        <![CDATA[ Kind of follows on from the Supermilk discussion but worthy of a new thread...

How big is a drop?  I am sure that the drops which come out of most essential oil bottles when bought from health suppliers are a whole lot smaller than for example the drops which come out of a nutrabaits pipette.

Also what levels would you prefer?  I am going on one (small?) drop per egg, but still think I can go lower and still get the result I am after?

			<description><![CDATA[ Andy,<br>
For carp used only an EO (or mixture of two) and maybe sweetener in 'pure' milks. People that I know using or have used milks for barbel have gone along broadly similar lines as well. Oh forgot some oil as well - this often aids bait handling as well.<br>
<br>
I've had a look at some more EO's and drop size and results are pretty similar for the five EO's tested. I obtained a range of 35 to 45 drops to 1ml all from a common pipette.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
Bob<br> ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Without getting too scientific then the surface tension of the liquid, temperature and other factors will effect the actual drop volume/weight.<br>
<br>
For example, the dropping pipettes that I use for bait making (1.0ml in graduations of 0.01ml) will dispense 20 drops of water to the ml (0.05ml per drop) at room temperature - let's say 20C.<br>
For Black Pepper Essential Oil then it's almost twice this amount of 'drops' from the same pipette - so 0.025ml/drop.<br>
Using a Nutrabaits dropper... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I seem to remember from way back in the dark ages when I went to school that drop size is related to viscosity and specific gravity; it was a long time ago though.

			<description><![CDATA[ The droppers that come with, say, nutrabaits essential oils (the starndard brown chemist droppers) do seem to vary in size its true.  One drop could be a full drop, but the next one with be half a bubble!<br>
I use these large clear plastic ones from my local tackle shop, think JB makes them.  Before i put the drops in with the eggs i squeeze a bit out first (like a syringe ) and put the 2 or 3 required 'drips' in, this way they are consistent. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Cheers Sandy, I also use large eggs...   The confusing point is the fact that drop sizes seem different!  Also I use two EOs in a 3:1 ratio, so at the moment always making a 4 large egg mix, which really is too much so need to look at changing that!<br>

			<description><![CDATA[ Andy,<br>
Depends on the size of the egg to me.  I use fresh free range large eggs, which are almost twice the size of a medium suermarket egg!<br>
<br>
This can completely throw you, but use the extra large eggs as a gauge. ]]></description>
