Hi Ray
Better buy one of your own then? If 'ers breaks see if she comes cap-in-hand to borrow yours then  I have an old liquidiser which is fine for small quantities, and I don't even have to wash it out. Use it for cereals too. paul4 |

Ray,
If you're intenting to use them for a method mix then there is no need to crush them, just scald them with boiling water 15mins or so before you go fishing. I usually 2/3 cover them with boiling water, leave for about 10mins and then mix them with an old wooden spoon, job done. I say 15mins before you go because once scalded down like this they do not keep for more than a couple of days. Cheers Paul |

Hi all,
Cover them in boiling water, leave overnight to absorb the water, add the same amount of dry pellets, leave overnight again, go fishing. Freeze those you don't use when you get back and use again and again ! Not my recipie/idea I might add, just something I picked up from a fellow BFW'er ! Cheers Paul M......... P.S. This can be loose fed, balled in (groundbait style), used in an open end or moulded around a lead/method feeder ! |
