Hey does anyone know how I can make the cacao powder I got stop from clumping in my milkshakes, I got a kg of it and the old stuff I had was for baking and that didn't clump as much and was also 100%.

Also I got 100g Pure Vanillin powder and that stuff is fucking strong as hell, what would be the correct ratio if I were to mix it int with the cacao?

Whisk the cocoa powder with a bit of boiling water into a runny paste first, then slowly whisk in milk until it is worked in properly. Then work with that.

I wouldn't mix the vanillin powder in with the cocoa powder to be honest, but if I absolutely needed to store them as a mix, I'd make equal servings of chocolate milkshake or cocoa milk with a fixed amount of cocoa, then season the different servings with vanillin (measured in grams) and choose the ratio that tasted best for my personal powder mixture. I wouldn't expect you to need more than 20g vanillin on 500g of cocoa though.

Maybe only use half of the cocoa powder to mix it with vanillin, too, so you still have a pure quantity for dusting cakes and recipes that are better without vanilla.

Thanks, I didn't realize how strong the powder was and I put one teaspoon into like 500ml of milk, some nasty shit.

Whenever I make hot chocolates with cocoa, I always mix it with the sugar before adding the water/milk. This way the sugar dissolves and leaves spaces within the cocoa, creating more surface area and leaving it unable to clump.

What sweetener are you using?

>100g Pure Vanillin powder

Wait, you mean <-? That's awesome! I figured it would be a gas or a volatile liquid though. What colour is it and how much did it set you back?

But yeah, don't mix 'em unless you really don't trust yourself to get it right every time. If that's the case then just experiment because only you know how much vanilla you want and how strong that batch of cocoa is.
