Is Huel 3.0 more or less clumpy than previous version?

There have been contradictory reports.

3.0 mixes way worse, it's clumpy from the beginning and much thicker than the previous version.

Oh yeah man it mixes very thin. I am also a guy who enjoys thin huel so this is a godsend.

There are various others, I can't get a straight answer anywhere. Is it more or less clumpy? Maybe we just vote.

I’ve experienced this also.

Kind of. Clumps can be independent of how viscous it is. It could be a less viscous mixture (for equal proportions of powder and water, by mass), but still have a tendency to cake up into clumps. That's disappointing. I guess I'm sticking with SBF.

It (chocolate) is the first one I have found you can get away without using a blender. It seems smoother and thicker/creamier in texture to me.

As the second comment I realise this contradicts the first so doesn’t help you in the slightest. Maybe it’s different for different flavours. I’ve only had Chocolate V3.

This might all be random scatter, averaging out to the same consistency as the previous version.

I don't have any lumps in the vanilla shake. I mix about half and half water and almond milk.

I might try this. I have been using almond milk only. Gonna have to try it half and half.

Cool. Roughly I add water to my two scoops until the shaker is around 2/3 full. Shaking it up brings it down to half and then I'll top it up with almond milk until it's at 600. I give it a final shake and done. Never had lumps.

It matters a lot which bottle you use. In an actual blender bottle with the steel ball it’s great.

I wouldn't say it's particularly clumpy but my usual amount of water is leading to waaaaay thicker shakes. 430ml and 2x 'new' scoops.

I have only tried the V3 chocolate and find it much sweeter/chocolaty, thicker, and clumpier than V1 and V2. Pretty sad about it; hope my palate will adjust.

More clumpy. Going back to white bag original

We're talking about Huel 3.0, which is in a white bag, not Huel Black.

I wonder if other people are confusing these versions.
