Has anyone figured out a good way to get the bubble layer out of our protein isolate shakes?



Recommended Posts

Hello friends! Just wondering if there is a good method besides buying a ninja with a vacuum setup. Thank you for your replies.

I guess it's easier to throw out a little Protein in the foam than to have to drink it. Yuck. Thanks.

Pour through a fine mesh strainer?

Fill it up to the top as much as you can before blending and you won't have the foam.

I mix mine in a shaker cup. As long as I put my fairlife milk in first and the powder in second, I don’t get any bubbles or foam. If I put powder first I do get lots of bubbles and foam.

I use Syntrax Nectar

Premake the night before. That stuff will settle and just stir it with a spoon or lightly shake.

Making it the night does nothing but make layers and on top still sits around a 3/4" of foam. I can stir back up, still foams on top.

I'm going to have to try some Syntrax Nectar sometime. I've got around 8 pounds of whey Protein Isolate unflavored powder, so it will be awhile.

Lol I bought a huge 5 pound container of unflavored 2 years ago. Big mistake on my case as I will never use it all.

the bp store here does have sample packs when you are ready to try it.

Yeah shaker cup is the best way to mix If it's still foamy then it's cheap brand.

I've tried many brands the good stuff mixes with out foam.

Thought I was doing good, 2 ingredients; Whey Protein Isolate and less than 1% Sunflower lectin to prevent caking.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
