I know
I've contacted the post office. Apparently there was a hiccup somewhere in Hazelwood, the last stop before it hits my post office. Usually once I see that it hits Hazelwood, I can expect it the next day. When I spoke with the lady at the post office, she said there was no way to actually call the office out there, rather, she had emailed them, and said she'll call me back when she gets some information...
She said that the package may of got damaged, and/or, some sort of mix up. Guess I'll just have to wait it out.

man i hope it isnt damaged.. i think that it might have gotten lost for a second or they must have overlooked it or something.. sometimes my packages come in very small. and i can understand if they loose it... (not at all... i would be very angry actually, im just trying to be nice i guess).. im waiting on 2 packages.. one from WL (like always) and one from Leafonly.com cant wait for both because the leaves are coming and the pg is coming also... ohh shhhhhhiii

I don't live near there but I've had at least one order come through there that I never received. It just never reappeared after it supposedly passed through. Then the vendor sent a replacement that kept scanning there for 3 days. When I got the package it looked like it had been caught in some machinery and then run over. Luckily nothing was damaged. I feel for you.
I have to say the USPS service has really gone downhill since the last round of cuts.
Third time I'm writing this post. Love to break my IPAD in half right now
I've felt for a few months now that the rich chocolate/banana VZflavors (black and mild, dun hill and a few more) would be a great start for a Bb/GJ replica
Worth noting as we'll that VZ tobaccos are purportedly tobacco extractions
I believe this is probably true to some extent because a pipe extraction I've done multiple times smells and tastes 99% like Old Captain from VZ, now discontinued. Gunks coils and burns just like it too lol

Could you verify that the VZ flavors you used were the Super Concentrate version of those flavors and that you did not dilute them before adding?
Thanks!
Thanks!
I get 48-52 with VZ SC flavors, but I have a fat thumb
Def no where near 20
I have a weak little thumb .. have to squeeze super hard for each drop and each drop takes a while to form .. maybe my drops are bigger because of that? Or maybe the holes on my dropper end is bigger. I dont use pipettes, I use the VZ bottle dropper itself.
yeah I'm sure individual squeeze makes a huge difference, when I use the VZ flavors they are so thin that I just turn them upside down and give them a little love tap lol
whatever it is, its certainly the case that ETOH > PG > VG for drops per ml, pretty much everyone gets something closer to 40 for the SC flavors.

I get 40 drops from the VZ bottles.
I have several variations of my version steeping. probably need another week for the tobacco to start coming through.
I have some VZ Blended Tobacco that is very nice that I will try next.

Well, I made a 10ml batch @ 12mg/ml 30/70 using the latest B&M recipe. For the DIY'ers I used the Super Concentrated versions of VZ B&M and VZ Coconut.
I let it steep for a day then tried it this evening. Pretty darn tasty. The Graham Cracker and Cinnamon balance well. I added two drops of vinegar and two drops of TFA Sweetener. It's close.. a little more tweaking.

I 2nd the B&M tasting like Choco Milk, and also tried this recipe and it doesnt mimic Bubas Bounty with my taste buds, but may to some where all different with taste.

Let us know you're recipe and we can help.
We must be because I've never thought B & M tastes like chocolate milk.
This version of my recipe is still the closest so far.
3% Cinnamon Danish(TPA)
3% Graham Cracker(TPA)
6% Black & Mild SC(VZ)
1% Coconut SC(VZ)
1% Mts Vape Wizard(FA)
I tried several versions varying the percentages of each ingredient trying to get the raisin taste to come out but just cant seem to do it.
I found some other recipes that were using absynth and caramel or Hazelnut. so I am trying a new variation with hazelnut and it is very good also.

I tried the (TFA) Raisin but it is not the same. There is a rasin flavor that comes through in the first recipe that tastes like the raisin flavor in boba's. It is just muted and only comes through every once and a while. there is also a light nutty flavor in boba's that I don't get in my first recipe. I'm hoping the Hazelnut is that flavor that is missing.
I mixed up a batch of Hazelnut at 7% to test and it is very good. It has a nutty and graham cracker
note to it. Tonight I will try the secong recipe replacing the graham cracker with the Hazelnut.
VZ has a SC Hazelnut flavor also.
I'll be interested to see how the Hazelnut works. I have some TFA Hazelnut on-hand. I might also drop the B&M down 1-2% and/or lower the overall flavor percentage. I have this mix and Boba's in like Genesis-style tanks and I'm switching between them. The Boba's flavor seems more muted, although this mix has only been steeping for a day.

Agreed.
When I got my first order of Boba's about 4 to 5 weeks ago, I speed steeped it in a Ultrasonic cleaner for 30mins and then let it sit for a week and a half before trying it. At first it tasted like cinnamon, graham cracker and coconut and I liked it. I started trying to clone it then and came up with a very good replica. Then somewhere between week 3 and 4 Bobba's changed. The Cinnamon and Grahm cracker and coconut faded and the raisin, chocolate and nut flavor came out of hiding.My recipe seems to follow the same steeping pattern. It starts out cinnamon, Graham cracker with a hint of chocolate. After a few weeks the cinnamon and graham cracker start to fade, The hint of chocolate stays and a hint of raisin comes out.
I have tried changing the B&M from 2.5% through 10% at .5% increments with no luck. The chocolate notes get weeker or stronger with the differences in amount but not the raisin note. I am now hoping that one of the other flavors is combining with the Hazelnut to give the raisin flavor.
I tried the Rum Raisin SC from VZ and it tastes like welches grape juice. LOL.
