    Slim's is not too Shady

    Oh, my word! I was sure hoping you'd have a better result. I didn't have experience with most of your order... ...but I was sure you'd get along with Unicorn Magic, at least. Was really looking forward to you thoughts about Southern Caramel Apple Pie, too. I know misterholidayhouse had some...

    Capellas flavor thread?

    There's been only one forum theme since the XenForo upgrade. So, you can't change the theme...yet. https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/threads/how-do-i-change-the-forum-theme.670456/ You might also want to visit the DIY sub-forum and search for Capella. Good luck!

    Slim's is not too Shady

    @misterholidayhouse - Thanks, as always, for adding your perspective! Personal update: The recent FDA news thread spurred me to buy a DIY kit and 2 liters of 100mg nicotine solution, along with a handful of TFA flavorings. I made a tiny batch of an apple-tobacco concoction that was OK when...

    looking for cheap, yet flavorful tobacco juice

    You might get along well with NiteLite Vapor.

    Nic hit/content help

    The reason vapers go for more wattage (at lower resistance) is to produce denser vapor and flavor, at the cost of more irritation, which is generally dealt with by decreasing nicotine and increasing the VG ratio. One uses more juice this way as well. I've never tried any juice from Five Pawns...

    Nic hit/content help

    FYI - I'm thinking you're pushing way too many watts on that 2.0 ohm coil. Probably best to stay under 9W.

    What's the deal with Mother's Milk?

    I only ever vaped MM at a vape shop's sample bar, on a little eGO kit they had. Then I vaped it again. Then I vaped it some more. Then I put it back and left. It was one of my first "WTH" moments in vaping.

    Nic hit/content help

    1. Typically, long "lung hits" are more comfortable with lower nic, as you've discovered. Take a shorter draw if you want to use up your 6mg liquid without hurting yourself. This would be your least expensive option, obviously. You might find yourself getting used to the 6mg and can stretch out...

    Slim's is not too Shady

    FINALLY I'm updating these five after extensive steeping. I brought them back out a while ago, but I wasn't in the right frame of mind, so I waited a bit longer. Now it feels right.... I'll lead off with the two initial disappointments. Blue Moon is very much improved. The "pixie" taste has...

    Slim's is not too Shady

    @DebbieNY - I've tried Apple Butter and Snake's Blood from your list, and I liked them both. I've only had Slim's flavors at Standard strength, but I don't dislike light flavors, and I think your plan to dilute Heavy-flavored with unflavored nic base if needed is a sound one. Please tell us...

    Best places online to buy E-Juice?

    I think this is a good place to start out: http://www.vapewild.com/ Two sample six-packs will cost just over $30 with the WELCOME10 first-order 10% discount code, which qualifies for free shipping. If you sort their e-liquids by Bestsellers, you should have no trouble picking out a dozen...

    Slim's is not too Shady

    Heheh, I didn't re-order yet, so the charred popsicle stick is still just an idea. A twisted hillbilly idea. Your oak flavoring is a more professional option and you should tell us how it goes! Anyway, glad to hear that Slims is getting you past your Castle Shortage (heh heh heh).... I've got a...

    Slim's is not too Shady

    Ooooh, I wanted Virginia Fire-Cured. I might try it anyway since I sometimes like things differently. Let us know if you change your mind about it, please! IME, tobacco is one of those "must-steep" flavor components.

    Slim's is not too Shady

    So, I want to be sure to get this right when I ask for it: You ordered Black Tea, then specifically requested half-shots each of Caramel and Pear? Thanks again for the running Tobaccos commentary. I wouldn't normally go for Maple-flavored either, but now it may make it into the sampler I'm...

    Slim's is not too Shady

    Jef, mine came to Georgia in about 4 days. I think it took 8 or 9 days to get to @misterholidayhouse in Oregon, but he had a couple "special requests" to cook up, which might have added some processing time. Either way, I'm pretty sure two weeks is plenty. I'll be eager to hear what you think!

    Anyone tried Vaping Veteran's Supplies LLC

    Noted. They're a bit heavy on VG for my taste, but your ringing endorsement can't be overlooked (and the price doesn't hurt either). I see they offer a "PG Shot," too...hope that wouldn't step on the flavor too much. Might try their Two Rooks (Grandmaster clone), Horchata, and Lemon Custard next...

    Slim's is not too Shady

    OK, after side-tracking a bit with other things, I've done Re-visit #2, and there's been a little movement: Applewood Tobacco has fallen a bit in my estimation. I still like the toppers, but as the tobacco steeps forward it's being revealed as the weaker ash-water sort that I don't favor. I...

    Where have all the 50/50's gone?

    Ask for what you want. If I see an intriguing review and want to try it out, I'll send an email to ask if they'll do my 50/50 12mg preference if it's not on the website. Sometimes that works. If you don't ask, how will they know if there's a demand?

    The milkshake is forward, with cinnamon bun in the background. But you definitely taste it.

    Debunk my ADV!

    It shouldn't be too tough to replace a creamy cinnamon vape. I haven't tried TKO, and can't really help you with a recipe, but this might be a good replacement. I liked it. Cinnilla Bun Shake Less expensive, too.
