Preparing scalded pellets (5 posts / 1,599 views)

Anyone got any tips on how to prepare scalded pellets? I know in essence it's a case chucking them in a bucket and covering with boiling water but how long do I need to leave them? Is there a ratio of water to pellet that's recommended. Do I add any flavourings\supplements before or after they've soaked?

Thanks

A very small amount of boiling water goes a long way. Are you looking to ball it up?

Attractors/whatever in with the water so they soak into the pellets

Yes balling it up but also for use in a feeder for a bit of barbel fishing on the Trent

2.3mm skrettings coarse pellets, boiling water until you can see it coming through the pellets in the bucket, 5 mins, smash them up with inch by two. Lid back on, perfect.

Any additives, not that I use any, add with water
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
