Troubleshooting

Powder is clumping in the shaker

Add the liquid to the shaker cup first, followed by the protein powder, then shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds.

Flavor is too intense or too diluted

Adjust the amount of water used; add more water to dilute the sweetness, or use less water for a more concentrated flavor profile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best experience, use a standard shaker bottle or a blender.

  1. Measuring: Always use the provided 32g scoop to maintain accurate protein intake.
  2. Mixing: Combine one scoop with 180-240ml of cold water or your choice of beverage. Adjust liquid volume to suit your preference for thickness.
  3. Storage: Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is sealed tightly after each use to prevent moisture accumulation, which can cause the powder to clump.
