Aussie Cassein mixability problem

I noticed there was already a thread about this in the protein category, but I just activated my username and for some reason it's not letting me post in there. Anyway, my problem is basically that I just got the Aussie Cassein and it seems to mix into an undrinkable blend with huge clumps in it. My mix is just chocolate flavor with vitamins, nothing more. I'm using 30g with 16 oz of water. It's recommended that you use 10 to 16 oz of water but does it matter if you use more? Maybe I need to mix 30g with like 24oz of water in order for it to mix better. It may sound like a stupid question, but I dunno. Is there a reason why you shouldn't use too much water?

Does anyone else have any suggestions for mixing the Aussie Cassein? I'd hate to have to just throw it out but there's no way I can drink it with clumps in it.

Thanks in advance

16 ounces should be plenty of water. what's ur mixing method? i've never seen a protein that a blender couldn't handle. i use a 20 ounce blender from wally world for all my proteins

Dave31650, sometimes you just have to man up!! to get rid of it because of clumps is silly.

I eat my protein powder like pudding. I use just enough water to mix any of my proteins with a spoon and have to eat it with a spoon.

That's just nasty!

Thanks for the responces. LOL @ having to man up and eat it like pudding with a spoon. Yea I tried it with a blender yesterday and it wasn't quite as bad but I'd like to be able to shake it in a bottle and drink it real quick like I can with the whey isolate.

It's not that much of a problem and I'm def not going to throw it out, but I'm still wondering...

Does using more water have an ill effect on the benefits of the powder? It may seem like a silly question but I just wanted to make sure I'm not missing out on any of the proteins.

Is it cool to use as much water as I want for mixing the powder in a drink?

Thanks again guise!

and gals....

I used to get mad about the clumps but now i like them for some reason.

They are like little balls of flavor, that explode with goodness !

Ha ha ha! Pretty funny. Anyway, to answer your question, no--it doesn't change the protein quality in any way if you mix it with more water than the directions say. Remember, protein powder is just food. Food works no matter what else you mix it with, right? So same thing here. You can do whatever you want with it as long as you get it down the hatch!
