Random DIY mixing and More

[DLKnives]

Morning Randoms!

I have a Gastro Doc appt today for knee surgery clearance. I also got a call from a medical supply and set an appt for getting a CPAP machine on 7/23 and my (hopefully) last appt with the lung doc is 7/26. Whew! Then final clearance from my Primary and we can set a date for surgery.

Really hope all goes well

One more coffee and then I need to clean the bathroom. Then I need to mix.

I did the Abyss and accessories from Dovpo but didn't get the other one that I was expecting. That's ok though. I've still got the voopoo drag X PLus Pro to finish the review on and now the Abyss. The Abyss is going to take a while with all the accessories. I know I have at least five more samples coming if not more. Just not sure when they will arrive. I don't always get tracking.

Good to hear the samples are still coming.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen,
I have switched around on Zenith II glass, the black one looks pretty good with smoked glass, there is a bit of yellow skin in the smoked look of Innokin, I'm not really a super fan, but I look at it as if I have enough spare glass though.

The rest of the day is spent cleaning, and I'll have a couple of walks for my own part.

Sorry for the yellow tinge. I wouldn't like that either.

The last coffee is gone. Time to think about mixing.

Good morning random folks. Have you any plans today?

I mixed 300ml of my husband's ejuice, and have physical therapy in a few hours...

that's it. there's no cooking on the menu, just leftover roast and potatoes. I will set the brisket out to thaw and get it in the marinade tonight to cook tomorrow though... it's summer, summer time is barbeque season! woohoo!

One never finds out without trying, bought and tried. Now the juice is not crystal clear, so it probably does a little too.
One thing I do not recommend are the white zenith II drip tips, they are not as comfortable as the Zlide drip tips are, and Zlide's white dt looks very good on the white Coolfire.

I ordered the Zlide dt's from FT. One of each color.

One mix is done. It won't get a long steep due to lemon. I could have added it later but didn't choose to.

I have 2 Amarulu mixes to get done now plus my weird mix.

I did a pile of 2-3 MF mixes yesterday to try and get a handle on them. Mostly fruits. And two of the mint, one solo, one with white chocolate and vanilla. Today, I need to do some regular mixes

 

[FranC]

I'm just putting temp names on my mixes. Aramulu one, Amarulu Two. My weird mix will be labeled weird. Whatever mixes are good get a proper name.

Four mixes done and put away. I could use at least another couple. Leaving my cases out in case I get any ideas.

I've been testing my IC, chocolate mousse and sugar cone mix this morning.

VTA Chocolate Mousse with the IC base is excellent.

WF Sugar Cone tastes like a waffle cone (Drumstick cone). It has a mid level sweetness. I want to say it has about the same level of sweetness as crispy wafer does. Sugar cone is a convincing, and tasty, waffle cone.

IMO sugar cone works better as a cone with the IC. Better than either WF Crispy Wafer or SSA Crisp Waffle? Yes.

I added the following to the IC base:

VTA Chocolate Mousse 2%
WF Sugar Cone 1.5%

well I completely remixed another batch of the OSDIY baked cinnamon roll and instead of using Fuji Apple I used MF Green Apple instead and this isn't too sweet. It came to me that the Fuji was probably imparting too much sweet because it's a sweeter apple generally, and now with the medicine flower green apple and an 11 day steep it's working perfectly...

yeah! I don't know why that didn't come to me sooner though... haha
