Short answer, a ton of meat and flora. For the break down of what to grind specifically and in what order, check the stickies - it's there in the FAQ. Don't forget to get a generic inspiration buff. Last I checked, the BE-specific buff failed to grant any exp bonus However, even the 10% bonus from the generic (which can be had from even an AFK dancer) saves you resources, and saves time doing the sampling grind (which I think is also address in the same sticky).

Also, if your guild/PA or friends do any sort of base busting and you are Rebel or Imp you should read up on how the BE portion of that works and offer your services. At least when I did it (and didn't need the exp by then, darnit) it granted 1000 Sampling exp. Might have changed, and I don't know if the base had to fall, but it's worth looking into because there is little you can do to make the sampling tree go by faster and the macro-ability is limited because your inventory will fill up.

Base busting gave me BE crafting xp last time I did it which was a while ago. Anyone done it really recently and what did you get then please?

It was probably close to a year ago that I helped my PA take down 3 Imp bases in about as many days. Trying to pin down the memory it is indeed possible that it was 1000 BE crafting exp, and I thought "Sure would be alot more incentive if it were Sampling exp...", but I'm leaning more towards thinking it ironic that I was an MBE and that sweet,"easy" Sampling exp was going to waste. I plead senility only the sense of irony and notion of Sampling expfrom basecrackinghas managed to go un-purged from my memory. We'll just have to see if we can get this tested; maybe some of my old pals would be willing to have me waiting in the wings for this again soon.

Dor (politely calling Ketu possibly mistaken on details )

No worries This doesn't seem to be detailed anywhere in the FAQ, so we should probably try to test it sometime to see just what exp it gives. Much forum searching this afternoon turned up no mention of the exp at all, oddly enough.

I have offered my services for base cracking since I've been back post-CU. It was at a live event, and I was told that a "one man base cracking team" (or something to that effect) was on their way, so I wouldn't be needed

In hopes that someone else reading this thread who doesn't already grok the finer points of DNA sequencing might feel better about trying this, here is the information on how our part of the base takedown process works.
