    At my daughters so I get the weekend off from sft's:)

    I have 8 flavors on my BCF wishlist and 1 is a refill I need. I had 9 but I dumped one so far. 2 of the flavors I have there is Cap Fizz Pop and RF Soda Base. Anyone have opinions on those 2?

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

    At 20% the flavor is plenty strong but sometimes it makes me cough when I first vape it after not having vaped anything for a while. I remember that my raspberry yogurt used to do that and it was a high flavor mix.

    I haven't heard anyone else mention the Dripping recipe in a while. Mine did get better after a steep and I have a bottle mixed with the right strawberry that should be ready this weekend. I do wish it had a little bit thicker mouth feel to it.

    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.

    My sister, whose teeth and gums have plagued her all her life, has at times used a bleach solution with a water flosser. Not fun, but a great way to get into all the nooks and crannies.

    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 :thumb:
    Thanks, @AngeNZ. I'm studying up on wire and building. It's kind of frustrating, really, because it seems like it could be so fun, but my clumsy hands and erratic eyes make fine work very difficult. I'll see how it goes. Wishful thinking right now.

    I have not tried RF Soda Base although it is on my shopping list. No help from me.

    I LOVE RF Soda Base - it really does give a good perception of effervescence used at about 2%. The downside for you is that it is quite sweet. CAP Fizz Pop I have not tried but read on Reddit that it is very sugary and doesn't give the perception of effervescence. Not everyone seems to get the effervescence that I do from some fizzy flavors but RF Soda Base is great for me.

    My Piña Coladashttp://..................../flavor/143
    FA Coconut 2.5%
    FA Cream Fresh 2%
    CAP Golden Pineapple .80%
    VTA Light Rum 1%
    FA Jamaican Special (Jamaican Rum) 1%
    FA Lime Tahiti (Distilled) .25%
    INW Pineapple 3%
    VTA Sugarloaf Pineapple 3%

    Thanks for the warnings:) my wishlist just got lighter.

    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.

    Some people say that they can taste Koolada (I cannot) but I haven't heard anyone say that they can taste WS-23. We are all different so if you say you do, I believe you do.

    That recipe is on my list of mixes to make up. I think I’ll try it without any cooler to start with. I’m looking forward to get it done. Glad you’re enjoying it.

    I have both but haven’t tried either or done sft’s yet on them. I’ll be looking forward to others opinions on them.

    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.

    I RARELY come up with my own recipes. I find one I like make a small amount (10ml) then tweak it to my own preferences.

    I’m not creative enough plus I figure anything I can come up with has probably been done before and better by a more experienced mixer.

    Maybe at some point in my mixing future I’ll create more of my own.

    I have come up with a couple that are ok but not many. I don't really count two flavor mixes that I've liked. Pudding base is good with about any fruit in my opinion.

    I’ve been waiting to make that putting everyone’s feedback filed away.

    That’s helpful because I have it but haven’t used it yet.

    Tbh 2 flavor mixes may be all that I can do physically right now so any are helpful.
