BodyBuilding Warehouse Premium Cassein Sample reviews
05 February 2012 13:45
( permalink)
Taste - Vanilla 3+/5 Strawberry 4/5 Chocolate 4/5 Chocolate Orange 3/5 The Vanilla was quite solid tasting, albeit ive had better tasting vanilla shakes in the form of DY Tempro and Reflex Peptide Fusion, albeit these are also blends so taste/texture will be slightly diffrent anyways. Cant go wrong with Chocolate allthough Strawberry was my personal fave. Took me back to the days of the orginal Mcdonalds milkshakes minus all the crap in them. Chocolate orange had the Orange aftertase but very artificiel, so imo the weakest of the flavours. Mixablity - Mixs good in milk, better in water. I ordered 3 vanila samples, 1 to mix in water, and 2 in milk and have to say..in just 300ml of milk it didnt mix to good at all (it is cassein afterall) so if mixing anything more then a scoop id reccomend upping the liquid content, atleast when using milk. 3+/5 Useage - Overal quite happy with the samples ive tryed, would probably pick up a tub of the Strawberry somestage to run as my prebed, good value for money and a preety good nutrional breakdown aka not full of carbs and fats and a respectable protein level from a good company. Once the other flavour (Capuchino) is in stock I will alo look to try that somestage and will update this review then 4/5 Supplement Facts: Serving Size - 1 Scoop (30g) Servings Per Container - 83 Per Serving: Kcals - 111 Protein (as dry matter) - 23.4g Protein (as is) - 21.6g Carbohydrates - 2.6g - of which sugars - 1.8g Fat - 1.8g - of which saturates - 0.8g Fibre - 297mg Sodium - 15mg Ingredients: Instantised Micellar Casein, Milk Protein, MCT Oil, Natural and Nature Identical Flavourings, Stabilisers (Citric Acid, Malic Acid), Contains Sweetener: Sucralose Please note: Nutritional facts and ingredients may vary slightly between flavours. Suggested Use: Take 1 to 2 scoops (30-60g) of Premium Casein immediately before bed. Premium Casein can also be mixed with Premium Whey in a 1 to 1 ratio (1 scoop Premium Whey, 1 scoop Premium Casein) to make an excellent protein blend that is perfect for between meals snacking.

Thanks for the reviews! :) On a side note, you can make awesome protein pancakes with Premium Casein.....I did it a couple weeks ago and because it's thicker, it works SO MUCH better than straight whey for a nice tasty breakfast. Here's the recipe for anyone interested: Add 2 inches skimmed milk into a larger shaker, 2 whole eggs, 1 scoop Premium Casein in Chocolate, 1 scoop oats, and a handful of raisins if you'd like. Close the shaker, shake up for 20 seconds or so, then pour a little into a hot pan and wait until it's cooked on that side. Scoop over and let it cook on the other side, then pop on a plate. Repeat until you've used all the mixture. Nice and easy, and very, very tasty :)

Hey Liam, Did any/all of those flavors leave you with a 'dusty' feeling in your mouth? I tried cappuccino and it did, didn't matter how much liquid I added either :S I normally drink ON casein but hoping to get a more affordable brand that tastes as good! I'm thinking of getting either chocolate or strawberry, was chocolate sweet or more dark choc tasting? e2a - BBW any plans for a choc cookie or banana casein on the horizon? :)

Those pancakes look amazing btw :P Ive tryed to make protein bars/flapjacks before, they tasted okay but the consistency was never quite right compared to commercial bars (tryed diffrent bases such as cornflakes, wheatbix, oats etc) And to Kaos, Ive not tryed the Cappuchino so cant comment, didnt get a dusty feeling with any of the shakes, allthough out of the satchet had to shake them up a bit as some of the contents kinda became "static" like and started clumping and pinging out haha probably due to the wrapper tbh. Id say the chocolate tasted more dark chocolate then sweet, most chocolates fall into 1 of 2 catergories really, same as strawberry. Its not overly sweet but can defo taste the strawberry, and think its perfect tbh, none of the flavours are too sweet or artificiel, minus the choc orange.

I know we'd like to release a new flavour in another product pretty soon....just asked everyone on FB what flavour that should be lol :)

those pancakes look great - that's next weekend's breakfast sorted. I prefer the chocolate flavours, they lend themselves to other recipes like flapjacks etc or if you add fruit to the shake i ordered choc orange by mistake last time - it's palatable but doesn't mix well with bananas I have found the new BBW website doesn't work in my preferred browser Opera which is why I ordered choc orange by mistake - always have to use Internet Explorer to browse the site - minor inconvenience i guess

I know we did a fix for some compatibility issues a couple weeks back, that should have sorted it. If you're still noticing an issue would you mind emailing it in to our info@bodybuildingwarehouse.co.uk email address and we'll get our tech team on it straight away?

I've used this product in my training in the past. Love the taste of the Chocolate shake. Cant really say anything bad about it to be honest. Good review and a good product. Not outstanding but 'does exactly what it says on the tin' which is what we want right!!?
