View attachment 826339 WLLMC formerly owned “Mama J’s Flavoring Co.” now works at Bull City Vapors. Created this recipe for me :wub:

Wow, that looks (sounds) delicious! Damn, I could have sworn that I had the VTA, but these are the only apples that I have: :grr:
- Granny Smith Apple (VTA)
- Double Apple (Cap)
- Fuji Apple (FA)

I'll save this for later and check in on the thread. Thanks, @Heartsdelight !

I was a mixin' fool on Saturday morning (Good thing, too, because by mid-afternoon, I was a 'migraine' mess & slept for about 12 hours :():
  • Truckin's Bourbon Cream (20ml)
  • @Skeebo 's Bourbon-Brown Sugar Milkshake (20ml) <-- Steep, please?
  • Ella's Shortbread Biscuit (20ml)
  • Kringle's Curse (Clone) (90ml, because I already finished the 50ml that I made about month ago)
  • Added 50% more flavor to @Skunk! 's Plum tobacco, because I could barely taste it. :blush:
  • Mixed up 8oz of 15mg Nicotine base for mixing convenience
  • Lastly, experimented w/ @barkfunklerbunk 's LMT: Split the remaining leftovers into 2 bottles (about 7ml each), added a bit of Forest Fruit in one and Blueberry Extra in the other... Being the small, light, plastic bottles that they are, I accidentally knocked over the latter (barely even touched it :shock:), so it may taste more like I waved the BB Extra flavoring over the bottle. Yeah, there was no bowl under the bottle to catch anything... :lol:
In all of this, I've totally forgotten to taste the Snickerdoodle and @Fidola13 's Cheesecake I made, which are both well steeped. I've got tanks to wash, so I may have to bite the bullet and build an RDA. ;)

I've been wanting to mix for about 2 weeks now, and just have not had any free time. Maybe today is the day. I've been planning to mix a 30ml of strubarb custard, but with an extra % or 2 and maybe CAP v2 custard instead of CAP v1 custard.
This is the original recipe. I think it needs a bit more custard to balance out strong strawberry flavor.. or less strawberry

Strubarb Custard
Rating: 0.0
Total amount: 10ml (9.99g)
Nicotine strength:: 50mg/ml
PG/VG/H2O: 62/38/0

- Nicotine base: 5ml (5.2g)
- Zero PG portion: 0.01ml (0.01g)
- Zero VG portion: 3.8ml (4.79g)
- H2O portion: 0ml (0g)
- Cookie FA - 2%: 0.2ml (0.21g)
- Joy FA - 0.2%: 0.02ml (0.02g)
- Lime tahity cold pressed FA - 0.15%: 0.02ml (0.02g)
- Marshmallow - 0.75%: 0.08ml (0.08g)
- Rhubarb INW - 0.85%: 0.08ml (0.09g)
- Shisha strawberry INW - 3%: 0.3ml (0.31g)
- Sweet cream FW - 1%: 0.1ml (0.1g)
- Sweet strawberry CAP - 1.5%: 0.15ml (0.16g)
- Vanilla custard V1 - 2.5%: 0.25ml (0.26g)

I steep everything a long time, maybe too long sometimes. I loved the bbm at 4 weeks though.. maybe I should have tried it sooner.

    I am still trying to vape my way through older mixes. I have over a half a 30ml bottle of Irish Whiskey which I think I'm going to put away for future vaping because I don't want to vape my way out of too many of my favs.

    Thanks! Haha, I tend to forget about them until around the 2nd month! :blush: I'll do the shake, burp/breathe, and sniff test thing for the next several days, then life usually gets in the way and I forget.

    I needed to get a boozy one mixed and couldn't decide between yours and Truckin's Bourbon Cream (his says to steep for 7 days). His smelled amazing right off the shake, so I think I'll give yours at least a week or two. It smelled really good, too, but had a heavier bourbon smell. This no-alcohol crap has me craving bourbon for some reason... So, I doubled my odds of success and mixed both. :thumbs:

    I just mixed a 10ml sample of this. If I like it then I'll do more. I figure it probably needs a week or two of steeping.

    I've got seven FA tobacco sft that I need to try. They have about two weeks steep down already. I wonder if I should wait for a month? The Tuscan reserve smelled wonderful in the bottle. I have high hopes. I think I still have about three weeks to go before I can try the nets that papaw sent me.

    Whenever you do try Tuscan I would love to hear your thoughts on it. I still have my eye on a few 'new to me tobaccos' I want to try.

    whew.... that's strong... 15% may be a bit much on my clove ejuice
    I don't know it still seems like it's missing something but almost spot on, as much as I don't want to it may need a tobacco flavor in it and maybe less anise....i know ft had a sampoerna tobacco juice I got once that I think would really make this a sampoerna xtra clone
    Have you tried the DIYFS Dejarm? I have it but haven't tested it yet.

    I really like this RY4 even though I used DFS HHG RY4 v2 instead of v1 in error. There is a definite difference between v1 and v2 — v1 is richer.

    Holy Pistachio RY4 v2
    1% FA Vanilla Bourbon
    0.5% FW Hazelnut
    7% DFS HHG RY4
    3.5% TFA Pistachio
    0.7% FLV Red Burley

    Holy Pistachio V2
    I don't have Red Burley. How do you think this would be without it?

    Does this recipe have Irish Cream in it?

    DFS HHG RY4 has no tobacco presence. It needs to be boosted with FLV Red Burley — plus FLV Kentucky Blend for Cardinal. Be sure to use HHG RY4 v1 for a richer flavor. I will vape this bottle with v2 but when it is gone then back to v1.

    This looks like something I could really enjoy. I don't have the vanilla bourbon but I do have Kentucky bourbon and that aged bourbon cream. I might add a touch of one of the vanillas I have too, wondering if Shisha Vanilla would be a good option.

    I think FW hazelnut is great, I feel it adds some creaminess to a mix even at low percentages.
