According to mindfloodz re the Calliper Chow:

"Taste like Muddy Buddies. My only hangup is this light off-note that comes from the Calipitter. It’s like this odd coffee type note. It does however seem to steep out, and isn’t very distracting to begin with."
I get no chocolate (not something I taste well though), and definitely not coffee. I can’t vape coffee. But I do get the bakery being there. Sometimes I get that from AP though.
I wish there was a way to do a chemical analysis and see what flavors it really is. I think a) it’s probably way fewer flavors involved than people think, and b) we’re probably all wrong about what it is.

Actually if you read my earlier post, I didn't get the wrong coils. At least that's what they told me.



You must be stronger than me if you're working with two 52lb dumbells. I could lift them but wouldn't be able to do much once I got them off the ground.



I did try the baked orange at 3% in a sft. I very much liked it and it's one of very few sft that I actually finished the whole 10ml of.
Was it zesty to you? Or more of a soft orange?

I was responding (kidding you) to the part of the “I didn’t remember winning the mod or requesting a different coil” part of the post. Although with the piles of reviews plus orders you get, forgetting one isn’t surprising.

    To me it's a soft orange. I really don't get zesty from it. I guess you could add some lemon zest to it to see if that helps if you have it.

    I got REALLY zesty. That’s why I asked. Even if I mistook 0.1% for 1%, that wouldn’t explain it since you did 3%.

    eh ok what to mix...I have my sort of coffee mix (I added some stuff to it so now it's more of a coffee flavored dessert), I have banana chocolate pudding steeping, cherry cobbler steeping, and another attempt at guava cheesecake pastry steeping
    nothing's jumping out at me screaming make me make me

    My taste buds might not be as good as yours. Also, I tested it on a zenith rather than a DTL tank.

    I tried the Calipitter Chow. Steeped a whole 24 hours :rolleyes:. It’ll be interesting to see what it changes to.

    I’m getting nuts definitely, whole roasted nuts, a hint of PB. It reminds me of a mix of a Munch candy bar (it’s like peanut brittle) and those little brown and white striped peanut butter candies wrapped in cellophane I used to get at the dime store in the 60’s. There’s a brittle/dark caramel kind of vibe, but not particularly sweet. Definitely tastes like AP is in there. And something crunchy/cookie. I haven’t tried many tobaccos so take this with a grain of salt… I get a hint of tobacco (not like Ry4 double, more tobacco-y). But that could be the nuttiness
    Oops. Maybe. I added FA Nut mix to mine and would not have if I knew it had that much nuttiness to it. I will know and tell in a couple of weeks but I am not as good as NolaMel at descriptions. Mine are kind of like "good, sort of sweet" Or "dry and dark"

    No "sort of tart"?

    How did you find this post on elr? I tried searching and came up with zero.

    :)
    Most likely it was posted in one of the fb diy groups. I’m behind, but if no one pointed you to it, I’ll pm you a photo of the recipe

    I’m using a sceptre, with 58 yo taste buds. Betting you got a better idea than me lol.
    It tastes like biting into an orange peel. I’m going to mix a 5 ml tester of one pudding plus the bakery orange and see if the bitter/sharp repeats. I may have gotten a mismarked bottle, or something.

    @classwife, I'm looking to make your Cup of Joe recipe. Looks like you only used 1ml of Cup of Joe in the 50ml bottle. Is that correct?
    She did

    So yea...I'm speedy...
    I made a 50ml bottle
    1ml Cup of Joe
    2ml Sweet Cream
    1/2ml Vanilla Swirl

    Thanks. That's what I was looking at, but for some reason it struck me as a tiny amount. Must be pretty strong. I have a bottle arriving tomorrow and am anxious to try it. I've never made a coffee vape.
