Yes, the Fa cookie is less sweet and will add more of a crunchy cookie feel to it. I'm not very good at explaining flavors but I would think that lowering the sugar cookie to 2% and maybe 1-2% Fa cookie would help balance it and make it less sweet. Also, speaking from personal experience, I would only change one thing at a time. I've had times where recipes really get away from me from changing too many things at once.
Agree about changing too many things. In this case, I changed the sugar cookie and only changed the ratio of the two chocolates. So it's probably 1-1/2 things I changed. :)

    I wouldn't mind if the next Jac was 22mm. All my attys are 22mm. I don't have any Jac mods, but I'd like one.

    Tomorrow I finally get to give my fruit loops a whirl. An agonizing 3 weeks or so to try my blueberry cheesecake though, I'm impatient !
    The wait is worth it

    Good morning,random folks. Well this is the day we leave and it’s going to be a busy one. Lot’s of furniture to more.Most everything else has been boxed up and moved.

    I hope you folks have plans that are a bit more fun.
    Have a safe and wonderful trip! Weather looks pretty good :)

    I emailed Jac vapour and they responded already and said that the sandstorm is discontinued and they will be coming out with a black unit next. I think I read that it's 23mm. Is the 23mm what size tank fits on it? I saw that they used to have a 25mm in the sandstorm.
    Left to right: istick 40, og Jac (22), og Jac (25), Solo. Other mods are for size comparison. The thing I like less about the 25 is the lip they added to accommodate a larger atty.

    If you'd ever like to sell the 25, I'd be interested. Most of my tanks are a little big for the 22.

    Not sure if that Sandstorm is a 25 or a 23 (unless I missed it). They made the Sandstorm in both sizes.
    I’m too lazy to go google atty widths... Cerberus fits flush, zenith and Fresia both have a little room left, but not enough to be obviously bothersome

    All of mine are 25mm.

    Useless comment.

    So, in an attempt to maximize the tweaking process, I came up with two different tweaks for the Chocolate Cookie recipe. One effectively reduces the sugar cookie level and the other reduces both sugar cookie and brown sugar (I know the cookie level has to come down because it's too cakey). Why tweak it once, wait two weeks for steeping, then do another tweak based on the first tweak?? I prefer running simultaneous tweaks and skip all the steeping excitement.

    I often do the same, make two or three variations on a recipe at the same time. Yup, saves time :)
    It would be different if you were certain of a particular ingredient and its impact on the overall flavor. But when you have multiple possibilities then it takes multiple tweaks/attempts. The worst part of DIY experimenting is having to wait for steeping.
