Hi, has anyone used a plasterers electric mixer to make a boilie basemix with eggs/liquids, if so how's you get on and how much can it handle in one mix? Thanks.

i use a plasters mixing paddle in an electric drill done 3kg mixes sure it would do bigger

It will handle it just fine. I do 5k of dry mix plus Liquids and no problems. It is easier on you though if you go 3.5k dry mix. That will produce around 5k of paste.

I alway mix 24 eggs, liquids and basemix. That's comfortable. About 5kg ish.

Appreciate you taking the time to reply guys, thanks.

There's loads to chose from though, power varies, 850w -2380w, the most watts is the cheapest, £37 on bay!!! Which ones are you using?

Fireblade918, how powerful a drill are you using, and what sort of paddle, I had no idea there were so many😰?

only the strong ones will survive... speaking from experience, cheaper ones you can use for start but will have to get your hands dirty pretty soon if you dont want to burn it.

Hi. I have the one from Aldi. I make between 45-100kg a year and had it for 5-6 years and still going strong! I only £40 for it. I would definitely recommend one. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks everyone, I'll look out for an Aldi one, happy daze.
