Can someone with more bait knowledge than me tell me if you would use FF6 'AND' a liquid sweetner when knocking up a kg food base mix.
Ff6 is a natural protein sweetner so It's a bit confusing 'to me' whether I should include a liquid sweetner too or would it over do it.
Thanks in advance for help

Yes I think you should add sweetner
I have ff6 (as you know it)
It isn't actually that sweet and I think many of the fruit palatants need help on taste. Smells mega though
Some of the creams and vanillin's are harsh and bitter, some of the fruits taste soapy and sour so all need to be mixed with other elements to improve taste.

Just ordered some of this along with their betaine and squid stim and squid flavour.
If I was to add all three how many grams of the powders each for a 1 egg popup mix?

The same dosage levels they recommend on each product, for a 16oz mix. 1 level teaspoon for example.

They recommend 5 grams per kilo on the label.
Which is around 6 eggs. So 0.83grams for a 1 egg mix is that correct?
Cheers

I asked Mike about mixing Squid stim & Ff6, he doesn't recommend it, he said use one or the other.
Ff6 for pop ups no more than a gram of ff6 for a one egg mix

What's the thinking for not mixing the two?

Sometimes you can be overdosing an ingredient if it has some of the same in both. Or they can cancel each other out.
“Proper” Scopex has n-butyric in it for example, so no need to add more - you could end up repelling fish.

Yes that's what Mike said, they would cancel each other out
