just discovers a few ice cubes in there help mix it up when shaking
Soā¦ less than the recommended ratios? Basically the exact same thing as just adding more water.
This topic is too repetitive, I honestly think we should be focus in others aspects, I donāt mind if it is a little bit more think I would like the focus to be in healthā¦ I mean we are getting a bit obsessed with all of thisā¦
I am happy with the new version, I would say that the taste is softer not as strong as before, and I and happy about the new changes chosen to improve the recipe, and that is what I like more, a complete product in terms of nutrition, if you want a less thick product with a nice flavour chemically done and not as nutritionally complete then you can find many alternatives, I chose huel because it really makes me feel better than other solutions Iāve tried and overall I think it is a good product.
Please team, donāt lose the focus and keep going!.

What now?
Thatās why we all chose Huel. Some of us disagree on the good product facet though, in recent iterations. Thatāsā¦ why weāre here.
No. We can do both.
I concur.

I was talking about the competitors flavour (chemically done), I donāt know why but I feel huel much more ānaturalā than other brands, basically that is why I am not interested in the flavours pouches huel are selling, I want innovation but based in nutrition rather than thickness or flavour which I find them more than ok. I prefer them (the team) to be focus in nutrition as I am trusting their recipe, so I would say my health is in their hands as I am drinking loads of huel, thickness apartā¦

The thickness isnāt natural, for U&U it has been artificially thickened with gum to try and bring it in line with vanilla.

What Matt said. Used to be you could put 100g in 400mil and itād be the thickness of milk, basically. The viscosity has since been doubled, by way of the gum blend. For no other reason than that āpeople asked for itā.
Iāve been on 1600-2000cal for 16 months now, daily. I trust their nutrional work.
I just canāt drink it any more.

The thickness doesnāt bother me at all, however the lumps Iām experiencing with U/U gluten free are so annoying. First 300ml, 3 scoops and shake (without grid), top of to a total of 700ml water. Than Iāll add some ice cubes top of with the grid. Does not matter how long I shake (10 seconds to a minute?) but the lumps will stay.
I think this picture says it all. 
No problems with lumps with 2.1 at all with less water.
I could use a blender and all, but thatās not what I use Huel for, I want it to be easy!
Hope you really can figure this out.

+1 new version 2.2 is awful I want to throw it away to be honest. Can you swap for 2.1 it really is that bad!

Huge negative impact with the new version.
Just to add Vanilla with sweetener version.
Regular U/U; way more lumpy & much thicker than any 2.1 batch.

That looks gross.
Huel guys - has the problem batch been identified? My subscription is supposed to fire off tomorrow so will freeze that if this is whatās on the way, until the problem is sorted.
Cheers
Yeah, thatās what left, hold by the grid, when finished. The rest is perfectly eatable. But now I am just throwing away a bunch of Huel (the lumps) which is a waste.
Have you thought about taking the grid out and putting a mixing ball in?
Thatās what Iāve done and have zero lumps.
Just ordered one of these, hoping itāll make a difference. Theyāre about 99p on ebay (or Ā£1.35 for 2) when I looked, figure itās worth a punt for a quid.
I am not using the grid while shaking. But will try a mixer ball.
I donāt understand how this is happening. Maybe youāre not shaking it vigorously enough?
I use 500ml water then add 3 scoops on top of that, close shaker, shake for 10 seconds and donāt have any lumps at all.
Also using 2.2.
Are you using gluten free? I am using 2.2 gluten free.
I love 2.2 and am having no problems with mixing (though I am using a blender, albeit a very rubbish one). I like the thickness and would definitely not want it to be any thinner. But I do like thick shakes.
I am using normal 2.2. Maybe gluten free is the problem then? Hmm.
