Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

I got off my .... and got in a mid week workout.

I did a quick mix with the passion fruit and mango I got in my last bcf order. Just threw it in with some pudding base which has become my favorite way of trying new fruits I get. I mixed it last night and am going to try it later. I filled a TPP tank with it and am letting the coil saturate.

That combo is tasty.

Now I got to wondering why I would even buy a DL RTA. So funny, I looked at my order on FT and both mine are MTL. So this is a good thing because I have 5 inserts with one and have the bad one changed. Will suffer through seeing to coil it tomorrow.

I had good luck with Rob Fisher's Exocet method right from the start, @FranC. No leaking even with thinned-out rayon tails. @ShowMeTwice posted the video earlier, I think, but here it is again, just in case:

That’s my method. Works great.

I also found and ordered a set of 10 inserts up to 3mm

That is correct. I don't know if you have the older Dvarw DL or the newer Dvarw DL FL.

The Dvarw DL FL has a 2x2.5mm airflow insert installed by default. That comes out to a total airflow of 3.54mm.

IIRC, the OG Dvarw DL came with the 3.5mm AF insert installed by default. KHW Mods optionally sells several other size airflow inserts for both.

The OG Dvarw MTL and newer MTL FL have a default 1.2mm airflow. They sell optional AF inserts for the MTL versions. Pretty sure Fasttech did for the OG, not sure if they do for the MTL FL.

I have several of the authentic versions and bought mine direct from KHW Mods in Hungary. I bought some optional airflow inserts for each of my Dvarw's.

On my Dvarw MTL's I installed the 2.5mm AF in a couple for a much airier MTL and also for a tighter restricted DL. I left one at 1.2mm specifically for a tighter hit. On my Dvarw DL FL I installed a 2.5mm AF insert. My OG DL still has the default installed.

ETA: Depending on which ones you bought from FT, or wherever, they may have come with some of the optional AF inserts.

Absolutely, positively, corr ??????????????............


WHAT CHU SED, LEWIS ???????????

I don't know how you survive in such temperatures, @DLKnives, even with air conditioning. They would destroy me.

Well I guess it'll destroy us too as our AC once again quit working and they can't come out until tomorrow. Gonna be a hot night - she is talking about going to her daughter's house just down the road but I won't go. Plus we have the dog Izzy!

It's 104 at 7pm and 85 in the house. Have fans running but this is brutal and frankly I am sick of going through this every year.

Testing FA's new Vanilla Cookie (1%) today. I am very impressed. It's a rich, buttery, plain vanilla cookie. It is nothing like CAP Sugar Cookie v1 (sickly sweet). The vanilla and butter notes are tucked in nicely behind the cookie. There are no off notes.

There is a mid level sweetness. I do like FA VC as is, it's not too sweet for me. A little SSA Shortbread Cookie (0.25%-0.5%) would work well to further reduce sweetness, if desired.

I'm happy I bought a 2oz bottle before BCF pulled it. Currently only Chef's and Nom Nomz are selling it.

IMO, it is very different than any of the other cookie flavors out there. FA did an excellent job with Vanilla Cookie.

Why did BCF pull it? Sounds great.

DL, sorry to hear about your AC. Hopefully your wife takes Izzy with her. That heat is no good for the critters. Try your best to stay cool. Ice packs or cold washcloths if needed.

I'm so sorry, @DLKnives.

Probably naughty ingredients.

That really sucks.

 

[hittman]

That’s my method. Works great.

I’m going to try that next time. I tried the other method and I’m getting a little popping after it has sat a while unused.

It works really good. SMT posted it right when I needed it. LOL

That’s terrible. I’d be at Lowe’s or Home Depot buy a portable ac. Pick a room and cool that room.

I found out FANA, Flavour Art North America, had BCF pull it. FA won't sell any of their flavors with diacetyl in the USA. They also pulled Custard 1 and Amarula from BCF. Only places to get them now are Chef's and Nom Nomz (both in the UK).

 

[newyork13]

Thanks. I've never ordered from either one of those. But, the pulled flavors sound great, so I may give one of them a shot.
Any preferences between Chef's versus Nom Noms anyone?

I’ve never had a problem with Chef’s. I placed my first order with NomNomz and it just shipped.

They have a dog that will kill our dog and went after me the last time I went over there. No if I have to go I'll take her to a hotel that takes pets.

If it’s that hot you should do that.
