Random DIY mixing and More

[englishmick]

I saw this in one of the groups I am in. He says this is just his fruit flavors. With my wood making skills this is something I may be able to do.

I made a flavoring stand years ago. 3/4" stock for the base with 1/4" stock glued to the sides, not much woodwork required. Just started out and I had a lot of small sample bottles, so I made a bunch of small holes along the front. Now those holes are just a nuisance. That one looks like it's designed to be carried around so it would need holes. Mine just sits on a shelf.

Holes are easy if you have a drill press. I wouldn't want to tackle that with a regular drill. Have a feeling some of the holes would end up going all the way through.

I got some vape mail today. I received my bcf order and my order from heartland. I got one last liter of nic, a gallon of vg, and bottles to freeze the nic in.

Get more new flavors?

Ah, I like Clint too.

Yes.

 

[FranC]

Yes.

Was pretty sure of that but have you mixed to last ones yet?

Thought to start with DIY myself.

A little tired of buying ready-mixed juice all the time, and that I have almost not managed to find the optimal juice yet, Black Note Virginia and IVG Gold Edition are probably the only two, Nasty Juice Bronze is also decent.

Virginia and Burley Tobacco are probably the closest to me.

I have read a bit about the Stixx brand but that is about as far as I have come in the DIY worlds.

All I remember is they called them magic mushrooms.

I got it. I thought you were referring to culinary mushrooms, not the other. If they were the magic ones, I'm not surprised that's all you remember. LOL.

The one aspect I liked about it was the portability. You are right though, without a drill press it would be difficult to get the correct, uniform depth on each hole.

It is here! May I present the De'longhi Magnifica ESAM3300:

That is beautiful. You'll be a real barista soon.
Does that make ordinary coffee too?

Kroma-Z arrived.
It's very nice. Good flavor, good vapor. (Just using the .8Ω so far.) Not quite as pocketable as the Sceptre, but I knew that. I like the external air control.
I like the fire "bar" versus a button. All in all, a very nice little mod. I'm glad there were several of you who spoke well enough of it to tempt me.

I bet something that fancy makes everything. Expresso, regular coffee, cappuccino, scones, paninis, etc.

Not yet. I’ve been swamped with reviews. I’ll get around to them.

I'd like to thank whoever posted the Flavor Facts sheet (I went back several pages to find it but no luck) That is the most useful resource I've seen

No it makes any espresso drink so I plan to make Americanos which I like better than coffee. But I still have my coffee/tea maker too.

I tried the Kroma-Z (first with the installed 0.8 coil, then the 0.3 coil) I used the same juice to compare flavor (peanut butter banana pudding with vanilla wafers) Anyway, I forgot this juice is 12 mg and it was just too much at 30 watts (the 0.3 ohm coil) I needed something to reduce the nic level and remembered I have this 0 mg premade juice (Pierre's Smores French Toast) so I mixed that in the tank too. It is sooo good! I am looking forward to getting some new flavors and creating recipes like this. Going to make a BCF list while waiting for my stimulus check in the mail.

Now I want to make a caramel butterscotch latte eliquid. YUM! All this talk about coffee makers and expresso! Thanks a lot guys!

I did get my stimulus money. It will help since I have no job yet. Actually, it may take me some time to really feel good. My fatigue is horrible again. I still have diminished taste/smell. It hasn't changed to much. I made a taco salad tonight. No sugar was involved and every bite was like eating powdered sugar. My brain was telling me I was eating beef, sour cream, cheese, dressing and lettuce but my taste was all sugar. Hmm. I might lose some weight now.

You could make the bottom two layers... top layer with holes all the way through, bottom layer no holes. Super easy to drill that way. Maybe thin plywood for the bottom layer.

I'm going to spend a lot of time on ATF (now that I finally understand how to use it... was a bit lost before) Been reading recipes with OOO Pie Crust and lots of berry recipes (inspired by Fran's recent post)
