Plans for today folks? I have some plans but I don't know if they'll get done today.It depends on what time this afternoon the mail gets here.I have one mix to do and a few testers.
Seems I have several mixes that are 1 month steeped including the Stixx mix stuff.I guess trying some mixes is my plan for today.
Apologies if already been mentioned... Cornbread Pudding, Corn Pudding, Popcorn Pudding or maybe use for texturing. These first come to mind for me anyway. Though I haven’t tried it yet and can’t say from experience.
Didn’t visit ECF for a couple days and missed out on BCF's big sale
Oh well, think I’ll survive
Whenever I’ve had time the last couple days I’ve been looking back at screen shots of recipes from here on ECF. Quite a few are yours. I’ve favorited at least a handful, for ease in finding, to add to my mix list. Your White Chocolate Hazelnut definitely sounds good to me
As a kid I used to LOVE those side of the street snow ice stands (or snow cones) with that delectable Italian cream toppingDon't forget I still have this mixed to test @ 1.5%. They were mixed on 8/5 so just coming up soon on the 1 month mark. The 30 ml of 1.5 is quite tasty(tiny taste on tip of finger). The 5 ml and the 10 ml are definitely steeping and smell much stronger. So the 5 ml tester does steep even in small quantities. Plan to use just 1ml of the 5 ml tester and 2 ml of the 10 ml tester. Just haven't decided what to mix them in yet if anything. Suggestions?
I ALWAYS wanted extra cream topping I now mix a blue razz snow ice with Italian cream. Hangsens Italian cream is perfect for this. We just LOVE it! I don’t want to share all the percentages for the recipe because they’re high but it works
Percentages didn’t start out high but after an addition here and there... I live in a small community and I’ve got everyone who vapes on this one
They can’t get enough!
I’ll have to mix these upI mix the Hazelnut and cream at 6%
Skittles - I have mixed this at different % from 5 to 10%. Currently around 7 is where I like it altho all % are good.
Succulent Strawberry - I started this at 10% but it became too strong. Currently at 8%
Buttermint - Strong at 8% but some like a strong mint, I like mine a little softer, so I use 6%.
These flavors have been good at any % that I have mixed, it is just a matter of personal preference.
I usually wait 24 hours to vape them as the flavors settle down a bit.
Thanks for sharing this!
Nothing at all wrong with high percentages. some of my recipes are still 15+ %.As a kid I used to LOVE those side of the street snow ice stands (or snow cones) with that delectable Italian cream topping
Agree. Some flavors are just not as concentrated as others. I mix FA SOHO as a single flavor at 11%. Most FA flavors I find just right at 1% to 2%.
Thank you! No hurry, when you get a little time. I need to dedicate a day to cleaning out and organizing my stash. It currently looks like fasttech threw up in my closet
Oh please share your recipe(if you want to). I for one would love it.As a kid I used to LOVE those side of the street snow ice stands (or snow cones) with that delectable Italian cream topping
Most of my recipes used to be in the 20-30% range but I'm finding after listening to others in this thread that I can cut that down to usually around 10 or so if I'm willing to wait for it to steep. I used the higher percentages before because I just wanted to snv. This thread has really helped me cut my percentages and learn a little bit of patience when it comes to steeping.
I did do a sft for the FLV ginger peach I got from ecigexpress. Tested it at 4%. Way to strong....ginger takes over and I can tell there is another flavor but don't taste peach, just a very slight sweetness. Going to try again at 2% and probably also at 1%.
Not going to try to put it in Fran's Fizzy rum yet. Since I did get the TFA ginger ale today, will mix it exactly as her recipe says.
Also did a sft on FW ginger ale at 15%. Not bad as a stand alone at that % but its only had a 4 day steep so it will grow stronger. It is always hard to gauge FW flavors on where to start because they are all over the map when it comes to starting %. Some are better at way lower % and yet their web site lists it as to start @ 15%. I think they just got lazy and made that the standard starting % of all of their flavors because from experience I know its not true for ALL of them.

Not sure if anyone on here still mixes with TFA flavorings or not. But as I was going through my file of Bill's Magic Vapor recipes I'd saved...I noticed that I'd starred his Root Beer Float recipe as 1 I wanted to make sometime. His original % were higher than I wanted to use now, so I made mine at 1/2 of his %. It's ridiculously simple yet tastes so good!
Root Beer Float - 5%
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 2.5%
Sweetener - 2%
Koolada - 0.5%
I don't like Koolada though, so I used just 3 drops of WS-23 in the 30mL mix I made. I didn't want hardly any "cooling effect" in mine.
The Root Beer Float flavoring has Ethanol in it, and it was harsh to me as an immediate S&V, like ethyl alcohol is...so I shook the mix like crazy and left it uncapped for about 18 hours. Was smoother this morning, and I really like it! Next batch will most likely be either a 100mL or a 120mL.

Are there any other flavor note sites besides ELR? So many of the notes are just copy and paste from other notes.
Thanks

That sounds delicious!!! My last mix session I whipped up 2 of his Recipes that you were kind enough to send me- Pink Starburst & Tropical Paradise. I left the percentages as is since they were under 25% and I like high flavoring. However there are a few recipes that I’ll drop from 30ish% to probably around 15-20% when I make them.
