Dry particles

Buy dry particles? 

Particles include items such as tiger nuts, hemp, buckwheat, and corn. Particles are primarily used as a base for your baiting spot. Some particles, like tiger nuts, we use on the hair.

What are dry particles? 

Dry particles is the collective term for particles that are not yet prepared. You will have to put in a bit more work, but because many particles expand when you prepare them, you get more for the same money. Examples of dry particles that you can find at Karpercentrale include; dry tiger nuts, dry hemp seeds, dry maple peas, dry corn.

 

How to prepare dry particles? 

It is important to soak the particles for 24 to 48 hours. The particles will absorb moisture and become softer. Then, the particles need to be boiled. The cooking time varies depending on the type.

Why prepare particles? 

Properly preparing particles is extremely important for the well-being of the carp. If the particles are not cooked and soaked properly, they will be indigestible. This can even have fatal consequences.

Hoe lang moet je tijgernoten koken voor karper? Meestal kook je ze 1 tot 2 uur totdat ze zacht zijn, maar nog stevig genoeg om niet uit elkaar te vallen. Daarna kun je ze eventueel nog een nacht laten weken om ze beter verteerbaar te maken voor de karper.
For carp, boil tiger nuts until they are properly cooked, uniform, and smooth. After soaking for 24 hours, this usually means boiling them for about 30 to 45 minutes.
Can you boil tiger nuts without soaking them first?
Yes, that’s possible, but it takes longer. Soaking for weeks isn’t mandatory, but it speeds up the cooking process and usually gives a more consistent result.
Why boil tiger nuts with cola?
Boilies koken in cola wordt gedaan om ze extra zoet te maken. Dat kan de aantrekkingskracht verhogen en past goed bij het natuurlijke zoete karakter van tijgernoten.

Sugar is added to make tiger nuts sweeter. Many anglers do this to enhance the flavour and add extra attraction to the prepared nuts.
Can you also use beer with tiger nuts?
Yes, a dark craft beer can boost the fermentation process and help develop more slime on the tiger nuts.
How do you store tiger nuts after boiling?
Let tiger nuts cool down properly first, then store them in an airtight bucket or jar with a tight lid. That’s usually no problem.
