Ordered 2 30ml. to try 1 peach tobacco and 1 vanilla tobacco. Took 3 days (from order, super shipping time) and waited another 30+ hours to try em:

Niaaaaahhhh mediocre, at best, I thought "thank goodness they have the prices they do." Kinda flavorless, I like a high vg vape but I don't think I should have to buy extra flavor shots just because I do. I did buy 1 for each tho.
That was 2 weeks ago I have since gotten other juices from a couple of other vendors with similar results. the nature of the beast I guess can't like every juice.

Come to find out...both of my mtbaker 30ml. bottles are down to less than 10ml.!! I have been filling an evod or et (aspire bdc (another thing I thought I didn't like)) every day with these flavors. I am not sure if I have just accepted them or if they have gotten better but they have become a staple. I have yet to find my unicorn (all day vape) but I do believe with another flavor shot, mtbaker might end up being a reorder company, (a first for me). Price does not indicate quality as the other juices I got to replace mtbaker are still 3/4 full and cost about twice as much.
I have about 9 clearos in rotation and have had to label them to keep them straight! Only one is worn equally to the mtbakers (from rubbing during refills etc.) my flavour art "shade" tobacco mix made locally. Thanks for reading my mtbaker learning experience.

I just have 25 a week sent automatically sent to my CC. Still in red though due to Black Friday though!! Gonna start school soon so my vaping will be slowing down some since Im not going to be home all the time. WOOHOOO I finally get a life. Been laid off for 6 months and have always worked since I was 16 and now Im 40.

Now I get to go back to school after 20 years but at least I get outta the house now. Won't have to work for the next 2 years so I hope I don't go too crazy!

My butterscotch turned from a nice amber color to coffee black...literally over-night. Is that normal?

Did you, perchance, pour some butterscotch out of your tank and back into the bottle? That'll do it, and often not right away (i.e. the color change will show up the morning after). I keep some empty bottles around for "this is a good vape but I'm ready to switch flavors now and I need somewhere to park the juice currently in the tank."

Seanchai - Thanks for the encouragement. In a way, it will be a relief to get out of this house. We love the space and layout, but the owner has not been keeping up on repairs and is now apparently underwater on the mortgage. Hate to have to uproot my grandson, though. He is 16 and has autism. He was a champ when we moved to California from Ohio, helping with packing, etc., and fantastic on the drive out here. He even managed really well when the (bad word, bad word, bad word) moving company we were foolish enough to hire came 2 days late to get our stuff in Ohio, and then took almost a month to deliver it here.

We have much in common. My sister is autistic, and the move was hard on her too. We've been here about a year and a half now, but some days she still has to revisit the "why we moved" conversation, and we have to step through the whole thing... that the landlord wasn't keeping up the repairs or paying the mortgage, and yes, that was a shame, because we took good care of the house when we owned it, but wasn't it a nice thing that we found the house we have now, and it's okay to miss the old house, but this one is in much better shape, etc etc. She knows all of that but needs to hear it all again for reassurance once in a while.

SnTx4 - Yeah, my grandson was like that when he was younger. We are homeschooling him now. Public schools did a pretty good job teaching him in Pre-K through about 5th grade. He was in a separate class with other students with autism, but the teachers and aides worked with the kids to teach them. Once he hit middle school, they cut his speech and OT times, and were doing mainly reviewing simple math, etc. He got no history, etc. They concentrated on life skills, like doing laundry and brushing his teeth. They laughed at my daughter when she went in for IEP meetings and wanted them to actually teach him new things like history, higher math, etc. Just because he is not comfortable communicating verbally, I think they wrote him off. He is doing much better at home. He is talking more. He is also teaching himself foreign languages by watching movies that he is familiar with. My daughter really agonized about taking him out of public school, but we are really happy she did.

My sister had a *fantastic* middle school teacher, but a terrible high school teacher (terrible in exactly the ways you describe). My parents had divorced by then so unfortunately, home school wasn't an option... but I wish it had been, because I've been trying to *re-teach* everything she lost in high school ever since. It's slow progress.

i noticed a lot of people here have relationships with autistic relatives. if you haven't already, please watch this movie Temple Grandin (TV Movie 2010) - IMDb

temple is an amazing woman and her story is inspiring to all people, autistic or not. :)

and claire danes is awesome in the role of temple.

Yep, great movie. Temple is indeed brilliant. :)

In on topic news, my Sticky Bun is finally starting to smell good... still needs time, but I can tell it'll *get* there now.

Pulled out the black friday stash. It all sat overnight with the caps off and got a good shake as I was headed out the door the morning after it arrived.

Pretty much ignored it after that, other than one round of sniff-and-shake. But I felt a little drippy this evening, and am debating what needs to spend some time in the UC.

So - born on 11/29/2013 (all 63/35 +1)



Eggnog: Definitely getting the spices here - well balanced, and I can tell the eggnog is underneath. But I'm not getting enough eggnog. This'll hit the UC for a bit.

Marshmallow: This is much closer to what I was hoping for out of Toasted Marshmallow, or even Whipped Cream. Nice, creamy, smooth, light flavor. I can easily see mixing this with other juices. I doubt it will see much vaping on its own, however.

Orange Dream Bar: Wow. This vapes like it smells - never thought I'd be fond of fruity vapes. But even though I tend to dislike fruit candies, I used to love dreamsicles as a kid - and this has it nailed. It's strong enough that I'll probably cut it with whipped cream for regular use, however.

Sticky Bun: Good, but needs more time. I see why folks are in love with this - I'm still a cina-omnomnom roll fanatic, however, when I'm voting from the treat side of vapeland. I'll be interested to see what this is like after some UC time.

Pumpkin Spice: Mmmmm.... good now, can't wait to see what it's like when it's steeped more. I think this is going to meet Cake (Yellow) in the post UC future.

Clove: Very nice. I had been debating between this one and black clove - I'll definitely need to put black clove in a future order. I'm also going to let this steep more. As a side note, I decided to mix it with orange dream bar - very interesting flavor. Can't decide whether I'd want to vape more of that mix or not - but it'll be worth exploring!

The others are tobaccos (Ankara and Virginia Fire Cured) - I'm not about to vape them this young. Still getting the very distinctive "I'm an MBV tobacco that needs more steep time" smell from them. Ankara *smells* really good under that, however!

YMMV. Enjoy your evening vapes!

Ugh what a long day. Drove home from work at like 1 mph. Was so scary with all the snow and my tiny hybrid :/ slept a few hours, came back in to work early because I'm afraid of ice. And I think I have pink eye in both eyes....couldn't take off tonight because of the crap weather, but I did tomorrow night. Gotta get to the Dr.
I need some sweetener. I think that's why I don't like my diy stuff.. Is mbvs good? Is it just EM or what? I have 500ml of nic that I wanna make juice with. And like 120 ml of other juice I need to cut.
Their sweetner is great. Em is more flavour than sweetner to me but YMMV.

Yup, I absolutely do that. :oops:

Did a Live Chat with MBV re my Razzleberry Pie. The stuff on the bottom is apparently the flavoring, and they suggested a little heat to get it to re-absorb. Going to try running some hot water over the capped bottle when I change cartos so I can try it later. It smells yummy.
Have not seen the Temple Grandin movie, but my daughter does have one of her books.
