    @Katmar, Snv=shake n vape. Fruits and light flavors,I feel are snv. Darker, more rich, flavors, like coffee, need a steep, minimum of 2 weeks. Usually you steep with the lids on, but if there is alcohol in the flavor, then steep for about 3 days with the lids off to allow the alcohol to evaporate.

    I'll be doing a kind of hit or miss....several drops per 50ml bottle and go up as necessary. I know to use minimal on the Fresh coffee, dark bean, as they say it's VERY strong. Doing this since I'm not making fancy liquids. Just want a nice coffee with cream and sugar flavor, a candy banana flavor and and island mango. All added to PG/VG 80/20 and NO nicotine.
    Start low with the flavors you add to your PG/VG 80/20 base. It's much easier to start low with flavors and add as needed versus trying to fix a mix where too much flavor was added.

    I don't know what %'s you normally use. With that in mind... if you don't like a lot of flavor I would start the Island Mango at 1% and adjust from there. 1% is 0.3 grams or ~12 drops. I usually mix everything in 30ml bottles. If you are using a 50-60ml bottle just double it, or 2%/0.6 grams/24 drops.

    Which cream do you have for your coffee? Which coffee? Banana flavor?

    :)

    Thanks. I DO have a bunch of 30 ml bottles, that I plan on practicing with. I figured to always start low, cause if you put in too much, ya can't vape it. Thank you for telling me number of drops, since I don't calculate.
    :)

    I finally ordered some flavors. If I use only one, do I need to steep it? And if I use just 2, do I need to steep and for how long on each? I know the answer is somewhere, but you guys are the fastest and easiest to understand!
    it depends on what it is
    typically fruits don't need to steep...just give it a good shake and it's good to vape
    dairy, cheesecake, ect a couple of weeks to a month for it to shine
    chocolate, coffee, liquor, ect I'd say at least a week but a month would probably be better

    but me :p I'm too impatient, I don't steep...I just shake the crap out of everything and then vape away...if it doesn't taste good off the shake, steeping isn't really going to help that much....if it's just meh off the shake, steeping might probably help it. the only thing that I do try to let steep are cheesecakes because they do need time.

    if you don't already have one, get you a good calculator I like this one: Juice Calculator

    I was refilling my Dvarw RTA which has my butterscotch cookie mix in it. It was 1/2 full already with the b-scotch cookie. So I topped it off. After filling it I realized that I topped it off with my ice cream base. :facepalm: Ummm, butterscotch cookie and ice cream work nicely together. It is really good. Cookies and IC! :D

    My ggd took a tumble off a cantering horse. She’s ok outside of a sore leg and she still loves the horse.
    I would hope so. It's not the horse's fault she decided to climb up on its back.

    P.S. I'm glad she's okay.

    Ice cream makes everything better.

    Somewhere between here and there
    Made it back from the hardware store. Two hose reels and a tank sprayer. Flowers were the wife’s target but she didn’t see anything she wanted. We just did Arby’s drive through on the way home. I’ll wait until tomorrow to hang the hose reels. It’s supposed to be nicer tomorrow.

    I entered a couple recipes I want to try in elr earlier but didn’t get them mixed yet.
