Sweet! Thanks (crossing my fingers :] )

Sorry about the confusion! This was for your 1-month subscription order. We will be getting to your backer order before that and then your subscription order will be issued 1 to 2 weeks later as a reorder, so this actually might not be 4-6 additional…

We will definitely be shipping your order before @Canyon's since you ordered first - we are working as fast as possible to get through our backlog and appreciate your patience! We are doing some of the address confirmations a bit out of order and I'm…

I just meant the amount didn't matter since non-backers will be taken care of by order date, not size. I feel you though, I've been tempted every day to buy some off eBay at the 300% markup. I bet these emails have little to nothing to do with the…

I just checked into your order - you qualify as a backer based on your order date and our current timeline is finishing up backer orders within the next 5 weeks. I'm sorry for the confusion but we have your order and will be getting it out to you as soon…

Thanks @juliomiles How big is the scoop? I lost mine.

Canyon said: Non-backer here. Ordered two weeks (not that it matters) on June 22, 2014. Just got an email asking to confirm my address. It's happening! Of course it matters... I ordered 4 weeks a month before you did and I haven't gotten my address…

There are about 6 scoops of Soylent per pouch (depending on settling, etc). 1 scoop Soylent, 2 scoops water, 1.5 teaspoons oil, (total of ~14 oz) is the recommended ratio, but you can play around depending on how thick/thin you like it.

I'm on week three as well (replacing all meals during the week, but eating muggle food on Saturday and Sunday) and I'm starting to get the brain fogginess...thanks for the suggestion - going to look at my omegas.

WHOOT!!! Got my address confirmation email today!!!!

Ana, thanks for the update!!I hope this isn't a bad question but I'm a bit confused..If this might be shipped in a "few" weeks (2 weeks so to speak) or 4-6 weeks?? More then a few "demand, along with packaging changes we recently made to make Soylent…

Have a separate post up with detailed production and fulfillment status: discourse.soylent.me Current Production and Fulfillment Status (Updated 8/28) Hi Everyone, It’s been exactly 5 weeks since my last big post,…

Non-backer here. Ordered two weeks (not that it matters) on June 22, 2014. Just got an email asking to confirm my address. It's happening!

Thanks.Is there a chance you haven't emailed all delay affected customers? I should be at week 15 now I think, which puts me in ecommerce delayed customer state, but both mails (2 accounts) haven't received a delayed mail.

The community thanks you for the update and for keeping up with communication. Keep it up!

Hi Everyone, It’s been exactly 5 weeks since my last big post, so I wanted to give an update on where we currently stand in terms of both production and fulfillment. Production:- We are currently finishing up our second major batch production at RFI…

I was on DIY Soylent last year and official Soylent since April 30th. Folks at my job were curious, grossed out (really? yeah) and, I suspect, defensive based on their mockery. Yesterday (finally!) I got two people to try it. And guess what? One of them…

Does your DIY recipe have how much water is used in the notes tab at the top?

Your subscription account is not created when you originally backed. You just need to sign up with the same email you used to back Soylent, and it they will add you to the fast-track shipping queue for reorders.

After they fulfill all the backer orders, they'll probably work on marketing. As far as flavoring, and stuff like that, I really hope they don't. What makes soylent so good is it's simplicity.The only thing that needs to be fixed is the aftertaste of…

Interesting question. I'm not sure if you'll get an answer since I haven't seen Quid post in a while. Even if it's not zero it's definitely significantly less since it is formed in quantity during the roasting process.

According to http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Folate-HealthProfessional/#h8, the daily upper intake limits for folic acid is 1mg. The more than 200g of whey powder alone go past that limit. Add on the 0.5 mg of folic acid from the vitamin pills and this…

Szia Cassus! Ki is próbáltad már, mert nagyon jónak tűnik :D

This topic is now closed. New replies are no longer allowed.

Reminder, selling Soylent is not allowed in the Soylent forums.

I ordered 2 weeks in May and wanted to up that to 4 weeks too. Emailed info@soylent and multiple weeks later was told it wasn't possible by one of the support techs and that I just had to wait until the first one shipped and then reoder. So they are…

People Food Plus (PF+) includes cracked chia seeds, that are darker than the powder and plainly visible in the mixed blend. I considered advocating that these seeds take another pass through some sort of grinder, until I tasted the mix. It’s great as-is.…

Thanks! That's just what I was looking for.

I don't know about Schmoylent specifically, but exposing the powder to air may degrade the nutrients. MattCauble said: What we know is that oxygen is the greatest enemy to Soylent. The Omega-3, any polyunsaturated fat really, will oxidize fairly quickly.…

all i know is its yummy (for me) one friend cant get past the taste of baby food...mom cant stand vanilla. im trying to figure out how to drink it slower cause it tastes so good

VadimGod said: i almost exclusivly use sweetners in coffee and such..cant taste regular sugar in hot drinks for some reason. That probably explains why it tastes similar to sweetened condensed milk to you, then, since Soylent is lightly-sweetened with…

JamesKirkby420 said: provide a verified Glycemic index for their product. Yes, verified glycemic index, please! JamesKirkby420 said:

amy said: empty kcal from Maltodextrine I apologize if I'm splitting hairs here however, the calories in the maltodextrin aren't technically "empty," they contain carbohydrate. Soylent 1.0 is so packed with micronutrients from sources that contain…

yah...i almost exclusivly use sweetners in coffee and such..cant taste regular sugar in hot drinks for some reason.

VadimGod said: used to eat it with a fork cause with a spoon id go thru it too fast now that I can relate to. Anyhow I wish I could taste that similarity but I don't. Not familiar with that specific brand of sweetened condensed milk though. You must…

Thanks, everyone, but my Soylent is no longer available as it will soon be on its way to a new owner.

How much is 1/5th of a Soylent bag? Does anyone know? I remember the scoop that came with my starter kit, but it didn't have any measuring labels on it. I am wondering if I should be bringing with something around a 1/3rd cup scoop, 1/2 cup, etc...…

Still up for sale! Just send a PM.

Normally I mix 1.6L of water with a pouch of Soylent to get to 2L finished product. So I would guess you would want to add 1.6/5L or about .32L which is about 10oz of water. So mix 1/5 bag of Soylent with about 10-11oz of water to get the right mix.…

Recently got my hands on Official Soylent...glad it tastes better than my DIY stuff...I read that it tastes like Malt Milk shake...and yes...i taste that a bit...but what I taste MUCH MUCH STRONGER is a favorite treat from my younger years. Sweetened…

to prevent clumping...add the oil AFTER you have shaken up the soylent with water...oil touching the raw powder causes clumping for me... Water....powder...(close) shake...(open) add oil and top off with water...shake shake shake...haven't had issues…

Yes, if you used to large portions - first time you may feel hungry (mental inertia). I noticed it for myself and had similar reports from customers. Your brain and body need around 3 days to adjust.

We calculated group order for France customers and found shipment cost very attractive. How very? - almost similar to US costs... How many people needed? - 3-4 person to one address with One month order each will be enough.

@JulioMiles - I had tried contacting info@soylent.com for the same reason, but got a reply on July 2nd from 'Mugeni' stating that it wasn't possible to increase the subscription size, and that I should wait until I got my first shipment before placing…

According to the answer by Dietitian - you're right. Regarding the products.... Thanx.But on the Powdered Foods Marketplace you can find more nice products from other DIY-producers.

Just signed up so can't PM yet - feel free to PM me. And this thread will probably get shut down since sales aren't supposed to be done on the forums any longer

To prevent duplication of the similar questions, pls. post them in separate threads, pls.

I recently received my one month order of Soylent. After trying it for a few days, even though it is a fine product, I have decided to stick with my DIY recipe. As it stands, I currently have three weeks of Soylent in unopened boxes (each box is a week's…

Awesome customer service!!! Thank you so much!!! Now to wait for the soylent to arrive!!! I saw that extra orders of soylent gets quicker shipping on the website... When I get to log in, it doesn't accept my email and PW... I'm one of the original backers...

Easing into the mixture, starting with 1/2 batch per day. Meanwhile, I've been experimenting with diluting it down to 2.5 L to easily spread it out over 5 mini-meals, which is going well. But I am also working with a slightly different version containing…

What's the source of the claim in the notes that raw cacao has no acrylamide content?

Jeg prøvede den i omkring en måneds tid, men synes ikke umiddelbart jeg blev mæt af det. Kørte det også morgen, middag og aften. Overvejer at prøve at bruge det engang imellem som enkelt måltider, hvis jeg lige har travlt.

That's a great idea. A Starter Kit ordered from the website could contain the pitcher, a scoop, and a bag of Soylent in the pitcher.

In the FAQ it is stated: "Joylent has alot of milk proteins, so it is very much not lactose free." However, I fail to understand the connection between proteins and sugar. I have a quite severe lactose intolerance, so I need to clarify this point before…

How much Soylent and how much fish oil should I measure out and use per 16oz bottle of water? I am going to PAX this weekend and am planning to carry around a small horde of bottled water each day and a couple packs of Soylent. Some for myself and some…

discourse.soylent.me What is the PH of Soylent? Ok folks, here are the results... Calibrated with a 7.0 reference solution, original reading before calibration was 6.9 so the tester was in very good shape to begin with.…

Totally uninitiated on this topic but the bags don't seem to be vacuum sealed and they don't ship with any desiccants inside so I would imagine it would be okay for Soylent, provided the container is bone dry. I always did like those little push-button…

How bad of an idea is it to transfer the powder to another container so they aren't separated in individual bags? Would it put the product at risk for being exposed to the elements and being combined into one receptacle? I have had a scenario where one…

Yep--the oil conveniently comes in bottles smaller than the TSA 3-oz. max, so you can bring as many as you can put in a quart-size ziploc baggie (along with any other liquids you're carrying on).

I'd definitely love to see more subscription options (in the vein of Dollar Shave Club, allowing shipments to be occasionally skipped and allowing subscribers to add extras to a shipment before it goes out) along with a few different nutritional varieties…

Love the taste and convenience of Soylent. Wish they could offer different Macro Ratios, or provide a verified Glycemic index for their product. I don't really want to DIY so I'm hanging with the official version for now. Also I'd love to hear about…

This is a great idea. Dollar Shave Club does a really good job on this and it would work well with Soylent, too.

For me, as a Canadian, International shipments are a big project. While it seems simple, the barriers between the countries are greater than you might think. For instance, when I ordered a month's worth of 100%Food, I got a brokerage bill for $121 a few…

Good question. I would love for them to offer a high-quality, lower-calorie Soylent without artificial sweetener and empty kcal from Maltodextrine. I'm sure there are many of us willing to pay the additional cost. Most likely the last thing on Rob's mind…

I think that once they ramp up production so where anyone who wants soylent can get it within a week they will run into a new challenge within 6 months: DIY. They're going to have to provide some sort of additional value to intice users to give them money…

Salut @Tronce , ce message pour m'assurer de la dernière version de la recette de ton Absŏlūtus Pōtĭo. Est-ce bien la version 1.1 ? Par ailleurs continues-tu toujours d'en consommer ? Merci pour tes précieuses explications distillées dans cette discussion…

You can absolutely take oil in carryon domestic or international as long as you meet TSA guidelines. Done it

Hm... I've had similar experiences on iron and magnesium supplements.

I think that traveling in the USA with the oil should not be a problem, as long as you don't put them in your carryon bag. I would definitely make sure the lids are tight, and put them in a plastic bag to keep them from leaking all over the clothes in…

Obnoxious vegan subscriber here. I'm not actually vegan, but I work overseas, and my "onward shippers" won't ship anything with more than 12 oz of liquid, so... I was one of the very last backers in April or May 2014. My initial two-week vegan supply…

THOSE MOTHER FUCKERS HAVE STOLEN 70€ FROM ME. THEY HAVE NEVER ANSWERED A FUCKING EMAIL FROM ME APART FROM THAT ONLY EMAIL THAT IS A JOKE : *** Keke Baas - Joylent (keke@joylent.eu) Hi Alexandre, I have to apologize to you, last month Joylent was…

I don't have my Soylent yet (2-week December order), but have been using a sleep cycle app for the past two years on my phone. I'll share the data when I get it, but it should be pretty easy to see if there's a noticeable difference.

I've been on Soylent for about a week now, using it for about 2/3 of my meals and eating dinner with my wife. I found almost immediately that was easier to wake up in the morning after moving to Soylent. The alarm would go off, and while I wanted to stay…

My recipe is just over 3 cups of powder + 1 quart milk, which makes about 6 cups. I usually add about 1-2 more cups of water.

FYI, I bought it off Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CYAIRG8/ Don't know about the shipping to Australia...

I've posted a couple videos on my experience travelling with Soylent. You can catch the first one here:

After Rosa Labs ships all the Soylent to its customers, where do they go from here? (excluding getting international shipments started) Where would you want them to go, i.e. lower price point, flavors, nutritional varieties, charity distribution, more…

I'm thinking of adding l-carnitine and beta alanine to the recipe, thoughts? EDIT: Planning to flavour with vanilla.

During the first two weeks I would take a digestive supplement about every other day - helped a lot. My body is also fairly used to it all by now (week 3). I also only replace 2 meals/day. I've been doing crossfit for the last two weeks - soylent is…

I personally add ~3 cups of water per meal. I start with 1 cup and then add the powder (it makes it a lot easier to mix this way) and then add two more cups. I like mine very thing though so it's mostly preference.

Hi, Thanks for posting this, it looks good. I'm just wondering about the high fibre and fat contents, is there a reason you go over the 100% threshold? I'll use your voucher when I order. How long of a supply did you order? What is the quantity of…

Very very very well done. @rob - why not have a resident dietician on the forum too, to dispel all the myths people come up with?

I'm interested, but the webpage it's entirely in czech... and with google translate only serves products to Czech Republic.

Thanks, I was not aware. I will think about this, but I do not think I will worry too much about it.

Grilling commenced. I'm starting with some of the questions I've had for nutritionists and also some branching from his introduction. Hopefully this conversation provides a suitable validation of his credentials.

Not sure what happened, but my bottle says differently to what I could find today at Chemist Warehouse and the Centrum website. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I have updated the recipe.

Are there blogs of people reporting their ongoing experiences with DIY soylent?

@JulioMiles @MattCauble I have an interesting query... I want to buy one of the pitchers you have since I cant find something here similar or cheaper here in Australia. At the same time would it be possible to put in a single day of soylent as a "taster…

Wondering the same thing. Will let you know if I find it.

Hmm, in principe zou een dergelijke vitaminenmix wel op te schalen zijn naar een productielijn. Het is tenslotte niet meer dan het tot stof malen van de pillen en deze op de juiste manier mixen. Zou het een probleem zijn als ik je recept eens bekijk en…

I personally mix my daily batch with ~1.5 quarts of water, to make a finished mix of a little under 2 quarts. This seems to be the most popular ratio, but don't be afraid to play around with the amount of water you use, you may find you like it a little…

6 pH is not really "acidic" in compared to normal tap water. As you will find water can be anywhere between 6-8 depending on where you live (minerals in the water). Another forum member tested how much Soylent lowered the pH, I suggest searching for the…

Hey @JesseN ! Sorry about the mixup. Your starterkit shipment shipped out earlier this week and that put you in our system as a priority customer. Our system automatically activates subscriptions for priority customers. Since you had a subscription in…

How much do you use?

I'm keen to know your experience with T25 too. When I did Insanity the first time I was having knee issues, but this time (at the suggestion of personal trainer friend) I've been taking tart cherry and haven't been experiencing the issues. I'm not sure…

Hi @Spaceman - I didn't ask a question about the best formula for the Insanity workout. I made the point that when doing an incredibly intense cardio workout like Insanity, your body must have fuel to push through it, and unless you're in ketosis and…

Whatever amount makes it most palatable to you. You're going to be drinking extra water on the side.
