which my mix gets me around 15-20kg depending on additives ect, i layout we use in grams in 1kg of dry mix which will end up with around 1.2-1.5kg depending on ingredients and other factors.

wouldnt think it needs supergold in there-plenty of nutrition and protein from the fish, bang the soya flour up to 150 and get a few % blood meal in there to aid rolling.

Krill, yeast, Liver powder, spices are all worthy inclusions and i'd say the kelp at 2.5% is a token gesture. I would double it at least. A lot of people would say 1.5% betaine is very high, i'm undecided myself i'm not even convinced betaine does a lot.
GLM is also worth considering though i'm still carrying out my own field testing to see if i can work out for myself weather it makes by bait more attractive to fish. The juries still out.
What about taste, i personally think its worth giving it some thought, eg. salty, sweet, savoury etc.

I'd say that bait is a good one and would serve you well but i wouldn't say it's outstanding.
