I used to make enough paste to fill the bait gun and that's it. So instead of doing 6eggs or in your case 10eggs at once , I did say 2 eggs at a time. Don't get me wrong, I would blitz say 30 eggs at a time, add liquids etc and I worked out that 150ml of the egg mix plus base mix would fill the gun perfectly. It meant I did say 12 mixes instead of 5 but I had no paste sitting and therefore drying out/ stiffening up. .

About an hour is enough. Some people will tell you to wind it on with the spool the label side up but I have drilled a couple of holes in an old ice cream tube wide enough for a pencil to go through and wind it on that way and the water lubricates it on the way in and the friction slows it down a bit. That is the way the manufacteur spooled it on and so it makes sense to take it off that way as well. Used to get the missus to hold the pencil and apply a bit of pressure on the spool but gave it up a bad job as too much moaning about getting burnt thumbs!

Nah. Use with confidence buddy.
