Random DIY mixing and More

[NolaMel]

So far I've tried my SSA ice cream base separately with strawberry, island mango, starfruit and oranges. And also tried combinations of those. I whipped up another 60mls of ic base this morning. I really like the SSA ice creams.

I have ic with VT dark chocolate steeping atm. Once I have the chocolate where I want it SSA crisp waffle will be added for the cone and then FLV peanut butter for the nut flavor.

@NolaMel, where are you at with your nutty buddy? And what caramel and butterscotch were you thinking of using?

MF for the candy side. My ic is still steeping, so you’re waaaay ahead of me. I did mix it with the crisp waffle to try and catch up.
Since @hittman said Julia Su’s almond croissant recipe was sweet, I’m thinking of pulling half and adding MF dark chocolate to see if that eats up some of the sweet. Or maybe black currant? Haven’t decided
Also want to try Id10-T’s ic trinity to compare to the SSA mix to see if it’s closer to the ic in a nutty buddy. It’s a pretty thin ic irl... reminds me of frozen cool whip

Good morning random folks. Have you any plans today?

I'm about to start doing the oil changes on all the vehicles.

So you must not be a big fan of squonking if you never use them.

I like squonking and it was my primary mode of vaping for the last 4 or 5 years. However, here lately the rtas coming out have been really good and flavor very comparable to rdas. .

But if you must, one rda here lately has really impressed me. It's a single coil rda (I normally do dual), very easy to build, but a tad hard to find -- the Citadel rda by psyclone mods. It's basically a revised version of the Hadaly rda.

Blueberry dream:
bavarian cream-fw-4%
blueberry-fw-6%
sweet cream-fw-1%
vanilla custard-cap-1%
vanilla swirl-tfa-1%
Sub at will, I always use which ever brands I have on hand.
I do add a few drops of lemon, seems like it helps the blueberry.

Vaping this version right now made 3/30/21 - delicious in Zeus X RTA @ 60W

What is the airflow like on that RDA? I would be wanting something that leans more towards MTL or RDL.

RTA not RDA - Not anything near MtL or restricted.

Blotto is RDL
So is Hellvape Rebirth

restricted is not my cuppa mud but these are 2 good RDL RTAs

EDIT - I just noticed that you asked someone else about their RDA not me.
Same difference - Blotto & Rebirth are decent RTL RTAs

I had bookmarked that recipe recently. It looks promising.

Original recipe maker SteamCraft vouches for FA Bilberry to replace Blueberry Extra
I made the original recipe first but I'll try it with the bilberry mod if I decide to follow up

Great recipe! Thanks for sharing.
FWIW, if you substitute 3% Blueberry Extra for 1% (FA) Bilberry it'll blow your mind. Bilberry is perfect if you're shooting for true blueberry flavor.

Thanks everyone for the wonderful feedback! Dubbya I tried out the Bilberry, Can definitely recommend that now. Excellent sub for Blueberry Extra.

Your daughter is beautiful.

Thank you. My SIL was paralyzed from the waist down in a logging accident years ago.

It’s almost a snv. Would be nice for a quickie/no time to steep recipe with a fruit added.

Those flavors are on my list for my next BCF order. Except for Vanilla Swirl, which I already have.

Hazelnut Cream:
Butterscotch Ripple-fw-2%
Hazelnut-fw-4.5%
VBIC-cap-4%
Fresh Cream-fa-1.5%
I used which flavor brands that I have.
The original recipe calls for .5% of sweetener, I left that out.

I've been enjoying most excellent standalone FW Hazelnut Cream 10% Max VG with 2-3% DW
I'll try your recipe to compare. Thanks

 

[Diver9543]

For this mix I did 4% VT Pudding Base and 3% WF Island Mango.

I'm making another list for flavors from BCF.

I think I’ll be 12 in July. Years on ecf anyway.

I didn’t join ecf right off.

I was 6 in February. I had set my birthday, Feb 25th, as my quit date, and the next day, Feb 26th, I found and joined ECF. No regrets at all. I've not had a tobacco cigarette since then.

What is the airflow like on that RDA? I would be wanting something that leans more towards MTL or RDL.

Psyclone has the Citadel in-stock. Psyclone Citadel 22mm

Another one you might like is the Atmizoo Creek. I have a couple. Of all the RDA's I own I would rank the Creek in the 1st or 2nd spot for flavor. It comes with everything you need to do MTL, RDL or DL. The design is like no other RDA in that it has bottom, directly under the coil, AF. @NolaMel has one. In fact she brought it to my attention a couple years ago.

ETA: The Creek is a great RDA for squonking.

 

[Zazie]

Do need to start thinking about some new, "change of pace" mixes, lots of my "regulars" on hand, so not critical. Yet. It is occasionally a small challenge to keep 12 different flavors going

Are you under a curse that requires this or you turn into a squirrel or something?

It's RDL in my opinion and could be closed tighter, but you may be disappointed with it as an mtl rda.

Airflow of course can be just as subjective as flavors. What I consider tight you might consider airy. I think even when I vape mtl, unless I am using a kayfun, I am more towards being very airy.

I believe SMT squonks some and does mtl.

I thought about looking at the 510 pin. I'll do that after work. It seems to depend on the battery type. But lately it's happening to every battery. I only use one tank on this mod. Will alcohol on a Qtip work?

That's what I used when my Solo started refusing to believe an atomizer was attached to it.

 

[Zazie]

I evidently didn't sleep well last night and am experiencing what I would call mild symptoms from my second vaccine. My arm is pretty sore and muscles are achy. I have a bit of mental fog but am not sure if that's because of not sleeping well. I feel like I could get a headache. It's kind of lingering but not really coming out as a full blown headache.

The second one is supposed to be harder. Take it as a positive: the vaccine is working!

I ordered two of them from Psyclone. During roadsides closeout sale I snagged a citadel for a little more than $30. I wasn't expecting to care for it really, just bought it for the mech mods. It may be my favorite rda right now.
