Good morning.
I have a recipe which is very similar to one I have done well on in the past.
But now I'm getting someone to roll it on machines where previously I have just cut it in blocks.
It is.
20% lt sardine and anchovy
10% krill
10% shrimp hydro or cpsp90
10% Clo
7% robin red
10% semolina
5% soya
10% Lamlac
7% sg60
5% kelp
3% beef liver hydro or edible shrimp powder bacarel
3% wpc80 or egg albumin
Liquids
30ml rr hydro
20ml shrimp hydro
20g belachan
Can anyone foresee issues with the roll?
I realise the solubles may be quite high.
Thanks Tom.

Have you ever rolled this mix yourself into round boilies and not cut into blocks or cubes ?
I would personally, before putting large mixes through a someone's rolling machine, try a small 1 egg trial mix myself.
Take you 1 kilo base mix, divide each ingredient amount by 7.
so your total mix is 142 grams, enough for a large 1 egg mix & some liquids.
That way, if it is a nice, rollable mix you are happy with, maybe then try a larger 3 or 4 egg mix. etc.
But if it doesn't roll, or it falls to bits, maybe too oily, or bouyant, your wastage is minimal.

Thank you Scaley and Dark,
That will be the first port of call as soon as I get all the ingredients together.

So I have made two trial mixes,
I have had to alter the liquid mix dropping to.
40ml shrimp hydro
20g belachan
10ml cod liver oil
The first mix I rolled with only egg which seemed better than when I added the hydros in the next mix which cracked slightly 🤔.
Thinking about halfing the amount of hydro even though it isn't particularly high.
Or sieving and blending the coarser ingredients.
Any advice please?
Thanks Tom.

You should be able to get away with the liquid package you defined by tuning the mix.
I would up the soya and semolina each by 5%. This would aid rolling your baits.

Thanks Ynnek.
The mix was quite sticky which I expected, so I let it rest.
But once boiled 20mm for 2 1/2 minutes seemed slightly dry, but still soft centred.
It seems very close.
Could increasing the oil help do you think?

It might...
Just consider that sticky mixes won't be a pleasure to roll on a machine

I've checked the previous mixes again and the one rolled with only egg is definitely a lot better, I obviously want to include the hydros etc.
I wonder if I included a small amount of egg powder 4% to the mix in addition to the eggs this would give me the consistency I'm looking for 🤔.

In your first post you said that you realised that solubles may be quite high. You have already solved your problem ! At 26 % , you're gonna have a sticky time ! Getting the level down to 15 to 20% will make things so much easier.
