Random DIY mixing and More

Thank you . So, maybe more like a glass of juice than a slice with rind? I have VT Jam It coming. It’s supposed to make a fruit into a marmalade. I may set Pomelo aside til it arrives.

Let me know how you come out with the Jam it. I bought it a while ago but only tried it in one recipe but don't remember how it came out.

That doesn’t bode well! I need to investigate it a bit first.

I dont get any peel notes at all. More like just the fruit itself and this will sound odd but its sweet and sour at the same time.
I hope the jam works for you, it doesnt for me. More like marshmallow than anything. FA jammy wizard works better for me

I need to add some NETs. Something like pop’s if that’s even possible. The cherry and butterscotch were my favorites

I'm very sure @PapawBrett would be more than happy to send you more if you ask.

I'm not sure if it was the apricot or the acai I wanted to try. Maybe a mix of both would do.

I’d like to figure out how to be a little self sufficient when it comes to tobacco flavors. I just don’t know where to start in looking at them. I don’t need to be ordering a pile of different ones. I’m up to my eyeballs in bottles as it is.
Amazon just delivered my bottles, so I can get mixing. I have a pile of new recipes I want to test. But, need to mix a few regulars too. Just trying to psych myself up to get moving

It's a process to make NETs that I don't want to even attempt. If you want to buy some affordable you can look on the Stixx site but I think you should stick with Brett for your dessert NETs.

I liked the same two that you did. If you order from stixx then you might try the butter rum cavendish. I still haven't tried all the ones I bought but will let you know if I come across another one I like solo.

Quick question... DFS Holy Vanilla (what is DFS) and is it good?

One of my fav vanillas. There holy vanilla and holy holy grail RY4 were both great and now they have been reformulated. Still really good but not exactly the same

Pop's NETs lean toward flavored NETs because that's how most people like them (though there are plenty who still prefer just the tobacco or both). Stixx also has flavored NETs. The flavoring most likely came from being cased (the flavors were infused in the tobacco prior to extraction). This is how Pop's NETs are flavored as well. The process of making these NETs are really not that difficult but it does take a couple months and some relatively inexpensive equipment. This would be the best way to be truly self-sufficient. It may also be how I end up getting my NETs because of this advantage. For now, however, I am buying my NETs from Stixx because I want to dedicate my DIY time to making recipes, not NETs. At least for the time being.

Now, you can get the flavored NETs and vape as is or you can get the unflavored NETs and just taste whatever flavor the tobacco imparts. Or, as I'm doing (and others), you can get an unflavored NET and flavor it yourself with your flavors.

Thank you. If I could find one I could add flavors to with it being a background? flavor, I’d be happy. I’ll start a wishlist there so I don’t forget which ones y’all recommend

Got 3 new recipes mixed to test next month. Next week I can tackle the ADVs I need. Himself is getting off early today .Hopefully he’ll be home by 5:30, but it messed with my mixing plans!

Use Honduran Ligero for fruit flavors...especially berries.

Stixx's wishlist feature doesn't work...or at least I've never figured out how to make it work.

Havana Primed (H Primed) would work for bakery flavors.

I'm currently working with Dark Fire but not far enough along to opine. But I think it will work with the more subtle/dark fruit like apricot or banana in small amounts (I'm trying to have the tobacco take center stage). Something like raisin or fig might work here too. Again, small amounts.

I’ll make on on notes in my phone then. Actually better, since I can put some info with each one. I really appreciate y’all helping. I was lost at where to start, and I feel under the gun to get it ordered. I have those 4 entered

Just 4 more days to see how I like the Dark Fire
