Did you try it? If not, it's worth a try. Yes, you still need to leave it alone for a day or two, but from what I've done there's no comparison with simply leaving it to 'age' naturally
Castle long clone recipe? Anyone?

I've done the hot water bath a few times. Haven't used a crock pot method though. The wife wouldn't like a kitchen takeover lol
But it's so well worth it - it can save literally weeks for juices that need it (many don't of course)!
With the crock pot method, does it change in color at all? My one RY4 blend goes to a deep caramel color when it's ready.
Yup - that's exactly what it does. As the nic oxidizes the mix turns darker!
thanks curly, it still needs work and refinement, but i like the taste until i make it better. time does improve. i am staying on the fence about heat. that's a whole other project i wish someone would scientifically answer once and for all.
I'm going to need to try this, where can I do my online one stop shopping? I never tried DIY juice but it's time to start learning, doesn't look be to hard to do. I guess it's trial and error in the beginning.
Bull City Vapor Has everything you'll need. Cheap prices, quality products, fast shipping and GREAT customer service! If you ever need help Drew over there is very helpful, almost seems like a good friend, I've had numerous back and forth emails with him, genuine guy.
You can get 6ml bottles of flavoring for less than $1.50 and get a bunch of different ones to try different recipes also syringes are a must! I imagine there will be a 4th sale going on.
I made this recipe last night - it's excellent. Thanks for sharing it.
visited bull city. nice link for diy. will place an order to get the FA flavors for headinclouds recipe. yes there is a sale until the 5th. good time as any to stock up some more.
bull city order has already shipped. i mentioned in the comments that i was referred to their site on ECF thanks to Curly. i know that won't mean anything to them but like a pyramid i will refer folks there as well. i see myself being a long time customer of bull city vapors. one of the only sites i have seen that specializes in diy.
i have begun substituting some flavors other than TFA into the recipe with great success. as i said earlier, it can only get better and it has. i was getting some scorching above 9 watts using all TFA flavors and that is now gone with the subs i have applied so far. after i get a chance to try FA, i will try all the options heads up to find the best of the best and rewrite the clone. i want to attempt grandmaster and lucena next. never tasted them yet but like the profiles and want to add more ADV options to this one and my new tobacco replacement. hopefully, the flavor lab i am creating will make future cloning/profiling attempts much easier.
thanks ECF members for all the input
A-ha! It was you! Lol I have recommended them to everyone I know and come across! Actually, you should know how great Drew is over at Bull City! He sent me a great email with a sincere thank you! He went out of his way to just say thanks! That's great CS imo! Glad to see you like the site! He's still expanding so it'll only get better!
Curious to see where this goes!
Ive been following this thread for a few days. I havent tried any Five Pawns but all the flavors sound interesting. I had to order a couple of the flavors I was missing from the recipe but its now out of the hot water bath and sitting for a day or two. It already smells great! Cant wait to try it in a day or two!

A quick update. I had mixed a small 5 ml batch the other day and it the AP was pretty much the lead flavor. But never the less it was fantastic! I mixed up a 30 ml bottle of it and its in the drawer aging as I type. It smells a tad different, as in not so AP forward this time. Cant wait to try some! Good going on figuring out this recipe!
I just made the first recipe (the one that uses tfa flavors) and it is very good. Got all the flavors from Bull City Vapors (Drew walked the extra mile to fulfill my order) Awesome service and fast shipping, as usual. Ok, the only change I made to the recipe was lowering the AP to 1% and it worked right. I believed 1.5% would have been too overwhelming, (an extra drop of it can ruin a mix). Ok, lol, I've never tasted Castle Long so I can't say other than this recipe tastes very good right away. I foresee that after a couple of weeks steeping it will be just awesome. Thanks for posting it!
