ECF tutorial for the day (;)):
We only receive one notification per watched thread, until we clear it by reading through the current end. The exception to this is, if one of your previous posts is quoted or liked, or if you are tagged in someone else's post. For each of those occurrences; you receive individual notification.;)

As fast as posts are sometimes being made to this thread, I am guessing, that you were reading through the thread, while additional posts were being made, and you may have missed one or more of the most recent posts (updates while "in thread" are a bit sketchy from time to time; for me anyway). The system figures you have already been notified and doesn't issue another one.

I don't think I would be concerned, unless you don't get any further notification for this thread, at all. Then, I would first try "unwatching" the thread, the "watching" it again. If that doesn't fix things; then I would notify admin.:D


Yes !
I always refresh the page when I am done (think I am done ) reading a thread in case more posts land while I am reading.


Thanks Joel! Once again, you always seem to have my answers:)


Yeppers :) Joel is on it !

    I most likely won't be trying it for a few days. Unless you insist.But it will change...........
    No, just do you! I like trying just a bit of my new mixes before I put them away but you’re right, they’ll change. So wouldn’t be a true review. I have several steeping now that I know they’re going to be really good just based on the initial taste. Can’t wait (but I will) as they all need a good steep! Some might be too sweet but one I mixed yesterday is only mildly sweet. I’ll post it for anyone who might be interested.

    I’m not sure why but I stopped getting notifications for this thread sometime yesterday. I just had 5 pages to catch up! Good stuff though. When I’m busy I jump off and on as I can only checking notifs. This evening it dawned on me that I haven’t received any. So I check and I’m still “watching this thread”. Is this odd or have others experienced?
    I wanted to mention a mixer I came across on ELR a bit ago who goes by Smokey Blue. A few weeks ago I found a recipe I wanted to mix which called for Graham Cracker followed by Smokey Blue as if it was the brand. In the comments a couple mentioned how good it is. I searched and searched online but found nothing of Smokey Blue flavorings. So when I stumbled across SB today, I was elated! I’ve never seen recipes the way SB writes them! They’re between around 2-4% total flavoring using around 7-11 flavors, all under 1%. And all comments are as if SB’s mixes are the best ever! Maybe Smokey Blue &/or SB recipes aren’t new to you all here, but I find them rather intriguing and can’t wait to learn from them!
    She primarily uses super concentrates and she likes low flavor content. Recipes are good. You can find her blog on FLV website. HIC also uses low flavor percentages and is another good one to follow. He has some great flavor notes for Flavourart.

    I’ll definitely check out her blog and HIC’s flavor notes. I haven’t looked at him closely but have seen recipes which look intriguing to me. Thanks!

    What sort of recipe did you use it in?
    Seems to be good from what I've read. Not a flavor that interests me so I won't be trying.

    Still tweaking the kiwi cheesecake Fran. Have a new cheesecake and cream cheese to test.

    Pistachio Brûlée

    .5% Acetyl Pyrazine 5% (TPA)
    1% Aged Bourbon Cream (SC) (Real Flavors)
    .5% Booster (Tiramisu) (FA)
    .75% Brown Sugar (TPA)
    4.2% Creme Brulee (INAWERA)
    2% New York Cheesecake (Purilum)
    7% Pistachio (TPA)

    PG/VG-ratio: 35/65
    Flavor total: 15.95%

    Although very different, inspired by TheJuiceFairy’s Pistachio Brûlée - Soho. It uses tobacco flavors and also looks quite tasty, even though I don’t mix with tobaccos. I can’t link it but it can easily be found on that recipe site. Also, keep in mind that I have trouble tasting some flavors. So you might want to drop down some percentages such as INW creme brûlée. I recommend starting it around 2% and maybe even PUR NY cheesecake could be dropped by .5+. I really feel TFA pistachio needs to be where it is but after it steeps several weeks at least, I may or may not change it to FA pistachio. If it vapes when steeped at all like it taste now, it’ll be heavenly! I tried a bit last night and am excited to see how it develops. Atm it isn’t too sweet at all and I don’t think it will be later but I won’t know for certain until next month. High hopes for this one:p

    Looks good for a custard lover. I may adapt this this for a cream mix. Looks to be a winner.

    Most welcome! If you find a perfect mix for you after tweaking, please share. I know it’ll be a while but... I’m not sure if it’ll be closer to 2-3 weeks steep or 5-6 weeks but I’ll find out soon enough.

    Later on I'll post my original recipe that let me know it is something I would love with tweaking. I didn't have very many flavors then but it might give you ideas.
