I once inadvertently doubled up on the acids(butyric/caproic/citric and malic) and EA flavour in a hookbaits mix, ( answering phone etc, who says us blokes can't multitask?) mixed and rolled the baits fine, got around to boil them, thought the water had suddenly gone bright orange, went stir them and they had all dissolved! Just glad I hadn't invested time in rolling corkballs otherwise the kitchen would now be orange and smell of butyric and mulberry florentine 🙄

That’s what I’ve always done with NB. Added it to the air dried corkballs....and more added as required.

Well I’ve ever had a problem with binding and I have used high levels of N-butaric

Surely flavours and things like N-but will be fine adding afterwards anyway. As some will be boiled off

Feedstim's is very good. Best get hold of it through Baitwize now or the shipping costs will be astronomical!

4 drops per medium egg is what I use when making hook baits, although I've never combined with a pineapple flavour (way too obvious)... and I bet everyone who does, dyes the bait yellow... sorry, couldn't resist, but you know I'm right... anyway, it of course blends really well with all sorts of attractants. I always wear latex gloves when hand rolling hookbaits and keep the kitchen door open! Stinks the house out and then some. Carp love it though , so worth a moan from the missis now and again. Used it in most of my hook bait mixes for the last 25 years.

Too much acid denatures the proteins in the eggs

Echo what has been said. I had tried it at 10 drops in past, turns the eggs to water and difficult to bind.
Fished one water with said bait and watched one of the biggest residents just hung over the top of the bait for a few minutes with its barbels hung straight down, interested but wouldn’t touch it. All confidence blow. Amazing what goes off in the lake
