Why close the original thread? Bored moderator or what?

I would contact the offending mod, but which one? He/she didn't even have the courtesy to leave their 'name'!

I'm thinking of Turtle Cheesecake to make with Capella's NY Cheesecake....

Actual recipe:

2 cups vanilla wafer crumbs
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
14 ounces individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 cup chopped pecans
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1/2 cup white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 eggs
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

I'm thinking the store bought one I had was with an Oreo cookie crust though.....From a Sam's warehouse or Costco place....

Wow does that ever look yummy! I'll be looking forward to your recipe. Capella's cheesecake is so addictive, isn't it?

Cap sugar cookie on a lr carto with a 3.7v battery...15% flavor , 70pg/30vg, 12 mg nic..steeped for 8 days, added nic on 8th day.

Sugar cookie is amazing. I like strong flavors. This one I had to leave sit in another room until my palate tone down from constant, deep, coffee vape. After a few puffs, I got it and it's magic. The lr carto provided a bit more warmth than is needed for this usually room temp served cookie. The taste of the actual cookie part just changes if it gets too warm in the carto. I seriously tasted some of the sprinkles and icing sometimes added to sugar cookies, Not on the exhale, but more on my taste buds about 10 seconds after exhale....After an hour I can't just blurt "this is not strong enough flavor to be an all day vape"..simply because it's so simple and yet so complex. Subtle, but enough flavor, enough flavor. It's nice.

Can anyone chime in on this....?
I like my flavors pretty strong, not slap you in the face strong, but strong.
I've been mixing my Capellas flavors at 15%, and even with steeping, don't seem to me as strong as premixed I've purchased.
I did two at 20% I believe, would have to check my notes again, and it isn't much better.

Is it just me? I know I read where too much flavor can actually have the opposite effect and taste weaker.
Any clue what I may be doing wrong?
I'm only using 1 flavor, maybe 2.

For instance, I mixed up 10ml:
5ml 100% VG nic base
3ml PG
1.5ml Lemon Lime
.5ml Cotton Candy (wizard labs' cotton candy he told me was basically EM)

Thinking the EM/Cotton Candy needs to be "counted" to get the nic ratio right.
It's good, but could be better. Do I need more of the Capellas flavors? Thought I read 15% for most of them.
