Chocolate Malt Concentrate
Price range: £2.21 through £124.16 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageThis chocolate malt flavour provides a soft/creamy chocolate aroma .
Recommended inclusion levels are 6-10ml per kg base mix. When using a new flavour we always advise creating a small batch of baits and starting with the lower recommended level, you can then add more going forward until you achieve your desired aroma.
For high attract pop ups & wafters we recommend adding up to 5 ml per 1 egg mix, some flavours are stronger than others so don’t be afraid to experiment.
When adding to your own glugs & liquids we recommend adding at 2% – 5% (5ml – 12ml flavour – 250ml glug), again when using a new flavour we always advise starting with the lower recommended level, you can then add more going forward until you achieve your desired aroma.
To boost your hook baits, you can use our PVA friendly Betaine liquid, DMPT liquid or Glycerine (all found under liquid foods) to dilute your chosen flavour down. Some anglers like to boost their hook baits with neat flavour whilst some like to dilute the strength down. We recommend adding the flavour at 5% (12ml flavour – 250ml booster liquid). This % can always be increased until you achieve your chosen strength. You can also add a wide variety of liquid foods etc adding more attraction to your unique booster.
All our concentrated flavours are of the highest grade/quality available on the market. As with all concentrated flavours and liquids, use in a well ventilated area and always wear safety glasses.
This is a PG based flavour which has been created with nature identical flavourings and has been carefully created to give a very appetising flavour as well as the aroma (smell), some flavours out there are mainly based on aroma chemicals (smell), with the flavour not given much thought.

12mm Pop Ups
£7.07 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageWe are pleased to offer a premium range of hookbaits, meticulously developed through extensive behind-the-scenes efforts in formulation. Our team has dedicated considerable time and expertise to carefully craft each flavour enhancer and feed stimulant liquid pack.
Our in-house flavour enhancers are formulated using a blend of high-quality, food-grade, and feed-safe ingredients, including oleoresins, essential oils, premium liquid hydrolysates, sweeteners, NHDC sweetener, and our proprietary soluble amino acid stimulant. These formulations are designed to be highly attractive and effective.
All our flavours are based on taste rather than aroma. Flavours formulated based on aroma utilise completely different chemicals, but our focus remains on creating flavours that taste pleasant rather than just smelling strong. While personal preferences vary, this approach reflects our commitment to delivering safe and effective products.
In addition, we exclusively offer flavours that are feed-safe, ensuring their suitability for inclusion in animal feeds and other applications. Our flavour house adhere’s strictly to regulatory standards, which does require removing certain chemicals from time to time, these chemicals are removed from the food & feed register for a reason. We follow the experts guidance and prioritise safety for both humans and aquatic life.
Our hookbaits undergo an intensive, three-stage, high-pressure vacuum infusion process. We believe this method is the only way to truly infuse liquids deep into the core of each bait:
- First stage: Infusion with our in-house amino acid, feed-inducing stimulant
- Second stage: Infusion with a mixture of sweeteners and betaine anhydrous liquid
- Third stage: Infusion with our premium-grade, in-house flavour enhancers
These baits continuously release food signals from the liquid foods and stimulants, offering extended attraction, while also generating an investigation signal via pH change from one of our infused liquids.
We also provide our in-house 30ml flavour enhancers, ideal for boosting all types of baits.
Product features:
- 12mm pop-up
- Ultra buoyant
- 3-stage high-pressure vacuum infusion process

Description
Overview
We are delighted to offer you our premium range of match wafters. Our team has dedicated extensive effort behind the scenes to carefully formulate each flavour enhancer and feed stimulant liquid pack, ensuring exceptional quality and performance.
Our in-house flavour enhancers are meticulously crafted using a blend of food-grade and feed-safe ingredients, including oleoresins, essential oils, premium liquid hydrolysates, sweeteners, NHDC sweetener, and our proprietary soluble amino acid stimulant. All our flavours are designed based on taste rather than aroma. Flavour formulations based on scent are created with entirely different chemical compounds, but our focus has always been on delivering flavours that taste pleasant rather than simply smell strong. This is a personal preference, and we stand by our approach.
Moreover, we only produce flavours that are feed-safe. All our products can be included safely in animal feed (free offerings). Our flavour house adhere’s strictly to regulatory standards, which does require removing certain chemicals from time to time, these chemicals are removed from the food & feed register for a reason. We follow the experts guidance and prioritise safety for both humans and aquatic life.
Our hook baits undergo a proprietary, in-house, three-stage, high-pressure vacuum infusion process. We believe this method is the only way to deeply infuse liquids into every core of each bait:
These baits are designed to release food signals through the liquid foods and stimulants for an extended period, thanks to our high-quality formulations, as well as trigger a pH shift signal from one of our infused liquids.
We also offer our in-house 30ml flavour enhancers, ideal for boosting all types of baits.

AABaits Fishmeal Pop Up Mix
AABaits Pop-Up Mix
Our AABaits Fishmeal Pop-Up Mix has been refined to improve handling and make rolling easier, while adding slightly more structure to the core. It now matches the buoyancy of the discontinued Ultra Buoyant Fishmeal Pop-Up Mix.
This mix can be used with either water or liquid egg, alongside bait preservative. When using water and bait preservative, the finished baits will still be sufficiently firm. For those who prefer a harder finish, using liquid egg with bait preservative will increase firmness slightly compared to water.
For best results, always weigh your liquids (egg or water) and powders accurately. Pop-up mixes require precise measurements, so we recommend using scales accurate to at least 0.1g to ensure consistency.
This mix produces extremely buoyant hook baits that will remain popped up for days. In our tank tests, 12mm pop-ups tied to a thinking anglers size 4 curved shank hook with a micro ring bait swivel remained buoyant for over 7 days (testing was stopped at that point).This mix is also ideal for incorporating your own base mixes. Thanks to its high buoyancy, it allows a high inclusion rate of base mix when producing matching ‘match the hatch’ wafters. Please refer to the guide below for the recommended ratios for different hook bait sizes. These are guidelines only and can be adjusted to suit your own preferred level of buoyancy and rig setup.
Made with milk and egg proteins, along with high-quality milk powders, this mix offers excellent leakage and takes on flavours and attractors extremely well. It is easy to use and roll, with a firm yet workable texture that allows use with a bait needle without excessive force.
Wafter Buoyancy Ratios
15mm Hook Bait
Produces a well-balanced wafter when used with a Thinking Anglers Size 4 Curved Shank Hook and Micro Rig Swivel, based on our own testing. As every base mix differs in density, your results may vary. Use this as a starting point and adjust the ratio to achieve your preferred level of buoyancy.
18mm Hook Bait
Produces a well-balanced wafter when used with a Thinking Anglers Size 4 Curved Shank Hook and Micro Rig Swivel, based on our own testing. As every base mix differs in density, your results may vary. Use this as a starting point and adjust the ratio to achieve your preferred level of buoyancy.
NOTE: These are guidelines, ratios can be altered accordingly. Adding more base mix will lower the buoyancy of the finished hookbait.
Pop Up Buoyancy Ratios
15mm Hook Bait
Produces a pop up that is still buoyant enough when used with a Thinking Anglers Size 4 Curved Shank Hook and Micro Rig Swivel, based on our own testing. As every base mix differs in density, your results may vary. Use this as a starting point and adjust the ratio to achieve your preferred level of buoyancy.

As every base mix differs in density, your results may vary. Use this as a starting point and adjust the ratio to achieve your preferred level of buoyancy.
NOTE: These ratios are intended as a starting point and can be adjusted to achieve your preferred level of buoyancy. Increasing the proportion of base mix will gradually reduce the buoyancy of the finished hook bait. If too much base mix is incorporated, the hook bait may not remain buoyant for the required duration. Trial and error may be necessary to achieve the perfect balance for your chosen base mix and rig setup.

Overall Mixing Ratio
IMPORTANT: Always weigh both liquids and powders accurately using digital scales capable of measuring to at least 0.1g.
The standard mixing ratio for this wafter mix is 1.46g powder to 1g total liquid. This ratio has been developed to provide the ideal consistency, workability and finished buoyancy.
When incorporating additional liquids or powdered additives such as flavours, oils, liquid foods, amino acids or powdered attractors, the ratio may require slight adjustment.
As a starting point for customised recipes, reduce the ratio to approximately 1.35g powder per 1g total liquid, then fine tune until your preferred dough consistency is achieved.

Larger Batch Guide (Per 1kg Wafter Mix)
Note: For the most even colour distribution, place the dry mix and dyes into a sealed bag, trap some air inside and shake thoroughly before adding any liquids.
Flavour Inclusion
Some flavours simply are not compatible with pop-up and wafter mixes and can significantly affect the binding properties of the dough.
If this occurs, try one of the following:
Some flavours can only be applied to the finished hook baits because they interfere with the binding process too much to be incorporated into the mix.
For maximum attraction, we recommend boosting finished hook baits with flavours and additional liquid attractors after boiling. During the boiling process, some attractants are inevitably lost, while the coagulated egg albumen locks in a proportion of the remaining liquids, reducing their leakage. Applying flavours and attractors to the finished hook baits maximises leakage and overall attraction.
Note: Allow the hook baits to dry until they still retain a slight amount of flexibility before reapplying additional flavours or liquids. These can be applied multiple times to further increase attraction.
Instructions
Batch Yield: Approximately 250g of finished hook baits. Simply halve all ingredients to produce approximately 125g.
Boiling Times
12mm – 60 seconds
15mm – 1½–2 minutes
18mm –2–2.5 minutes
Drying & Storage
Proper drying is essential. Air dry your hook baits for a minimum of 24 hours before storing, allowing longer during colder or more humid conditions. The lower the remaining moisture content, the greater the resistance to mould.
Avoid over-drying your hook baits. Excessive drying can make them brittle and prone to cracking when squeezed. We prefer our finished hook baits to retain a slight amount of flexibility, allowing them to bounce back slightly rather than becoming stone hard.
