That's a good read. Thank you.

The Stella Park article makes me think these might be useful as additives after all.

Malted Milk-TFA

Malt-NF


Serious Eats is a very good resource with a ton of good info.
I have the TFA… it’s in the I need it, maybe/ I’m afraid to try it pile :lol:

Per the article @Zazie posted it has all sorts of uses in many different recipes. Made me think I'm missing something important.

Went and looked at my flavors... who knew, I have NF Malt. :w00t:

Pretty sure it was a I had to have it flavor but never knew exactly what to do with it. That or I forgot what recipe I bought it for. Now I have ideas for using it in small amounts.

I’ve had TFA Malted Milk for ages. It actually has a use?

    Not sure about the TFA but the NF Malt is said to be quite sweet.

    Thank you. I added it to my cart. Seeing as it's the only toasted coconut for a reasonable price. If it just needs a decent steep I can deal with that.
    You guys might be interested to know that PUR NY cheesecake has a coconut note to it (it does eventually steep out but doesn't bother me anyway) Not really sure if this relates.

    My coolfire just came! It’s so small and light. I definitely want more for the stash. @Uncle , don’t forget to put a link here when you post your review. I’m interested to hear what you have to say about the new zenith
    That's interesting, cause it seemed to me reading between the lines of hitt's review and etc that it was sort of average size and weight for that type of mod.
    I've got one coming, whenever they decide to ship it.
    Looking forward to it. Not that I needed it. But you all know how that works.

    I’ve got it in my hand right now. To me it’s average size for an 18650 mod.

    I used PUR Cheesecake for awhile. Never took a big liking to it so I piffed.
    It's the only one I have but wouldn't get it again (but adding mascarpone cheese really helped it)... and graham of course.
    Not sure if there is a difference but it's NY cheesecake if that matters.

    As long as it's not unleaded, I'm pretty much good to go. Leaded only for me.

    I used to take my Father-In-Law to our local VA and remember getting the rot gut they had from the machine. It smelled like road tar and tasted god awful. I managed. My FIL thought it was good stuff. He loved his Spam too. And being of Ukranian heritage also thought ethnic blood soup was to die for. I nearly died and almost upchucked the first time I smelled it. Talk about gross. :D
    I can handle bad coffee. I used to enjoy Spam too, until the last couple of times, when it was so salty as to be inedible.
    Blood foods? No no. Only had blood sausage and it was not good at all. Blood soup? Shoot me first.

    Thank you. I added it to my cart. Seeing as it's the only toasted coconut for a reasonable price. If it just needs a decent steep I can deal with that.

    I just found this... https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY_eJuice/comments/6dkqb8/purilum_toasted_coconut_cheesecake/

    Very good dessert flavor. Sweetened toasted coconut is strong and up front, and it's very authentic. Below that I'm getting a sweet pudding like cream, with hints of vanilla and faint graham crust? Not much mouth feel or density as of yet. It is also missing any resemblance to cheesecake at this point. It is more of a coconut cream pie. Missing any cream cheese tanginess right now. I'm enjoying it immensely, and hoping the cream will pop with a longer steep.

    At 4 weeks, this has developed into a nice dense thickness similar to a cheesecake. I'm still not getting any cream cheese though. It's a delicious coconut cream pie, with thick sweet vanilla and coconut pudding and a buttery graham crust. Topped with sweet toasted coconut flakes, and I am amazed at how accurately they hit the toasted flavor.

    Better :) I really like his reviews. I'm anxious to know what you think since I mindlessly "ou! this looks good" tossed it in with my last BCF order. Will you try it first as a single flavor?

    There is a less salt spam.
    Salty spam with diced potatoes & onion makes a great hash.
    Especially if you add jalapeno or habanero to it. The potatoes take out most of the salty & for breakfast after getting it finished in a skillet just top with eggs & bake until the eggs are the way you like them.............fantastic meal...............NOW I'M HONGERY !!!!!
