I made some lew's brew last night. First time I've ever tried it. It's extremely different. It reminds me a lot of like alcoholic desert drinks. Irish coffee. Brandy chocolate stuff. Etc. I can't pick out individual flavors except maybe toffee the banana really blends in

What does steeping this juice usually do to it? Sweeten it up, separate the flavors, add depth, or not much?

It's interesting but I'm not sure if I like it yet or not even after a tank. I have enough concentrate to make a quarter of a liter so I better like it!

@Pictor I'm waiting on some percentages from chefs that were not in you're notes, I'll let you know when I receive them. From my entire order they only had lew's brew and lemon coconut cake listed. The rest are quite new flavors I think. I found a forum conversation from a year ago where they stated they would be putting mix rates up but it hasn't happened yet that I can find.

If I missed you all Sunday then happy Monday to you all. Enjoy your week! I'm stuck combing through the overly complicated world of choosing a new health plan, which since Obama's plan went into effect has doubled in cost and halved the benefit (it has nothing to do with my political stance - it just was labeled his plan so that's how it's referred to!). As well as not carrying most doctors of stature. It's a nightmare but fortunately something only done once a year.

Bob you are a star. Thank you so much for explaining :)

I'm using a SUBOX Mini with SUBTANK Mini and Nano.

When I get my delivery from FT I'll just play around with the pre coiled wires and test them on the ohm meter reader resistance tester until I'm more confident to use them.
Subox minimum resistance is .3 for what it's worth. Typically you won't find many coils off by almost half. So you have some wiggle room. More important I ink is making sure you don't ground it by accident somehow - like have it pushed down until it touches the bottom which would be bad. It's nice to see you being adventurous and working all this stuff out. Good for you

I think you'll find that in error, Chefs have the Banoffee Cookie description on Lew's Brew too!
Been a while since I had any Lew's Brew, but it's a coffee flavour, and there's no banana or toffee in it.

What does steeping this juice usually do to it? Sweeten it up, separate the flavors, add depth, or not much?
In some cases, there's not a huge difference after a few days, but in others, the flavours blend and develop to give more flavour.

Terry likes it, and I think he blends his with Devon Cream or Sweet Cream ...he'll let us know which when he sees this.
Chances are, now you know what it is you're supposed to be tasting, you may find you do like it ...(auto suggestion etc.) ;)

Do you mean other ranges & brands such as Rebranded, One on One etc. ? If so, I have quite a lot of the percentages for the other ranges & brands. Let me know what, and if I have them, I'll let you know :)

As I write, there's a minute of Sunday left ..so happy Sunday and Monday! :)
Good luck with the health plan!

Yes, no banana or toffee :laugh: I do like lews brew ready made, or made from concentrate mixed at 90% lews & 10% Devon cream, and even better i find it doesn`t need any steeping IMO :)

I see that currently, the Chefs Vapour concentrates aren't on the site ...perhaps the reformulated ones are being put back :)

Had a FT order shipped this morning,CN post,will it make it here by Christmas ??? :unsure:
I had a small order shipped on Saturday, hoping it will make it in time, not that it really matters if it doesn't, still waiting for a delivery from Vanilla Vapes in Camberley, Surrey posted on 03/12, although,

Vapemail George's:rules:: my Balance Charger from Amazon and some leads for it from eBay both ordered 10/12 have just been delivered.

I'm not holding much hope really Bob,just wishful thinking.May possibly reach us between the holidays.
But they probably shut up shop or have a skeleton staff on at Thiefrow,probably get stuck there.

Think they already have a skeleton staff on there, that's why most of our stuff is getting delayed - not going to order any more from abroad until after Crimbo and then we have to watch out for 2nd week in Feb when it is

Another one,about the pending court case against FP,i think it was on one of his Sunday night What's up vids.
But the guy does a vid almost every day,can't spot it now.But it's fairly recent.
The problem with FP is that they totally deny there is a problem, instead of dealing with it and putting a warning on the affected juices, just looked at the Vaporshark testing and even Beard juices except #64 are also affected - TBH I'm not too worried about it, but it would be nice to know anyway - it gives people the choice.
