I was thinking mainly for spring using nutta with 12mm switch mixed in, and then perhaps going on to mainly SLK with 12mm S7 mixed in.
Seem a good combo to you?

Can recommend Baitworks Atlantic Heat shelf life baits, only really started using mainstream baits last spring and after much consideration choose this bait.
As always it's about confidence so took it to the 6 lakes I intended to stalk and the fish gave a great reaction straight away, it's fairly soft straight from the bag, very spicy & low level smell.

Sunday evening. 9.10pm. Just tried to log into the dna site to take advantage of their online show deal which runs out tomorrow and I can't get on their site. Bloody typical.

Well I'm going to be very untrendy. I have used various shelflife/stabilised baits from Nash over the last ten-twelve years. Currently Scopex Squid and Tangerine Dream (sadly discontinued).
I have friends that have used Baitworks, Mainline, DNA, Sticky, Proper Carpbaits and others, they've never consistently out caught me, and I'm nothing special as an angler.

Good Shelf Lifes I have used since I got back into carp fishing are Sticky Baits Krill and Dynamite The Source. However I have seen several smaller brands that me and my boys are really pleased with and using at the moment.

Another vote for Baitworks
Started with the freezer baits and switched to the shelfies when freezer space became an issue. Used AH, MR and RM and would be confident with any - oh, and they're doing 20% discount at the moment...

Undoubtedly a great bait with a loyal following. But if he came to market today charging what he does he'd fall on his arse pretty quickly.
I liked it but I just couldn't justify having to buy huge amounts of bait to get it down to a price that Everyone else is charging when only buying ten kilos. And the pop ups are ****.
I know it's a show deal but I just got 10kg from DNA for £60 inc postage. How much have you got to buy from essential to get it at £6 a kilo. Something like 100kg would be my bet. I'm not prepared to have to store 100kg of bait to get sensible pricing.
On ten or twenty kilo orders it's gotta be 50% more expensive than most other baits and although I think it's a very good bait. I don't believe it catches 50% more fish than other baits.
