Not really, at least monster particle marketing is spot on to cause blind loyalty. Monster particle is the bottom of the pile when it comes to qaulity. Cook your own or pick a better company.

Granted poor example but for tigers, maize, and other seeds that still need a boil. Saves time and grief.

I haven't had an issue with it floating, maybe it was a bad batch. I do get the impression that people jump on the bandwagon of hating them even if people haven't used their products.

Unfortunately it is a from me for Monster as well....10k of hemp went in the bin, hardly any had even split and their maize smelled of baby sick.....never again.

Carp Particles UK are the best i have used...

They are one and the same now I think? I'm sure Monster bought them a while ago

20kg frozen hemp for £20.00 sounds good, I have ordered some but don't know what the quality is like yet.

I got some recently - Hemp / Maize / Tiger mix and to be fair it was spot on. All cooked properly - hemp all split - nothing floated.
Only downside for me is that it is all drained and like people have said if you cook yourself you get all the lovely juice to use / add to a mix etc.

Between myself and friends we've had about 120kg over the last year from them. Never a bad batch.
The fact they use The smaller French hemp is better in my opinion. Looks a lot more like the tiny water snails in a lake for sure.

Ive been using monster particles a couple of years after i lost my hemp supplier. Ive only bought dry particles not the cooked stuff.
The hemp is superb. I'm still using whats left of last years and its still opening really well after a 24 hour soak and 20 minutes boil. Also been using their maples and tares. Spot on gear and decent price.
My mate orders there hemp and maizes prepared mixes and rates it very highly
Recently reordered all the above. Recommended.

I use carp particles uk. I like their dark mix. Seems to work well where I fish.
Are you sure?
