I’m starting to think Huel has quality control issues, based on the vastly different experiences with each version.
For future feedback I think it should be mandatory to specify the batch number, which can be found on the bottom right corner of every Huel bag. I’ve received bad batches before where the version is being praised on this forum but my specific batch was just not proper, one batch I had a few months ago smelled extremely bad after mixed with water and one batch also a pretty long time ago now was unacceptably thick, while seemingly nobody else with the same version complained about it.
From reading some of the comments complaining about thickness, it reminds me a lot of that bad batch I once had. After mixing the exact same amount of water as I always did, you could almost see a thick layer on the top and the texture was very different compared to normal Huel.
My current order which is v2.2 from batch #3168, received July 26th has been awesome. I’m on my last bag, and I usually mix 6 scoops every day with 1000ml water, usually with some blueberries or a banana. I’ve tried mixing it in my shaker 2-3 times and I use 450ish ml water with 3 scoops every time, this have been even less thick than previous version, it almost felt like I’ve used a mixer.
Other people in this thread obviously don’t have the same experience with this version. It’s also a difficult issue since you don’t know if some people are exaggerating or not.
Purchasing a product shouldn’t be a gamble. I love Huel too much to stop buying it, but I sincerely hope Huel starts to test every batch or do random sample tests internally.
I honestly think these people have a different experience because their Huel is to put it simple different than your batch, even if the version is the same. Check out what I typed above.
