Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

Morning, mixers, and good luck on the week!

Temps kept above freezing overnight. Barely. Did get all the hoses and such winterized, yeah, it's that time.

Flavor "burn-out" is why I have a dozen mods going. Yes, I do have about half of those with "regulars", the others rotate with the new and different. So never a dull moment, just grab a different mod.



Not Amazon, but I like these for the 30 ml size.

$1.85 Empty Square Dropper Bottle for E-liquid (5-Pack / 30ml) 5-pack - PE at FastTech - Free Shipping

Looks like we're on for the town run. Trying to guess what the next hoardiing item will be...

I read that pizza could be the next shortage but there’s no sign of that here.

Sorry I can’t help on the bottles. I use all glass now that I finally have enough. I might use a small plastic for an sft though. It’s just my preference.

My plan was to mix more nic base (nic,pg,vg). I had 3 empty 120ml bottles. I got that done already.

Look at you being all industrious and getting your mixing done early. More than likely I won't be able to do any mixing until this evening. Fed-ex normally comes early evening for me.

Morning. Well besides work stuff, I am getting my BCF order today. I have spent a good amount of time trying to find some decent 120ml and 30ml plastic bottles on Amazon as well. I can't really tell which ones are good. If anyone has any recommendations, I would appreciate it.

How about you @FranC? What do you have going on today?

In the past I had been buying my 10ml bottles from dropperbottles but this last time I got 100 from heartland and I like them much better. They just seem like better quality. I haven't tried their larger ones. I did get some 15ml glass ones also that are good. To me, Amazon is a crap shoot as to whether the bottles will be good or not. I bought a 100 pack from there once and they were horrible. It was almost impossible to get the dropper tips on them since the molding on the bottles was so bad. I ended up throwing them away.

If so, that would bring the country to it's knees!

Good morning random folks Have you any plans today?

I'm hoping the roads aren't too bad on the way home. I got notification that I have a review item coming today via DHL and hopefully my new phone case will come today.

I have a 4th 120ml bottle of nic mix in use. When it’s empty I may turn it into a Cheesecake Base bottle. That would insure I always have well steeped Cheesecake Base. I do love my cheesecakes.

Are most of your favorite mixes cheesecake based ones?

I know Amazon is often a crapshoot, especially when there are so many different options for bottles on there. I plan on grabbing some Heartland ones, but I won't be ordering any more nic until later next month. The Amazon ones are more to hold me over until then. I'm mostly interested in getting some decent 120ml for steeping bases.

Amazon does have some good bottles sold in smaller quantity and more likely a bit more in price. I wouldn’t want to recommend anything. It’s been ages since I bought plastic.

I’d really recommend glass for anything long term.

Maybe the better side of 50/50. I always have one pv with a cheesecake.

Got a couple of questions concerning "Koolada", hopefully a few of you are using it . . .

1) Does it ever get too old?

2) Or "lose" it potency over time, even if you make sure the bottles are closed tightly ?

I'm not getting the same TH and am wondering if it is the "Koolada" or if it's "Me".

I use glass for my nic, but I want some decent squeeze bottles for base and my actual mixes.

Maybe you got accustomed to it? Kind of like when I get burned out on a flavor.

Could you get a new bottle? That would answer the question.

I saw these that look decent in quality. Not sure if they would be a pain to fill up attys with the twist top though. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F3F9DW...colid=11BGNML4TIPC1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1

I also noticed these for larger bottles. The reviews are solid and would be a good size for bases and VG/PG

I do love my cheesecakes but I use several other base flavors for my mixes. INW Biscuit is a fav along with Cap cereal 27, FA Cookie, WF Croissant, WF Cannoli Shell etc. etc.

I can’t comment on the twist tops but the bigger ones look fine.

I like the 240ml in these for mixing my nic base. They are soft and easy to squeeze and I like the twist to open caps.
