I was worried my Tom Cruise comment might start problems... it's the main reason I didn't mention Beyonce and Mariah Carey avatars are on ignore as well.
Tom Cruise, B and Mariah, agreed. :lol: Never was a TC fan, ugh. I haven't seen any of those used here, yet. :D

So I went for it (ouch... my wallet hurts) Got a really good (slightly overpriced) scale from LB but it also comes with a power supply. Ordered several one-shots and flavors to make the $50 free shipping (Wayne, that Water Malone had better be good) LB White chocolate peppermint is supposed to be "heavenly" (we shall see) Also got Strawberry Quick and some sweetener (first time... don't like really sweet juices but need just a bit for a specific recipe) I could have just got a cheap scale from Amazon and a bunch of flavors from BCF but in the end I think I'm going to love that good scale (very similar to the ones several of you recommended)

    Good afternoon Folks !!! :wub:

    I love DIY flubs that turn out really good. Working a recipe with MB Glamour Chocolate. Dripped some today and am pleased. The chocolate tasted 'different' from my last taste test. Checked my notes and last time I bumped up the chocolate I goofed and added WF Chocolate Chunks instead of MB's GC. Those two make an impressive chocolate flavor together.

    It's much more balanced now. My recipe has those chocolates, vanilla, cream and dairy. Tastes like chocolate milk. It needs more steeping, and tweaks, but I am happy thus far. Please don't ask if it's whole, 2% or skim milk cause IDK. :lol: :lol:
    Once I get it right, I'll pop it up.
    I may mix those two together next time I have a chocolate mix idea.

    The White Chocolate peppermint is wicked sweet.

    Just dripped a little of my chocolate mixed with some of a graham cracker/biscuit recipe I'm working on. They're very nice and tasty together. Something else to make.

    Gives the chocolate a base. Excellent.

    I'm using FW graham cracker in that one. It's a smooth gc. Have TPA graham crkr clear and INW biscuit in another being worked on. I'll end up trying both graham crackers together to satisfy my curiosity.

    I have been playing with those 2 chocolates also, but I had not tried adding vanilla cream and dairy. I was trying for a Milk chocolate, but never got there. :|

    Going to wait for the scale to do any mixing (that's good because I have all these little leftovers from small batch SFTs I need to get rid of)
    Since I mix my unflavored base(s) by volume, I assume I should just put an empty bottle on the scale, Tare (zero) it and add a flavor, tare again, and so on... is there a better way? I will top it off with the base.
