Random DIY mixing and More

[newyork13]

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%

Just got my Stixx Mixx flavors. This one sounds good and I'll make it.
Generally, how long do you steep Stixx Mixx?

I had recipes I used to mix by counting drops.

I suspect anything in the ballpark will not change the flavor much. I changed Fran's Strawberry Biscuit recipe quite a bit in terms of ratios of ingredients (Strawberry flavor versus non-Strawberry flavors) but it still contained the exact same ingredients. It moved the flavor but not by near as much as I thought it would.

I don't know 13. I haven't worked with them long enough to know that quite yet. My experience with most NETs tells me two weeks is good. One month is better. There are exceptions and everyone is different (I had one NET, Vita Bella, that took at least three months before I could vape it...six months was even better). But as a rule I think if you sit them for two weeks or more it will be fine.

And now I'm out of that juice. I was really enjoying it. Mixed some more so now I wait.

That sounds like fun. I didn't know there was a real polar express train.



If you have a scale, next time you mix it then just measure how much of each flavor you use and write it down. I've done that before when I had recipes I used to mix by counting drops.

Correction. We're going to RI. There are Polar Express Trains all around the country.

I'm still enjoying it and I don't feel it needs to be fruity so here it is

Raisin Nut Cookie
FLV Raisin Rum 1%
Fa Cookie 1%
Cap Hazennut 1.5%
INW Biscuit 1%
Fa Fresh Cream 1%

 

[FranC]

Well,my last mix is Butter Biscuit and I'm pretty sure it either needs fruit or its too sweet or both. Gonna get some in a tank and find out.

 

[FranC]

Virginia Spice ,Stoved Virginia, 84 Turkish and Louisiana Red.

@Bronze Any of those work or are you gonna make me get Stixx

I don't have one, yet. I have a kitchen scale, but it doesn't measure small enough amounts.

You should get one. Makes mixing so much quicker and easier.

I'll have to give that one a try. The first recipe I tried with raisin rum wasn't a big hit. It would be nice to find a use for it.

Thank you, that’s on my mix list for this evening. Looks really yummy

 

[FranC]

My last mix is both too sweet and in need of fruit. The initial taste is good so it's worth applying fix

After the holidays. Any recommedations on Amazon? I'll add it to my wishlist.

This is the one I have and love. Someone provided me with the weight of a new quarter and that's what I used to check accuracy.

Well,I can't seem to get in mixing mode today so my Biscuit will have to wait. Plenty of yummy cheesecake to fill in. Maybe I can apply the fixes to a couple mixes anyway.

 

[Terri McVeety]

I’m gonna be mostly MIA tomorrow. We’re headed out early for RI. Both daughter, 2gd’s, 5 kiddos and me. Gonna take a ride on the Polar Express train. Not sure how I got talked into it.

Sounds like fun!

 

[FranC]

Well,I applied the fix to my Butter Biscuit.Hopefully it works without affecting the good base taste.

I also had an already mixed 30ml of Mixed Berry Cheesecake. Upon looking at the recipe I realized it didn't have much for mixed berries so I fixed that. I used a very different fruit .WF Boysenberry/Raspberry. Tasty I hope

 

[FranC]

Sounds like fun!

Lots of kiddos I'm sure.

 

[FranC]

Well dang, I did it, I did it 30ml of Strawberry Biscuit Mixed!!. I really hate mixing 7 flavors but it's so good.
