I've had flavors that were weak or just semi-bland (and even strawberry that that didn't come through well but at least I could taste something) Something must be wrong with this (FA) Pom... nothing but a faint hint of floral... it's not even sweet (at all)???
Is it possible I got a "fluke" bottle? Has anyone ever got a flavor that had NO flavor at any %?
Good thing this was part of a DIY "kit" deal so it was basically almost free or I would demand a refund.
FA does have a floral note but its not really weak. It should be like a pom syrup so it could be you got a bad bottle or it also could be your just sensitive to some of the chemicals used in that flavor. Kind of like people that are strawberry blind. Next time try INW pitaya (pom).

    Good morning random folks. Have you any plans today? I was going to say that I had plans to mix my Vodka mix but that’s already done. I wasen’t going to do any new mixes right now but I had to do that one.

    Have you ordered yet? Been busy a few days... playing catch-up.
    yeah...and of course always forget something lol

    So I had this awesome recipe (it's a dessert... creamy pie with caramel, chocolate, pecans, ect) but also had bacon (the real life recipe) Everyone gasped and said the bacon vape flavor was yucky so i gave up... should I give it a try anyway?
    try it, you may be surprised
    Not a clue. I suggested it to @Shadav when she put out a general plea for suggestions about what to do with various odd untried flavors in her vape pantry. At the time, I had yet to mix a drop; I just tossed out a couple of ideas inspired by food.
    yeah the pb&j banana bacon sandwich sounded weird but it actually tasted pretty good...

    I tried a bacon ice cream once, it was weird...ok... (not a diy, it was sold somewhere, a friend sent me half of it because they knew I try weird vapes lol)

    Good Morning Random Mixers!

    Up at 4am for some reason, think it's these pills they gave me. Have needle topped bottles coming today - that is the only problem I've had is refilling the Aegis Pod. Juice goes all over and I can't get it full. But when I do get it almost full it lasts more than a day so that's a plus. I think the new bottles will solve that problem.

    I also have a frame coming for a John Wayne movie poster I bought on ebay - I bought 3 of them to find the frames cost way more than the poster! So one at a time.

    Also have a second Aegis Pod coming today. Kinda ordered it by accident but hey I'll keep it.:blink::mail::glare:

    Yes. I am not a reviewer but I love this thing. I needed something smaller than my Aegis X for travel in the car/truck and this is perfect. Like I said a full pod lasts more than a day and I'm always hitting it. The charge doesn't last me a whole day but it charges fast. It's small but not too small - I have huge 3XL hands and this pod is perfect for me to use. I guess I am a GV fanboy now. :banana:

    Morning, mixers.

    Another high temp record yesterday... but they claim we'll be 20 degrees lower today, so a nice 70 is on call. Maybe rain later today, more as the week goes on.

    Meanwhile,

    I finished the 10ml bottle of blueberry lemon cake mix that I made for the contest. Should have let it steep but I was enjoying it.

    I'm sure it is going to be good. But now I have to do a bunch of work. I should try each of the 4 ingredients separately. Then decide if I want all of them in the mix and try different percentages. I normally don't do all that. I wing a recipe, then maybe adjust it a bit at random. Maybe I will do it this time since I'm using ingredients I'm not familiar with and I have plenty of time on my hands.

    The contest got me to dig out the stuff I had never tried, and maybe produced a good recipe. That makes it a winner for me. If I get it to where I really like it I'll post it here.

    Today I have to remove a built in microwave and replace it with a range hood. It died after 2 years. The company I worked for closed its warehouse so me and the other guys got to help ourselves before everything went in the dumpster. I got a power washer, snow blower, the microwave, plus a bathroom extractor fan and a lifetime supply of faucets and plumbing and electrical parts. The MW was new in the box, but it sat in the warehouse for a few years then sat in my garage for several years before I installed it. I used to install those things single handed but I'm getting old and decrepit now. Those suckers are quite heavy and I can't call someone to help me like I normally would. So if I disappear for a while you know I dropped it on my foot or put my back out.

    Hoping for no personal damage caused by the MW.

    Great news on the mixing though. So glad the contest got you energized :thumbs:
