I noticed you liked AM4A-inw, what percentage do you mix it at? I'm having a little trouble with it... getting it right that is.
Like I said in a previous post, strong flavors are not my thing. I mix am4a at 4%, you could start there and always increase to taste.

Trying to come up with a vanilla tobacco(many tries), my latest adventure.
Soho-fa-4%
Vanilla custard-cap-4%
Simply vanilla-cap-.1%(1 drop)
Will this work? Been steeping since 6/12.

I have tried several recipes that uses Soho only and find that it is not for my taste although it is a popular one from what I have seen. I do a mix has both FA Soho and FA RY4 in it. I mix 4% each — sometimes I up the RY4 to 5%.

Me too. Just mixed yesterday. How long should I let it sit?

Seven days.

I just remembered the Orange Marmalade/Mandarin combo was tasty however I needed more of it. I think next time I mix this I will shorten the steep time and try at three days first and see what happens. YMMV.

If you're a fan of the Aegis Solo or you want to try one ...FT has the all Black one for 30% off, so $30.80 w/free S/H. Use code fasttech at Checkout. 3 of them for the neighbor and me have shipped already.

They also have the Black w/various trim colors. Use the MAP code, for $33 + change, but some are several days out from shipping.

Took stock on my nic. I have 1 1/2 litre of 60mg plus 240ml in the fridge all bought back in 1012-13. I have 2 120ml bottles of 100mg VG nic I was gifted. Lastly, I have 1 litre of 100mg. Enough you think?

Uh, depends. What is your vaping %, how much do you vape per day, and how long until you stop vaping? ;)

This calculator, from a member, Juice Calculator has a tool to plug in what concentrated nic you have and all the other variables to make an estimate of how much you'll need for the long haul.

I should correct myself, there is one synthetic tobacco I likes, but I haven't mixed it in years ;
DX 555 Tobacco (TFA) - 3%
Honey (TFA) - 2 %

Let it steep a few weeks, gives a nut-and-honey tobacco taste.
But as I said, I haven't mixed that in quite a whlle.

Soho needs to be mixed at a fairly high percentage. My sweet spot is 14%, which I know seems high but this has been a common complaint regarding Soho. I don't know if you have ever tried Halo's Prime 15, but Soho reminds me of it a lot.
To me, Prime 15 tastes a bit like crispy turkey skin. I quite liked it, though I haven't vaped it for a while. I still have some and gave it a sniff the other day. Yup, the skin of a well-roasted turkey.

LOL it taste like hints of chocolate scooped out of an ashtray to me. I ain't talking about one of those cheap five and dime ones either, no the blown artisan stained glass kind.

The only problem with vaping honey, is that it doesn't smell so good.

    @FranC - Didn't you just post the other day that you'd also gotten 1L of 6mg nic base from someone? It's not on your nic stock list. :)
    Yes, I have that also plus I just mixed a litre of base mix

    I'm at a loss at what to do with that. I'm not very tech savvy at all.

    I vape 6mg and a guess would be 6ml a day (maybe 8 to be safe if I'm chain vaping). I have no intention of stopping.
