Random DIY mixing and More

[DavidOck]

Thanks Fran.
It's quite strange. I'm a dab hand in the kitchen but I absolutely suck at mixing good juice. 9 disasters to 1 vape-worthy is my ratio.

Keep it simple to start, just 3 or maybe 4 flavors. Flavors that you like And yep, @Zazie 's blog is a great place to start.

And mix small batches, say 10 ml, so if it's not something you want to vape, no great loss.

Annnndddd... keep notes.

You want in? We can do this!

Problem is I don’t have a beard.

Check out Zazie’s blog. Lots of good recipes in there. I’ve been mixing for years and when I first started I sucked too. Takes time and well worth it.

It's interesting you mention that. I was just browsing Zazie's blog for the first time this morning. Really useful. I've bookmarked a couple of recipes already and like she says in the intro notes it's worth checking follow up posts for tweaks and suggestions.
After your advice here a while back and having pre-mixed base on hand, experimenting with new recipes is so much easier for me.
First one I'm gonna try is SMT's Creamy Butterscotch Cookie

Indeed, pre-mixed base is a huge time saver!

I wish I could, but that experience made me embrace my white beard. The hair on my head is naturally all brown. My beard looked nice after the dye job, but my face started melting literally 5 minutes later... It leaked clear fluid for months, every part of my body itched, and I couldn't sleep at all. Lost about 30lbs by taking beard dye lol.

I had a feeling this might be your answer.

We can just put it on people's faces and watch them suffer.. It will be fun and financially rewarding.

Very huge.

Recipes for Dummies is a good starter thread, too, @Pigs.

That’s funny! I had that kind last night. My wife always keeps ice cream in the freezer but I don’t crave it very often.

Cookie dough is the only ice cream I am ever tempted to buy. It's so good.

Just tell the clients, "feel the burn!" and "no pain no gain!"

I looked through my recipes and found Nevans grapefruit lemonade which I saved but don’t think I mixed. I did a quick 15ml mix and loaded a tank on the Sensis. It’s decent flavor at 25 watts and 60Hz. Maybe it just doesn’t do as well with bakery recipes for some reason.

Dinner is done, CVS trip done, I’m on the couch and I’m not moving. Well I CAN’T move but that’s beside the point.

I think most diets are painful to me. We love food around here.

I think diets are painful to most people. Maybe the pain is supposed to distract you from the hunger?

@hittman look, we have just found our chief of marketing.

I’m been vaping my yogurt mixes in the Sensis. They all have fruit. I think the bottle I just finished is my last. If so I’ll have to break out my new
Huckleberry yogurt. They don’t need much steeping which is good.

I'll do it!

I pick the Sceptre up quite a bit. It has a nice smooth draw for a pod. I made it my coffee pod. I’ve been afraid of burning out on coffee again for good. Soooooo I switched my coffee to my Nauti prime. It vapes well and I don’t pick it up quite as often. Now what to put in the Sceptre. I don’t want to get into using a bunch of coils so I’m thinking cheesecakes. Or maybe one of the mixes I do in 30ml like my Strawberry Biscuit.

I just rinsed my .25 coil with hot water when I cleaned out the pod yesterday and let it dry a day. I’m using it with the lemonade and it’s still good.

While typing this, I hit the pod and knocked it on the concrete and it didn’t break. Either lucky or it’s fairly durable.

So far only Nevans' LMP has been the only recipe I like from him. Even his ice cream trilogy was so so to me. I haven't tried a lot... There is a lady called the juicefairy on ELR who's recipes have been good. I love her peanut butter macaroon recipe.

Just received my small, 8 flavor, order from BCF.
