    The long steeping you are experiencing can be significantly reduced, if you like, by increasing the percentages of flavoring you are using. 5% flavoring would likely take at least three weeks, or more. Percentages of say 15% - 25% would reduce steeping to perhaps 24 hours and would provide...

    dwcraig's peanut brittle recipe is excellent. As others have mentioned, the dy4 is sweet. As a matter of fact, the "4" designation pertains to the sweetness factor, as there are other dy#'s available. I've always liked the dy4, and while it is often packaged and included in tobacco recipes, it...

    By the way, the syringes I was referring to in my post above can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JLJDQ0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage I would show a picture, but I haven't figured out how to do that since the software debacle upgrade. :toast: :D :2cool...

    I like High Flavor Mixes, frequently 30% flavoring. I also like a 70%/30% VG/PG mix for my gear. As such, I have to mix with 100% VG Nicotine, or else I will exceed the 30% PG in my juices. So, I always buy the 100% VG Nicotine at 100 mg/ml strength, which allows the easiest mixing for me...

    No real starter kit, per se. I use TFA flavorings for the most part and post on the TFA thread here on ECF. You can check out my blogs on DIY'ing to get some ideas, and participate in the TFA thread. Some very great people sharing their experiences there for you and other new mixologists. Come...

    Regarding Sugar Cookies, they are a bit tough with TFA only recipes, as TFA does not have a really great solid cookie base, as several other brands have. So, for starters, that's a tough beginning. However, most sugar cookie recipes are not flavor intensive in terms of a lot of different...

    Makes perfect sense to me, and quite apropos! I feel like I need a shower.....Whisky Tango Foxtrot? I suppose I am not everyone's cup of tea! :toast: :D :2cool: :vapor:

    Thanks, my friend! It helps to not take this stuff so seriously, or personally. It's only a forum, and all kinda folks visit, some quite disturbed, I might add. I try to take the high road, and while challenging, it generally feels the best for the longest time, and I seriously try to avoid...

    Thanks Hittman! I do appreciate the support! From time to time, a long steeper creeps on here and gets quite upset with HFM, 100DT's, etc., and, for some reason, cannot see that this is just another valid way of mixing. It's strengths are in time. It's incredibly easy to get to an ADV in 30...

    I used kayfun's when they first came out and switched to the Taifun. Very similar type of vape, btw. The most important difference is the filling. Taifun is a bottom filler, and so lends itself to refilling the tank quickly and easily. I have about 25 different tanks for the Taifun, so testing...

    :toast: As always, John, I share my opinions on here where I think I can be helpful. Occasionally, I may say something in an in-artful way, as my be the case here, and it comes across as harsh or doesn't sit right with someone. Clearly that is the case with you on this post. I mean no offense...

    I test using the exact same gear that I vape with every day. I don't rewick between tests either. 100DT's gives about 3 mls, which I can vape for 5 minutes and get the clear flavor of the new mix entirely. If I like it, I stop. If I don't, I remix. First of all, you have to mix to the device you...

    At first, try adding your new flavorings to creams, vanillas and sweeteners. You can usually make something pretty good with just four ingredients. TFA flavorings are not meant to be complete mixes on their own. Rather, they are are individual flavorings that, when mixed together, can pretty...

    :D :2cool: :vapor: Really? Sour and tart are highly desirable qualities and difficult to find or replicate. A good starting point for any recipe with artificial flavorings to be sure. Good luck! :toast:

    Sure. Cranberry is another fruit that goes very well with many different base recipes, i.e., cranberry cream, custard, pie, shake, Danish, etc. There are many many fruit recipes on this thread where you can substitute the fruit for the cranberry. Add enough cream, vanilla and sweetener, you can...

    Robert, have you tried all the normal ways to eliminate the chemical/floral notes in the flavorings? They may not work for you, but they do work for me and others. I've blogged about them as well. Just curious.....and sincerely wish to be helpful! :toast: :D :2cool: :vapor:
