Casein - 2Lb Micellar Vanilla Casein Protein - Bulk, GMO-Free, Gluten Free, Soy Free, Preservative Free - Stimulate Muscle Growth - Enhance Recovery - 15 Servings

Amazing protein powder. It has great texture and the taste is exactly as described, plain, so I am able to add protein to any food without it altering the taste. It’s great quality too. 10/10

Expensive. Tastes chemically. It’s sitting in the cabinet taking up space.

Minimalistic ingredients and creamy taste. A great source of slow digesting protein that has minimal GI impact.

It’s definitely good quality ingredients. Good, clean protein. However, it’s straight up nasty. To those of you who can just mix it with water and send it back, kudos, you will do well in the apocalypse. Horrible flavor, and you know they know, because they have recipes to make it more appealing. I made the cookie dough from their website… not bad, way better than just the shake by itself. Definitely something to get creative with.

I’ve been working out and taking different protein supplements consistently for about 15 years. I decided to try this brand as a cleaner alternative to the casein I had been taking previously, and there were a lot of reviews on this product saying it tasted great and mixed well enough. I’m pretty sure those are either bots or people who work for this company that wrote them because this has to be the worst tasting protein I have ever had. Mix-ability was horrible. No matter how long I shook it up in my shaker bottles it would always end up chalky feeling. I usually take casein before bed, and the previous brand I was using was great because it would help me fall asleep faster. This does the opposite. After I’ve choked down the bottle of it, I lay in bed bloated for about 30 minutes or so before it finally starts to die down so I can sleep. I bought the chocolate flavor, which is a joke because it doesn’t taste anything like chocolate. Eventually I started mixing my Whey protein with this to help make it drinkable. Honestly pretty annoyed that it only comes in a 5lb container. I would have liked to tried a 1lb bag first to see if it was worth the ~$100 I paid for this. I guess I’ll be forcing this down for the next month and a half or so. I get what the company is trying to do by keeping the ingredient count low, and I do appreciate that, but I would suggest a warning that this is going to be VERY different than any thing you’ve probably used in the past. Don’t let the bot reviews fool you!

Great supplement for gaining muscle. If you can't afford this, cottage cheese is another good source of casein.

Great value

I bought this item with the idea of mixing it with Amazing Grass Superfood products to add some flavor and extra nutrition. I was also looking to get away from the ON flavors and their sweeteners, though ON is not bad at all and uses few ingredients. Naked Casein costs something like 30% more per serving, but I decided to try it anyway. Others have likened it to powdered skim milk. I can agree with that. There is just a mild powdery taste. The downside is that the servings are two scoops of powder. If you're like me and you like to use two servings to get around 45-50g of protein in a shake, that is 4 scoops of powder. I'm not trying to say they rip you off or anything, as the serving count is properly labeled, but rather that this huge amount of powder makes for a very thick, powdery shake that is unpleasant to drink. To compound this issue, the powder is super fine and makes the water very frothy and airy. I use a large blender bottle with like 25 oz of water. I think I would need like 30+ oz. of water or more to make this palatable enough to be OK with me. That can be a bit much, as people usually take their casein shakes before bed and don't wanna have to down a huge shake right before sleeping. Aside from that, I can't comment on the gains I've gotten from this product, as I'm not a cyborg with measurable biomass particles attributable to a specific source, but I think it's fine. I haven't noticed a change since I moved over from ON casein. The amino acid profile is very similar to ON, which I think is a good brand. I think I will go back to ON when this tub is done. It's a good idea, the whole "naked" thing, but it's just too much powder for me. I love that there are companies that are pioneering (or throwback-ing) to all natural foods, but it's not quite enough yet to win me over for good. If they can work on the consistency and amount of the powder, it would be awesome... no to mention the added cost compared to their biggest competitor. At this time though, I think the ON shakes are just so much smoother and their flavors are not all that bad.

We've used this in baking and in smoothies. I appreciate that it doesn't have flavourings or sweeteners added.

If you know you want a pure casine with no sweetners or fillers this product is exactly that. The trouble I've had with it is trying to find a way to take the stuff that doesn't taste awful. The powder has no flavoring or additives so it mixes poorly and tastes like 1980s powdered milk. Best I've found is adding a shot of Nesquick to cut down the foam and give it some flavor.

This product is great. As any casein powder it can be hard to mix but here's the hack : Mix it into warm regular cow milk at 35 ⁰C. You don't need a lot of milk. Half a cup will be just enough. That initial mix will be thick. Thats normal. Then you can add coconut milk, water or anything you want to achieve the desired consistency. But stick to regular milk at 35 ⁰C to begin with. You will see! The result will be day and night. No more chalky feeling...

I made this review 3 times and it didn’t post or stick. So I’m making this review as little as possible because the very good one I made was erased and now I don’t give a flying f about the review as Amazon keeps ruining it. It’s decent stuff, I bought a lot of powders and this one doesn’t have the weird texture. Has no flavour but still leaves a very milk taste. All products (as I have all them) all have the milk taste. Other than that it’s not bad and blends well with your smoothies. I gave details last 3 times so this time is a basic and lame review because it probably won’t stick and Amazon will make me do it again.

I mix a scoop of this unflavoured casein with a half scoop of my normal chocolate whey protein and 350ml of water in a shaker bottle and shake for about 20 seconds. There are no chunks or weird bits. It's a little bit chalky, but it's not bad and it cuts the artificial sweetness of the whey protein. I'm not looking for something that tastes amazing; just something that can go down the hatch and help me meet my protein target for the day. I'll be trying the Naked Whey next.
