Random DIY mixing and More

[Koolkiz]

I'm trying the Wonder flavor coconut custard I mixed solo. I mixed it low % I think at 2% and this is horrible. Right now it taste like tanning lotion. A heavily chemical taste and a vague coconut flavor. I'll try it in a month but I doubt anything will change. I should have known it was a dud when I ordered 10mL and was sent a 30mL bottle. (from gremlin before they changed names).

I take it you have no prescription yet for the meds you need?

I have a phone session with my doc on Thursday. So no. But, I will. Pretty VERY soon here gonna bathe, put on the hip happening tense unit on my back, look into my insurance more (I need a PCP Very Badly also) then come here to relax until Yoga time. Getting late. I mean, that is why waking up at 10 is great and awful. SIgh. Not Tomorrow I really gotta do some stuff.

Sounds pretty bad to me.

I hope so. Cutting it rather close, aren't you?

It is. I dumped out the sample and can still taste it. I doubt I'll revisit it again.

I have finished and named 4 recipes. I have 1 left to finish and 1 that needs a major overhaul so It's going to wait til next time.....maybe.

Morning all,

@Skeebo, sorry to hear about last night - that is tragic.

I am still vaping the Banana Cream Pie I made from another's recipe. Maybe will try the Cactus - Peach one later.

My wife washed the dog and I got the shelf in our closet reinforced with two new support brackets. Just need to clean up now. I’m going to go through my clothes and see if there’s anything I can get rid of instead of just hanging them up.

I ended up finishing all 6 of the recipes I wrote. I have 3 very iffy ones but experimenting can be the fun part. I have a melon recipe, a cucumber, and an orange one. I have never been successful with any of those so this is another try. I don't give up easily. The other 3 I'm pretty sure I'll like. I also have some remixes to do.

Now I'm wondering why I have so much to mix

 

[DLKnives]

I have to get and try cucumber, sounds great.

I use that flavor at 1.5% in a mix with 2 pineapples, coconut, strawberry trinity, 2 bananas, and blood orange flavors. Tropicale V3 on ELR, one of the best liquids I've come up with (if I may toot my own horn lol). I think the coconut custard lends a nice creaminess to it. By itself I found Coconut Custard to be bland with not enough coconut or custard, for me. Tropicale has 17.5% total flavoring in the mix, which is high for me... but I love that one, make it repeatedly. I made 500mls of it back in Feb and it got really good after a month and even better as time went on, so good now. I'm vaping it at the moment.

@hittman I'm glad you kept bringing that pudding base to my attention. Good flavor.

Have you tried the coconut custard as a single flavor test? I wish it was bland so I could mask the taste. I am slightly .... with flavorings. I suppose no harm for me to wait a month to try again.

I never did experiment more with the pudding base. I used it to mix with pomegranate but that’s it. I got the rest of my flavors put away yesterday that were sitting in boxes from the last two orders. I need to update my master list. I haven’t updated it since February and have added a lot of flavors since then.

I need to decide what to mix tonight. I mix on weekends, generally every couple weeks. I need to make a big bottle of Skittles for someone else, come up with something using Sour Blue Raspberry WF as a main flavor or solo (for someone else else), tobacco for the wife, and I think a strawberry cheesecake for me. Hm cheesecake base actually, going to do a 500ml of that, and then split it up over time and add whatever fruit Sounds good at the time.

Is the pudding base in Zazzie's blog? Because I would be interested in it. I think I might have more luck with puddings than custards.

I did sft it quite a while ago, probably at 5%, I don't really keep notes. I did not like it by itself either. I think some of the cruddy flavor might fade but it was not great at any point. I was not going to buy more, but I keep it around for that Tropicale mix.

I have a simple pudding recipe in Zazies Blog.
