    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    Give it a week or two and you will see why we really don't feel the need to spend big money on a scale. The AW is a little jumpy but as joel said, you need to have a solid base. My mixing bench is some kind of Ikea type Scandinavian style table and it loosened up a bit on me so the when I...

    I remember back in the day...

    I remember yellow fingers. I remember smelling like an ashtray. I remember burn holes in my car seats. I remember being breathless at the top of a stairway. I remember hating myself so much every time I lit up. I remember the coughing and the resulting disgusting hack up. I remember when I...

    I need help with a recipe

    That's the one I was thinking of. I don't use it enough for some reason. I drink French Vanilla Coffee and FW French Vanilla at 12% has been an ADV for me from the beginning but the TFA FV Cream seems to get lost in the back of the cabinet for long periods of time. To many flavors and not...

    Yea, after multiple hard drops I have had to pry that connection back up several time. I also managed to loosen the cove on the left hand side and it just kind of rides in there now. But, after a ton of serious abuse, this thing keeps on ticking! Did you glue that piece of rubber in there or...

    I need help with a recipe

    One of my classic bases is VC, BC and Sweet Cream all ~3%. I felt like 6string was looking for a little more vanilla though.

    I need help with a recipe

    AP is Acetyl Pyrazine. It adds a nutty flavor but it is a mean bunny rabbit and you have to use the stuff real sparingly. A couple of drops in a 15ml bottle is more than enough usually. Perfumers Apprentice - Acetyl Pyrazine 5 PG

    I didn't clean up a spill of the ripe banana from my scale and it left a trench in the scale.

    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    The labels are standard envelope return address sized. I found the Avery labels were not aggressive enough and had to be covered with tape. I eventually settled on a product from Online Labels .com called "aggressive" white matte 2.625 x 1. There are many pre-made templates out there and I...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    Super heavy percentage mixes are ONE way to mix. Nothing wrong with them and one or two of my mixes are in the low 20% but only a couple. I have taken to using less and less flavoring and find them, for the most part, more enjoyable. What I have discovered is that I can take a lot of these...
