Looks like reinventing maths when I look at totals. There are definitely mistakes in this recipe, regardless of what the 3 values represent

    Oh the black licorice is a success, simple recipe, but got what I wanted, has that tang black licorice should have, but it is smooth and creamy, which is what I was aiming for, it's great fresh, wonder if will get even better as it steeps, I know most don't like black licorice, but think it is good enough to share anyway :)

    Me too, love to eat and vape it, I'm a Brit, and black licorice is more common and enjoyed there than the states, most people I meet here, go yuk when bring up black licorice.

    So because I’m irritated with my fiddly but flavor banging RTA’s I’ve started trying out rda’s on squonks. Flavor is not the same. Do I have to mix differently even tho the ohms are roughly the same?
    I'd say, from my limited experience- it depends on the tank you use. My berserker mini RDA- I'm not too keen on. Flavor with the factory drip tip- meh. I used different drip tips with it and some improved the flavor. On the other hand, my Berserker mini RTA is a great flavor tank if you like restricted MTL. But then again, got the Wismec tobinho RDA recommended by someone here and the flavor on that RDA just beats everything else I used so far (ignoring all flaws of that tank I've experienced so far, just concentrating on flavor).

    Hearing Black Licorice tends to make me sad. My bf loved it and he died in a motorcycle accident last year about 5 months after I lost hubs. I used to get BF a big bag of Black Licorice jelly beans every year for Christmas. I don't care for it myself.

    Not a brit but I live in UK man (Scotland). I wasn't going to mention it but my inspiration came from a juice called Black Tobacco by company elite- my personal favourite tobacco juice. Maybe you came across it. Been trying to recreate it for a while now

    Really sorry for your double loss...

    What RDA's have you tried? From all my extensive reading and brief experience with Tobinho, airflow+ design seem to be the two things that play crucial role with regards to flavor you receive. You want bottom airflow, small chamber, and low profile. Oh yeah and drip tip is also very important from my experience, and that applies to every tank I own

    Triple. The loss of my 17 year old cat. I sure was hoping 2020 would be a better year but that sure ain't happened with the damn virus.
    The cat- 17 years for a cat is a great achievement! You should be proud rather than sad. 17 years means you took a great care of it. I guess attitude when buying animals helps, every time i bought an animal, since my young age, I always considered how long will it live. My favorite fish died recently, had that male for 6.5 years. Life expectancy for these species is 2-5 years. I was proud when it died, I knew I gave him the best possible conditions I possibly could

    Thank you for that. I did give him a good life. He was a happy cat :)

    Our cat (that lived over 15 years) lived a good life (including 10 years in the mountains chasing critters and getting "treed" by coyotes) I miss him so much but it's all good.

    So I finally tried mixing with my scale... so freaking easy! Three small SFTs in about 10 minutes (I had the base pre-mixed) It's a nice scale (from Liquid Barn) maybe a bit overpriced but came with five 60 ml bottles too. Nice quality, uses 4 AA batteries and also comes with a power adapter and a plastic bowel:thumb: Will try my SFTs later tonight. My next mixing project is my tobacco mix... 5 flavors and even though I have done them all individually, I'm not sure what % to use (I'm thinking half and then dilute the final mix as needed) I pre-mix my base so easier to dilute then add more flavors.
    If anyone is interested it's
    (FA) Soho
    (HS) USA mix
    (PUR) Sweet tobacco
    (PUR) Creamy caramel
    (VT) Vanilla cream
    The last two are because I need a good RY4 but don't have one

    I used mine for the first time a few days ago. Mixed a couple of 10ml bottles of Water-Malone and blue razz. I agree that it was super easy and quick. Very nice scale. Excited to start mixing more when my BCF order gets to me.
    What did you do for blue razz?
