    I use a Badger mixer for 30 seconds in a 60ml & allow 3 - 4+ weeks. It may be ready sooner, but that seems to be where she likes it... :cool:
    Have you come up with your new round of mixes yet? Wondering if ya got anything interesting this
    month.

    Not finalized yet, I got sidetracked... :D The better half decided the grass needed mowing & the hedges needed trimming. I tried to tell her that I was an old man & needed my rest, but to no avail... :lol: In the next couple of days... :cool:

    I have a different base for a cheesecake I want to try. Goes like this
    INW Biscuit .75%
    TFA Cheesecake/Graham 1%
    TFA Graham Clear 1.5%
    Cap NY Cheesecake 4%

    I'll try it if I ever finish it. Ideas?
    What maters is if you like it but IMHO it looks like a lot of “crust” though if you like it that way, why not. Personally I’d drop biscuit to .5% and bump NY CC up 1-2% but thats for my taste.

    I love cheesecake vapes but had to take a break from them for a bit as RF cream cheese scared me away from them for a few weeks after putting it in a cc mix. It’s the most rancid putrid flavor! I purchased 30ml of it too:facepalm:
    Missed that one. Not big on RF flavors except for ABC.

    Question for another nutty person. What's a better Pistachio,FA or TFA?
    I haven’t tried my 1 shots from Chef’s yet but I recently tried Gremlin’s Dryad and oh my is it delicious all by itself as a S&V... Well, I gave it a 24 hr steep before trying it. Had planed on steeping for 3 days but my 30ml didn’t make it that long. I don’t typically have trouble waiting but it was already good and SO tasty! It’s a butter pecan ice cream vape. If you like that type of ice cream &/or vape profile, you’ll love it. It’s simply rich and delicious!

    Let me know which one shots you got from Chef's and how you like them. I've only tried Lemon Coconut Cream Cake and Ginger Rogers and they are both fantastic. I was eyeing some other's when I was window shopping at Chef's this weekend but didn't get any. May have to pick more up in the future. :)

    I thought I had more actual Chef’s 1 shots but I only have Fluffy Nuts & English Trifle. I got quite a few VTA flavors through them which other mixers have claimed they’re 1 shots but can’t say for sure from experience yet. I have several of their ice creams and custards, carrot cake and plenty others I need to sft for 1 shot potential. I have so much to try I need to prioritise:p

    I had my husband vape my G&T and someone asked for the recipe so I took a closer look at it, and there is NO WAY that what I added to the Lemon Rhubarb tart would have resulted in like, what I was tasting. This serves me right for labeling the day after instead of the day of, like I bet I put the tray down backwards or something.

    I have a hunch it is my Margarita lemon/lime mix honestly. I'm going to have to taste the other mix and see if I overdid the rhubarb (probably).

    BUT! I handed it to the husband to taste test and he said "G&T" immediately. LOL, then he said his second guess would have been "lemon zima over ice that went flat." LOL so I'm either doing something very wrong, or very right with this mix (and I'll have to check out that effervescence thing) once I figure out what it actually IS. Also I got sober before Zima and it was a huge resentment, so I don't even have a taste comparison (to add injury to insult) in fact I solemnly pledged to try Zima if I ever drank again and my only relapse I was too busy being a train wreck to even remember. That annoyed me further.

    I did not make that labeling mistake yesterday. I'm pretty sure that's the only thing it could be, but I'm going to have to figure it OUT. Heh,

    I dripped a little bit of the white chocolate cheesecake with smoked butterscotch today and all I could taste was the butterscotch. It's only been a week so I'm going to try it again in another week.
    Give it 3-4 weeks. For me, the smoked butterscotch laid down considerably with steeping. At two weeks it was still quite up front, and almost tossed it.

    Is that a lot for one shots? I think I’d like to try a couple. I bought some from someplace but so far only 2 were decent.
    No idea, that’s why I was asking. Not sure I want enough to make 500ml if I don’t know I’m going to love it. Especially for almost $30... that could be spent on a lot of flavors
