Got a winner. I was going to tweak it one more time but I don't think I have to. If I did, I would tilt toward a little more Ligero and a little less of everything else. This is exactly how the percentages calculated out after mixing steeped Ligero with my Honeydew-Cantaloupe recipe. Ligero lends itself well for fruits IMO. The Ligero gives me the tobacco I want and the HC takes the dryness off the Ligero and imparts a bit of melon delight that isn't overwhelming (HD can be strong stuff). So if any of you recent Stixx Mixx purchasers bought some Honduran Ligero, give it shot. I'd give it a minimum 2 week steep.

HONDURAN MELON

Honduran Ligero (Stixx Mixx) 8%
Honeydew (TFA) 2.2%
Cantaloupe (FA) 0.8%
Sweetener (TFA) 0.2%

So what are all you random folks doing this evening.Thinking I should work on a recipe or too but I’m too busy being lazy.
I've gone three days without sampling the Strawberry Biscuit. Any and all pats on the back are welcome. :w00t:

    I have a few sideshows I’m working on but the chocolate gets top priority. :)

    What I should do tomorrow is mix myself some Strawberry Biscuit because I’m out.
    My tweaked version is a month old now so I’m gonna break it out tomorrow. I made 20 mls.

    I have a caramel custard I’m going to try over the weekend. It’s Pingy’s ADV. He sort of replicated it from his ADV he got from a vendor. I bet he’s loving the cost savings. I never had custard without cheesecake so I want to see how it works out. It might be a bit on the sweet side but I can always tweak it if it has potential. We’ll see.

    I can’t taste caramel in a vape just the sweetness from it. That sounds very sweet to me.
    It might be Fran. Pingy admits to having a sweet tooth. I think I like sweeter stuff than you but not by a whole lot. Too sweet and it gets old quick for me.

    Thanks! I’ll definitely give it a try as soon as my nets are steeped.

    What dumb luck that they sent the Honduran as a free sample.

    I’m vaping on the boost and loving it so far. I’d call it an AIO instead of a pod device. I’m running the .6 coil at 15 watts to break it in and may turn it up some later.

    Trying out v1,000,000 of the Figgy Cheesecake. I dropped the orange (and will again next version) and subbed Mixed Nuts for Butter Pecan. Until I drop the orange I can’t tell what’s going on with the nuts
