Boilie rollers,

Have you noticed issues when rolling your boilies in a room with a temperature of 55F/13C or below? I roll mine in my basement but with the extreme cold we have been having here in NY that's what my basement is sitting at, its normally 60F/16C+. I rolled a mix I have been using for 20+ years, which normally rolls great, but this time I was having issues with the boilies "donutting". I dropped to smaller nozzles until I was making dumbells, only way I could stop the "donutting". Any thoughts on this?

Can only be the cold has stiffened the mix up so harder to squeeze out, under more pressure so expanding more as it exits the gun.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
