Wow, he didnt ask what food will help him gain weight, he wants a powder. I'm tired of people giving OP's answers that have nothing to do with the question. IMO for max weight gain Russian Bear or Serious mass by ON. They have the most calories per serving. Let me warn you though, if you gain weight to fast it will come on as fat not muscle.

NLARGE2 is the cheapest and best bang for your buck product you can get. Some add peanut butter to the serving for more effectiveness. Take what ever weight gainer you get especially at night right before bed with milk as it will release slowly. During the day with milk is sometimes hard to digest for some people. Make sure you have proper nutritional intake, i.e. good multi and 5 small to reasonable meals a day. Make sure you train for high overall workout volume as that is your goal if you want mass. When comparing others look at the labels. Many of them want you to take like 20 scoops per dosage and before you know it your spending a fortune on it.
A good weight gainer is one whose main source for carbohydrates comes from maltodextrin. This is the carb base that will refill muscle glycogen stores most quickly, which is what you want in a quality weight gainer that is being used in conjunction with a bodybuilding regiment. Sugars are bad because this leads to a very high spike in your body?s insulin, which is followed by the type of crash that can cause migraines, fatigue, shakes, and upset stomach. Stay away from the sugar heavy weight gainers and you will definitely be healthier in general, as well as happier with the results that you can achieve with a quality weight gainer that relies on better carbs and proteins.
Cheap alternative...
Optimum Nutrition's Serious Mass
More Expensive alternative...
EAS's Mass Factor (better nutritional support)
Remember 20kgs ain't 20lbs. That will take some serious time unless you wanna load up on Dbol and Nandrolones. Pick a decent time frame and do the math to set a short term preferably weekly goal.
There is a ratio for the ingredients but I can't find it or remember sorry.
Lastly you can just mix 80% good unflavoured protein powder and 20% maltodextrin to save tons a cash.
Good Luck!

maltodextrin = sugar in the body. Don't kid yourself.

Sometimes the OP, especially one with two posts, isn't aware that he is asking the wrong question.
For example, let's take Serious Mass vs skim milk. I'll use skim milk over 2% or whole due to the macros.
Serious mass is $38.99 for 12 pounds. The container is 16 servings of 50g protein, 252g carbs, 4.5g fat for a total of 1250 calories. So for 1250 calories, a serving of Serious Mass costs $3.25.
Skim milk where I live is $1.69 per gallon. A gallon of skim milk is 1344 calories at 128g protein and 208g carbs. So by going for skim milk over serious mass, the OP gets the same amount of calories, over twice the protein, and only slightly less carbs for half the price.
So when people say eat food over supps, it's not because supps are bad, it's usually because food is cheaper. Most of the time, OPs aren't aware of that.1
