Random DIY mixing and More

[vaper1960]

I meant to reply to a recent post of yours where you mentioned the nic levels you were at.

When I quit before (by vaping) started with 18 mg but after awhile settled on 12 mg (all MTL) What I'm doing now is my usual 12 mg MTL but also doing some full blown DL at 6mg (that's totally working)

I haven't had a kumquat in ages, but I would eat them whole, peel, seeds and all. Just like eating grapes.

Hey Terri... just noticed your signature

I used Ice Cream Vanilla. Haven't gotten around to trying the plain IC one yet.

Maybe 3.5% is the magic number then. Or, the plain ssa ic is dulling in some way. I’ll mix the vanilla ic solo and see how that does.

Steeped 2 weeks. Used FA Premium custard at 1%, SSA Ice Cream at 1% and SSA Ice Cream Vanilla at 1 1/2%.

You need to up the custard premium to 3-5% imo.

I made a second tester with custard prem added. It moves it up to “good”, but nothing fabulous. I think it would serve as a good base though. I think you’re right though, a heavy cream to help with the mouthfeel is needed

What percentages did you use? I think you've got be quite heavy with the percentages for a creamy custard....try that raspberry custard I posted without the fruits....it's a really good base. Steep two weeks minimum but six weeks is better....most custards need a really long steep in my experience

If tracking is correct, five more review samples waiting for me when I get home.

Cripes....that's a heavy workload!!

Ok then. Next time I'm at Whole Foods I'll look for kumquats and squeeze out the innards and eat the peel.
Although doesn't that sound absolutely backwards?
Scratching my head to think of another fruit or veggie where you toss the innards and eat the peel.

You don't need to throw anything away....just eat the whole thing

Morning all
Going to test my Mango Cream properly today.....just a small amount then leave the rest for a longer steep. The tiny bit I did test was nice. I really like that FLV Mango.....did I say that before

I've never heard of them either, but they have a nice selection.
Has anybody used them before?

Yes, I have.

 

[FranC]

Good morning random folks Have you any plans today?

 

[hittman]

Good Morning Mixers. Finished up my $4000 bone box and stowed it away last night. Three VV Grands, two VV Woddvil and a VV stabilized Woodvil, seven Woodvil including three plunger mods, eight RM2, four Chalice III, a Cyclone, two Veritas (one of which is BF), two Invoke, a VT Inbox, a Beserker, two Kayfun, several other atomizer and tanks, and a small box of drip tips. All cleaned, polished, waxed, and put away for posterity or the vapeageddon. And that's just what I remember off the top of my fading memory.
Whole lot of trips down memory lane there.
Probably try to mix a few new recipes today. RJ's Trinity looks like one I might like.

What mods are in use?

 

[FranC]

Just one lonesome mod? What is it?

 

[Zazie]

lol, yes and my family just couldn't wrap their heads around eating the peel and tossing the middle so they were not fans.

I just bite the peel and go in a circle like peeling an apple only it is with my teeth.

That sounds kind of fun.

 

[PapawBrett]

What mods are in use?

Four Reos Grands and two Reos P67. The Grands have Galaxies, and the P67 have RM 2 and a Strike.

 

[rosesense]

Bull City has Kumquat flavoring. I am so tempted.

You don't need to throw anything away....just eat the whole thing

If they're organic, I don't throw any part of citrus fruits into the compost (except the seeds). I cut the peel and pith into small strips that I freeze and add a bit at a time to my daily smoothie. The pith is full of flavonoids, and the peel in small doses is safe and very tasty. You should give it a whirl, Charlie.
