OK, it's been two weeks and I can share this recipe. I like this one. The yogurt doesn't have much flavor and has a light texture relative to creams, cheesecakes, etc.. A perfect "weight". I like how smooth and mellow it is and how it flattens out the sharpness of the raspberry. Makes for a very nice base. And the VBIC adds to that base. A very pleasant vape that leaves you looking forward to the next puff. It has a low overdose coefficient...it doesn't wear out its welcome quickly. It's one I will feature in my rotation. It took 6 iterations but I think I have it dialed in. But as always, adjust to your tastes.


Raspberry Yogurt

Greek Yogurt (TFA) 12.0%
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (TFA) 0.5%
Raspberry (FW) 0.33%
Raspberry (FA) 0.33%

So what do you folks think of this Corona Virus? Concerned, worried or panic mode?

Well, wife is panicked, I'm concerned. But mostly concerned about how panicked so many others are. Panic is counter-productive, makes it hard to think rationally.

Yes, enhanced personal hygiene, "social distancing" which we normally do anyway. Couple of hermits :)

Although with all the restrictions being put on "retirement" homes, I may not make my annual trek to Phoenix, for my Dad's b'day (98 this time) since his place may not even let me in. Still waiting on info on that. And it would really sock if I thought I took it to him. (No symptoms here, but it's a long drive.)

    Concerned, though not for myself (as a shut-in prone to buying in bulk, I am barely affected). Beyond the potential death count, there are all the ripple effects. It will be interesting to see how it alters the world as we know it.

    My wife is panicked, I am not. She's been ordering tp and paper towels online from Sam's when available so we are good there. Getting food from Walmart pick-up today - oh crap they just canceled our order! WTH? I guess the stuff is real at the store!

    I like the Erl very much. Wish I'd been vaping when it came out so I could have snagged a real one or two.

    I had a feeling you'd respond as you did, especially after I did a bit of a search here and came across a post of yours from 2018 asking the same question I asked you. Oh well, I'll keep scouring. I did find some clones, but I have to confess that ten bucks when all I really want is the tank bugs me a bit. I'll probably get a couple, though, since, as you said, the spare parts might come in handy someday. I'll also try to compose an extremely charming email to Von Erl to see if I can cajole a tank or two from them. Hell, maybe they've got a dusty Erl sitting in the back of a cupboard somewhere that I could buy.

    Did you ever try repurposing a 20ml syringe as someone suggested? The part number indicated seems to be unique to the UK, and I have no idea if the US equivalent is actually the same, so that gives me pause. And of course the bigger obstacle is my lack of tools and dexterity. I can easily see myself ruining countless syringes as I tried to cut one down to the proper size.

    Thanks for your thorough reply, @barkfunklerbunk! How goes the train ride? My longest was a mere seventeen hours; I can't imagine one twice as long.

    I hope no one is snuffling near you.
    It's been fairly pleasant, sleeping in coach is very difficult if you're tall. I'm glad to be off the Texas Eagle. I was on that damn thing for 35 hours. Was supposed to be like 30, but delays and all that. I'm at the Chicago Union Station and the Grand Hall is truly Magnificent with a capital M. 3 more hours on a train and then 50 minutes on a bus and then hotel.. then its 12 hour bus ride tomorrow.. I was going to be able to get a ride by a coworker (3 hour trip) but that fell through.. oh well. I'm anxious to get to my hotel tonight.

    I did not try the syringe thing, and I forgot about it. I'm sure if you found the right inner and outer diameter it would work. Cutting poly/acrylic is fairly easy. Worst thing that could happen is destroying a cheap syringe.

    My ammit rdas fit and my digiflavor siren v1 fits. It came with an nrg se tank that I have coils that will fit. Zenith and Zeus don’t fit.
    Well, you're all set to use it then even if they all don't fit.

    I’m very concerned for my parents, and especially my Mom. She has smoked most of her 80 year old life and she can barely talk without coughing. I suspect COPD or emphysema but never diagnosed. I worry this stuff will kill her if she gets it. I’m stocked in case we have to quarantine but not too much. We could make it for at least a month. I’m not worried about us although if anything happened to me my parents and son would suffer. I stocked my parents as well. They did go to the restaurant today for my son’s party but Mom is worried. The next family function/party isn’t until June so now she can just hang out at home. My brothers are not concerned in the least but they are selfish anyway and if they thought about Mom they’d at least be a little worried.

    Surprise find for me, I found a bottle of Holy Grail RY4 V2 I had mixed and forgot about, mixed at 10% and has had a 6-7 month steep, not had RY4 for years, but even as a single flavor mix, I am really enjoying this, even better was I got it as a freebie, but their freebie paid off for them, as be getting more for sure.

    That's what I call a "win/win" situation... good for everyone!
