Odd - perhaps it is the power - I'll try putting the MVP as high as it'll go and see!. Cody likes it and there's good comments about it on NT too. A lot of them use REO's though. - the Humming Bird gives me exactly what it's supposed to be, as does Band Camp. Can't taste much in the way of cherry in the Round House though. The cherry 'topping' that'll be sold for the Cheesecake may help with that! Apparently, he makes good cherry flavour!

That'll teach you to go looking for cuckoos! :laugh:

Yes, most likely. I'm not getting hopes up for that or the PBC and Oreo ...I suspect there won't be a max VG sadly. Think it's the only one he makes with chocolate too.
___________________________________________________________________________

I just placed an order with CV for some Posset: 30ml .6 and 30ml of Zero! :) Plus some Pink Spot Frozen Lime Drop Flavouring.
I was looking at the FlavourArt ones too ...and found the UK website to check what some of them are ....I saw that they'll do ready to use ones custom made with plenty of nicotine strength choices, VG as an option and they'll blend any of their flavours together too!
I got 3 x 10ml @ 4.5mg of Velvet Cloud (VG) just in single flavours: Bilberry, Cookie, and Passion Fruit. I'll likely mix the Bilberry & Cookie to make a 'pie' :laugh:
If they're good I'll try a few others.

Terry - I checked: there's no grapefruit. Only a citrus mix with it.

Okay, thanks trish. I have to say that when ian sent me some gravity, i also thought it was very nice. It gave me a different profile flavour every time i picked it up-weird but nice.:D

I have just cleaned another kayfun and filled it with the bavarian cream, and i will report back when i have give it a blast. Just got about half a tank of posset to get through then i will try the upside down pineapple cake.

Ian, i have sorted out all your samples mate, and will get them to you this week :)

:offtopic: I watched a cracking film last night - seraphim falls. pierce brossnan, liam neeson. It was on bbc 2 . I have just looked on catch up tv, and it`s there to download if anyone is interested. Highly recommended though.

Were you using it at higher power too?
I'll have to try mine again!

I've put a reminder on Guardian TV - they'll put it on my daily reminder list when it comes back on TV!

Trisha, I noticed you were after a oreo type juice. well MBV have it, it`s on their 2nd page under sweet flavours. They have named it cookies and cream. :)
OK thanks! :) If NT don't do it in VG, I'll probably try it! :) Lots of people have good things to say about NT's.

Yes it would have been high trish, i ususally build my coils @ around 1.4 ohms, and with a fresh battery that would equate to ??? Ian :laugh:

You will love it trish, it has got a real good story line. :)

They sent me a coupon code save10now for 10% off, you may want to try it if you do order trish. I have just placed another order with them and got...some more blue moo...Coffee...Pina Colada...And Berry Creamy. All have got very good reviews, and i have yet to find a really good coffee vape, Lews brew is nice from chefs, but just not coffeeish enough if you know what i mean.:laugh: The one from MBV is supposed to taste like maxwell house.:p

Very long time since I saw a western!

So, were the Bavarian Cream and Pineapple USD cake good?
I like mixing Lews Brew with their Caramel Cappuccino ...but, you could always get a bottle of their concentrate and add a bit to yours? Suppose it's no different to getting extra flavour added from other suppliers.

Yes it will trish, i think ian knows how to work it out into voltage etc, so he will let us know later.:D It`s not a western as such like cowboys and indians, more the civil war. :)

Not keen on the bavarian cream at all trish, it just seems to have a funny taste to it. I will leave it another week or so, to see if it improves. the USD cake i haven`t tried yet. Maybe tomorrow. :)

I got a Bavarian Cream early on in my liquid adventures ...quite liked it new, used it a few times and then left it a while but only recently dug it out & tried it again when Bob got some and liked it ...nicotine was too high for what I use now, so I thought the ick taste was down to that ...perhaps not! To me it had quite a cloying taste.
Try putting a bit of it in something like GCD to use it up ...or not! ;)


________________________________________________________________________________________________


On Friday, I rinsed a BVC coil and soaked it in mildly soapy warm water .... left it overnight. Then soaked it overnight in vodka, rinsed it this morning and soaked it in clean water a few hours, then rinsed again with warm running water ...set it in a stand to dry off ready for when I want to try it to see how well it washed.

Just been to NT's forum and saw this:
Quick heads up on the BVC coils, I have been using the same head for about 1 week now and I've been noticing the draw getting tighter than when I first started using it.So took out of my tank and thought maybe since there is now a metal "screen" in the coil head maybe burnt gunk was building up blocking it all up.Using tissue and Q-tips I started cleaning and wiping the screen...and whoa was it ever built up.It took about 5 or so mins until there was no more black gunk on it.I put i back in and the air flow was back to normal.

So, I got a cotton bud and gently put it down the chimney and swizzled it around ..couldn't even see anything down the chimney, but got quite a surprise: looked like black oil or soot on the end of it! After a few more swirls I could actually see the silver/metal mesh clearly!
I'm really surprised that all that running warm water, soaking and vodka didn't move it! I could actually see through the side holes that the lining material was white again too after cleaning/washing.

After I'd done that, I tried doing it with the one I'm using! I found that the gunk came off the rinsed & soaked one easier, and left it totally bright metal. The one I'm using hasn't come quite as clean so easily, but the draw is improved and the liquid tastes much better :)

I just thought to cast caution to the wind and up the watts to 9 Ooh! much better! So, I'll need to remember that when the coils are a few days old with something like the Mint Choc Vapetto


Totally off topic ...if that Taylors ad twittering bird doesn't do one I'll scream! :laugh:

Oh she's definitely keeping me in check - apart from the spending that she doesn't know about - sssshhh, don't tell her :laugh:

A forum member on AAEC got drunk once, left the computer logged in, so his wife took a picture and posted it on the forum, the amount of stick he got from everyone went on for days and days afterwards, so be careful what you say :evil::D

Downloading now on my Sky Box and will watch it later in the week - like both those actors.

I forgot to mention that FT are now selling replacement glass tanks for the kayfuns, Have you seen them ian ?. I don`t usually bother with cracking juices so i won`t bother getting any, but it`s good to know they are there.

Must have missed those mate, wonder if they put them up while I was away. I'll have a look later though.

Okay, thanks trish. I have to say that when ian sent me some gravity, i also thought it was very nice. It gave me a different profile flavour every time i picked it up-weird but nice.:D

It's always the same for me. I vape it a bit, come back to it a few days later and it tastes totally different - it's a weird juice like that.

Cheers Terry, I'll have a try at the samples before I order anything. I really need to go through my juices and gear, but I've hardly done anything vape related since getting back. I've not cleaned any tanks out from the holiday yet, just charged up a few batteries, that's it.

Glad you've found a post that helps Trisha. It's always good when someone else has had the same problem and found a good fix for it. Must admit, it surprises me sometimes the amount of gunk that can build up where you don't expect it too. Especially the fluff under the bed :laugh:

Don't worry Bob. My lappy automatically goes to sleep after 5 minutes and needs a password to boot back up. The Wife will never guess that my password is "Ian-is-wonderful" :laugh: So no chance of her sneaking a look ;)

With a 4.2 volt battery, 1.4 ohm coil, pulling (at a guess around 3 amps from the battery), I believe it's about 12.6 watts :D

The one we had though was from VapeMate, the MBV one might not be the same, I've found that with other flavours.

True! Do you still like yours? I found it a bit sickly when I went back to it for more than a couple of minutes.

I normally vape Gravity at higher wattage, so it could make a difference. I'm just sad that it's not green anymore - loved the way it looked in a tank :D

When I clean out my Kayfuns, I give them a good wash and when I come to dry them, there's usually still some gunk in the top of the chimney section.

Under my bed is fluff free now, cos I vacuumed today - the Wife said I had to :blush::laugh:

Yes there are some really annoying ads on tv trish, the churchill ones spring to mind, the ones with that bloody dawn french in. She would be nothing without jen saunders, who actually wrote all her material. And now jen seems to have gone off the scene, french is just washed up, and nothing.

Well back on topic.:laugh: It`s great that you can clean some of your coils now trish, no matter which way you do it :) Should save you some pennies in the long run.

A brilliant film bob. I had seen it a couple of years ago, and enjoyed it then. :D

We could do with tiny 'bottle brushes' for such jobs! :)

That's why I know nothing about that ...I don't do the upstairs - my area is all of downstairs vacuuming, cleaning & washing/laundry ..husband does upstairs vacuuming, dusting and bathrooms :)

Yes, the Churchill one too ...can't say I like either French or Saunders to be honest.
Our youngest was a copywriter for over 20 years, and he did some great ads - opened our eyes to how bad some of them are!

Well back on topic.:laugh: It`s great that you can clean some of your coils now trish, no matter which way you do it :) Should save you some pennies in the long run.
Yes, hope so - always nice if they can be made to last a bit longer ...I hate waste! :)

Ian, if you like i will send you ALL this bavarian cream mate. I have put up with it for about 3 hours now, hoping it would grow on me but nope. I forgot to tell you as well the samples i am sending you are all 24 mg, but you can dilute them to taste.

My most recent orders have all been 24 mg. cos of the bother i was having wi me gob:laugh: but the order i placed earlier are all 18 mg. Like trish said it could be the fact that they are high nic, it may change the flavour a bit, although the other 3 taste brilliant.
