Jamisondaniel33 Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Started making my own shrimp food and I was wondering if anyone has tips on how to make it sink to the bottom better, and how to make it stay in a solid state longer rather than crumbling apart?

chappy6107 Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 when making the food you are somehow getting air trapped as it hardens. the crumbling comes from the material you are using for the binder. what are the ingredients you are using?

Jamisondaniel33 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 This last batch i used bee pollen and mixed veggies. What are some good binders? Thanks for the reply by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyzazz Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Shot you a PM that should help with powdered foods. If you're making food chips, I find that sticking everything in a blender to mix with water helps. Mix it a bit more watery than you think you need to and put it in a shallow pan or spread it out on foil/parchment paper/wax paper to dry. Having it really watery helps the air bubbles come to the surface. chappy6107 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reply by the way. bee pollen is a great binder. Wyzazz mention of making it more watery will help the air bubbles for sure.
