Random DIY mixing and More

[hittman]

OK.. I concede. But, how do you all suggest doing 15 SFTs? That was the original question... (not being a smarty... actually need to do this myself... someone gave me a bunch of flavor samples)

When I had a bunch to do like that, I set up four or five rdas with simple round wire coils and tried to do some each day instead of trying to do them all at once. A quick rinse and wick replacement and they are ready to go again. One mistake I made was mixing 10ml sft. I never made it through all ten ml so started mixing 5ml. I wasted a lot of liquid doing sft at first.

This orange mix has surprised me by being pretty good. I may have a new recipe for tomorrow.

Which orange flavors did you use? The orange tart recipe I like uses FA blood orange and tfa orange cream.

I’ll post the recipe in a bit.

OK, here is my recipe. I called it Orange Surprise which is so apt because it's very much a surprise to me that I like it. One for you @Zazie

Orange Surprise
FW Blood Orange 3%
INW Custard 2%
WF Crispy Wafer 1%
INW Shisha Orange 1%
INW Lemon Cake 2%

That sounds good. I'll have to check to make sure I have both the orange flavors.

I checked and I do have both of those.

Does it need much of a steep?

Good morning random folks Have you any plans today?

Good morning. I have to take my pet tyrannosaurus rex in for his first vet visit today, he's 8 weeks old now and growing like a weed.

He's such a smart little guy. I have been training him on commands and it's amazing how fast German Shepherds pick up on it.

Hope everyone has a good day.

I don’t think so. I gave this 2 weeks.

I don't remember, have you and "Wifey" given that "cutie" a name yet?

Buster! His AKC papers list him as Buster Rage Tyson.... Wife gave him his first name... I gave him the rest of his name. I couldn't think of anything but then I remembered another famous Buster; Buster Douglas who defeated the unstoppable Mike Tyson so... I thought Buster Rage Tyson was cute.

I don't do sft....only time that I do is when I'm feeling bored with everything or lazy....
while sft may be a good idea, it doesn't really help much because they will taste different with different flavors

as I've said before, what sounded good in my head didn't turn out so great, some flavors just don't go well with others...
so I mean ok you did a sft and it was nice, you used it in your mix and now it's not so nice....the sft was more of a waste of time/wick....the only thing that an sft is going to do is tell you if the flavoring has an alcohol or perfume taste and will need to steep with the cap off....which you would find out after mixing as well

typically a flavor is going to mostly taste like what it's supposed to (though everyone tastes things differently), I try to read any user reviews on them before I purchase just to make sure that it doesn't have some funky taste or something

me I just dive right in and make a mix and then go from there
also since I use rdas I just vape my wick dry before trying a new flavor, instead of changing the wick...if need be then yes i'll rewick but usually just dry vaping and then doing that a few times with the new flavor will be just fine...

I agree pretty much with your thoughts on sfts.

same here. Tried it and found it a waste of time. I do invent too many recipes anyway. MOstly just copy others

 

[Skeebo]

The only time I do sfts is when I read reviews that state, "This is such an awesome standalone flavor".

 

[Zazie]

I don't sft much. Don't create much, either.
