167 right now with 18 more on the way. ELR says I can make 10763 now.
I practice efficiency so I can splurge later at whim.
I used a few popular recipes on ELR to start my stash.
I traded 2 gallons of VG to a friend that retired my favorite commercial juice of all time for his recipe & exclusive rights to it and bought a batch of those flavors to set aside for if I ever figure out how to safely "make it available" to more people.
It's a Peppermint Latte & the craftsmanship is genius.
I searched ELR for each of the flavors that I want for the 1-3 most used in the most used recipes.
I added less used flavorings from recipes by EnyawReklaw, Fresh03 & other high profile mixers.
I made an order from searching Highest Rated recipes on ATF for some recipes I'd like to try.
I watched Developed's "Top Flavors For Beginning Mixers" videos and added the few that I didn't already have.
I'm always taking notes when I watch DIY shows or reading/watching tutorials.
Hi My name's Mowgli & I'm addicted to collecting flavorings & useful recipes now apparently
.
I'm not a stickler on brands, for the most part a flavor is a flavor and doesn't differ much between brands (now there are a few that are obviously better but for the most part I buy what's cheap)
river supply is your best bang for your buck (or it was before the mail ban, not sure now...haven't checked)
I hit up their clearance section....lots of 15mls for under $1.50 and used to be free shipping over $50
I have no idea how many flavors I have LOL! You mean I'm supposed to keep track?! LOL

I stopped counting somewhere around 330

need to update my spreadsheet
I don't use elr's flavor stash thing because there again I don't really pay attention to brands just the flavor so it's not that helpful to me...I use
Juice Calculator which I can put in all of my flavors but it doesn't really tell you how many you have so I export the ingredient list and make my own spreadsheet. and then broke my stuff down into categories because I somehow ended up with 4 different guavas since they are named differently and yeah I don't need 4 different version of a guava flavor

or 3 different mango flavors....because i'd look up the name to see if I had it and I didn't so bought it and then was like ug I already have this flavor just in a different name/brand
now chocolates yeah I know why I have 17 different ones of those, because I don't like any of them...can't find a good one so bought several different ones and then some that were recommended from the random thread folks that I still need to try.

flavorings are like pokemon

gotta catch 'em all
