Fran, did you ever try the cranberry sprite recipe? It’s just too weak on flavor to me. I might try doubling the percentages.

I just made a simple cranberry fizzy that is good. Was way to low on flavor total but I think if I bump it up to 10% and increase the cranberry or add a different cranberry it’ll be pretty good. The cranberry sprite I made previously was nothing to write home about unless I fiddle with %s quite a bit. But definitely wasn’t getting a cranberry sprite flavor from it.

    That’s the recipe I started with and am going to try bumping up the percentages.

    Oh good then let me know what you end up with. I like higher flavor totals than many here. I’m quite comfortable at 15% or more depending on the flavors involved.

    @Zazie I can’t believe you got that far already on the recipes!! You have waaay more energy than I do!!!

    It’s perfect for me because rn I’m just keeping to simple (3-4 flavors) recipes at the moment and in just a glance I can determine if I want to try it or not.

    Thanks to you and whoever else came up with the great idea!!

    All credit goes to @AngeNZ for thinking of the project. I'm just happy to be doing something positive that assumes a future for vaping in general and ECF in particular.

    Besides, this is exactly the kind of rigid, repetitive task that I find soothing. A sampler of similar projects I've undertaken over the years includes transcribing an entire cookbook for my mother, creating a digital catalog of the music library at the college radio station where I DJ'd for a couple of summers, and helping to convert the card catalog when the library here went digital. Good times.

    Hi, all.
    @FranC I'm trying my first cheesecake with Mascarpone. I added the fruits after 3 weeks, just a half hour ago. It has a lot of depth. I like it a lot. Most likely a copy of one of yours.
    1% Cheesecake (Graham Crust) (TPA)
    2 Graham Cracker (Clear) (TPA)
    0.75 Mascarpone Cream Cheese (SC) (WF)
    4 New York Cheesecake v2 (CAP)
    0.75 Raspberry (Purilum)
    2.75 Strawberry (Red Touch) (FA)
    0.75 Strawberry (TPA)

    I wish I could be good at transcribing or even remembering an address and zip code to transcribe from one page to a delivery label.

    Every since my brain “incident” I have a terrible time with my memory and constantly need to check, adjust, recheck, adjust and so on. It also effected my “cognition” in other words I can get easily confused. It’s incredibly frustrating because prior to this I could just look at a page and see it in my minds eye almost word for word. I also was pretty sharp. But it is what it is and I have to live with it.

    That’s why I don’t often answer questions unless I know FOR SURE I have the right suggestions because Ill often answer with the incorrect information thinking I had understood the question when in fact I didn’t. Then I get corrected and feel super dumb. I figure there’s plenty of people on here that actually WILL have the correct answers needed.

    Anyhow, this is a brilliant idea from @AngeNZ and you for starting it. So thank you both!!

    I forgot to add in this that I actually used v1 and v2 NYCC, half of what the recipe states each, just because I have it and wanted this to be extra rich.
