Why boil boilers instead of baking them, you would less much less ingredients and therefore make them better.

Because then they would be called 'bakies', which just sounds daft.

Then call them boilies but baked lol, and no they won't float, floating will be down to the density and transparency of ingredients used ie oranges and apples float but if you put holes in them they will sink.

I can assure you that baits that have been boiled sink, and you bake exactly the same baits and they float

baking removes moisture from the object.

boiling baits its just to greater a skin to leave a soft centre.

and they will float.....

Hmmmm but yous are forgetting one major thing, density and total weight.

Newton's law would strongly disagree.

Also baking doesn't typically (at low heat) remove a lot of moisture. Ie slow cooker meat vs high short durations of same meat and variables.

Newton or not, baking boilies makes the float usually.

you cant use a slow cooker as an example.
its in an environment with steam from the cooking.
take a biscuit for example due to a similarity of ingredients. if you drop that in a cold glass of milk it will float.

also if you already have the counter to all arguments against boiling bait why bother asking the question?
roll your base mix and wack it in the oven. Id put my house on a boiled bait with a soft paste centre out catching it.

The question is to find new reasons ie research.

I can make a boilie float or sink, most on here can aswell.

The difference is in the ingredients ie Density, Transparency.

Some ingredients take on more water others don't, so boiling them will make them sink and baking them will mean they float, but this doesn't mean baking all boilie recipes will make them float.

It is to do with density and transparency of ingredients.

A bait buff will understand.

are you a bait buff?
I strongly believe you sir are not going to win any arguments on this topic.

there is a reason we have been boiling bait for the past 50 years and not baking them.

I'm sorry if I sounded abit ??? I just feel that there is a much better alternative to boiling especially from a nutritional and attractive point of view.

If you lose say 30% from boiling and only 5% from baking and they let's just say for this Hypothetical scenario both float if needed or sink if needed, then why don't people or companies do this instead of boiling?

Is it to reduce time ?
