Random DIY mixing and More

[Letitia]

Next is VTA Butter Toffee Base. You might think this is an odd flavor for me to buy but I've had pretty good results with VTA flavors not being too sweet. This has steeped over a month now. I like it,very tasty. Have to give some though at what to mix with it though.

Coffee or pecan shortbread cookie sounds good.

sorry I've finally started back to work....I've been on bed rest since the start of february with influenza....man i am absolutely beat, exhausted and hurt badly everywhere but not that much coughing fits so that's good...but uff get short of breath and dizzy easily.

Three months of flu? That's horrific!

Does anyone write out recipes in a small notebook? I plan on making both paper and digital copies. Although, I just got a new SSD, my laptop boots up and everything loaded in about 10 seconds now
not a bad idea to have stuff on paper like the good ol days though

I hate writing things by hand, so I copy recipes onto my computer. Eventually, I'll print them out and put them in a loose-leaf binder. Since I'll be able to fit more than one on a page, I'll number the pages and create an index. That will need to be updated regularly, of course, which will be a pain, but easier than trying to write legibly.

I'm a bit of both. I write on the juice bottle labels (masking tape ) percentages of each main flavour used, date made, any revisions etc. Also use the comment/note section of the recipe for more detailed notes.
Here's an example:

So, I managed to install a coil in the Berserker RDA clone, having watched Vaping with Vic and DJSlb's how-to
videos. Made a couple of dumb mistakes, of course. First, I neglected to remove the barrel when I was putting in the coil, which made that job much more difficult (quel surprise!). Then, after being horrified by the harshness of the vape, I realized I hadn't stuck in the air flow insert. Doing that made a big difference. Duh. But, in the end, everything seemed to work. I need to do some fine-tuning--the coil should be positioned a bit better, I think--but, all in all, I'm pleased. Can't say I see myself becoming an avid builder, but this little RDA is definitely going to cut down my dread of testing flavors. Who knows? Maybe I'll even wick it someday.

You are a superstar

Congrats on doing your first ever coil build. Completely 100% fit and capable people struggle, so you proved to them it's possible, no matter what condition your body is in

I write mine on index cards and keep them in a file, in addition to having them stored on EcigVape.com. I use one of their eliquid calculators, too. Don't have to download anything, and I can access it and my saved recipes from anyone's computer, smart phone, etc.

I've tried using a notebook a couple of times. I like the index card idea better. More flexible to work with.

thanks, I forgot about mascarpone...I have Purilum Cookie, haven't tried it yet




hello and welcome
if you haven't already, I suggest getting a good juice calculator.... ejuicemeup is a good one I used forever but now I'm using this one and love it: Juice Calculator

Sorry you’ve been ill. Hope you’re feeling better now.

I put all my Notes in the Notes or Comments section on Elr. I download it monthly to backup to my iPad.

I put all my recipes and notes on paper.

I just started keeping a few notes. I honestly am not very good at coming up with original recipes and have mostly been using others I find.

Nothing wrong with that,hitt

I use a notebook cause I don't want computer, phone near my mixing station but I like the recipe card idea.

K stabbing self with toothpick of bleach and brushing with it is not that bad. The main hard part is not getting it on my hands. Then I just smell like bleach all day.

I looked on line it's a "thing" I guess. I hope it helps, I do feel like I am slowly deflating like that Violet kid in Willie Wonka.

I mixed a new bottle of tarte au citron last night and cut it down from 20%(recommended) to 15%. I'm not going to clean the tank out. I'll just transition to the 15% and see if it seems better.

Do let us know cos I mixed it at the recommended 20% too. At 20% it is a bit sweet.

Tested out my 1 shot from Chefs “Custard Cream” & I mixed it @ 16.75% instead of the recommended 18-21.5% because I got the 10ml 1 shot & @16.75% I can get 2/30ml bottles. Mixed 4/8 & it’s really good. From the 2 I got Tarte Au Citron & Custard Cream I feel their mixing % are based on commercial ejuice as the % are on the higher side.

Mixed up Hic’s Pina Colada recipe but doubled the % & added for the 1st time .75% WS-23 & I like it!

 

[NotSoMini]

I too received the email from Chef’s and although 20% off can be very tempting I am going to pass on. One of the flavors on my shopping list is a RF concentrate that they do not have and is why it is on my BCF list. My list is still short at five flavors three of which are refills and the other two are new for me. Actually out of the three refills, one I can only get from ECX. Can’t decide to order the four from BCF now or wait a little longer.

This reminds me of the Malibu clone.

Do you get a cooling effect and can you taste the WS-23? I tried it once and I could taste it so never used it again.

Yes I get the cooling effect but I can’t taste the WS-23. It’s quite good to me.
