Saturday plans: order flavors from my flavorshack win (that should get me mixing again soon.

Write some notes, at some point I'm fairly caught up.

Theraflu maybe I have caught a cold.

Go to my office Christmas Party AIEEEEE why did I say I would go? Gotta find a white elephant gift around the house somewhere. If you don't know that game, it is the WORST. You find the weirdest most awful gifts and wrap them then there is a bunch of "stealing" that can happen.

It combines the worst part of gift giving with the worst part of wrapping something beautifully.

I think the Pontiac's car emblem might be around here somewhere but I also have the feeling the kid wants it/wanted it? I surely don't care at this moment.

Gah. I will feel better soon I'm sure.

Anna, the alkaSeltzer plus "severe cold&flu day" helped me more than theraflu.

I've been riding a bad head cold for 7 days now, theraflu has been my friend. I may break down and get some alka-seltzer now though... The things that come out of my head in the mornings belong in horror movies.... :facepalm::shock:

Today I am trying to vape through sfts to empty bottles for more sfts. Need to get more 10ml bottles (note to self). I have a cold so it's a little disappointing but I mixed them at 5% across the board so they are strong enough.
VTA Sugarloaf pineapple is really tasty by itself. At 5% it has a bit of sour but mostly balanced sweet pineapple, and there's kind of a creamy or almost banana-esque note to it.
Right now I'm trying the last of a YWCC Inw tester in a tank after the Sugarloaf. I've decided I do like the ywcc but it is more of a no bake cheesecake flavor, buttery light crust. From the moment I mixed this I keep associating this with corn for some reason, sounds weird, but it's the sweet melted butter flavor and smell especially that does that for me, I think. Keep thinking kettle corn every time I bring my vape to my face and get a whiff.
Next up will be 5mls of WF Pistachio Cream that has steeped just over a month. 2 weeks ago this was a good flavor but I thought needs some extra pistachio to shine, or a mix.

    I have the sugar loaf pineapple but forgot to try it. It sounds good.

    It is. I'm also sitting on sfts for FLV Pineapple and INW Pineapple. I used the INW in a mix already, it seems to be more of a fresh acidic pineapple. Finger test on the FLV seemed more sweet and cooked, like fruit cup pineapple. Still trying to clone up a pineapple cream and think my next attempt will be mostly a mix of the VTA sugarloaf at 5% and the Inawera pineapple at 2 to 3%.

    Thanks to Fran’s recipe, I got out some tfa flavors in vials from wizard lab that I hadn’t used in ages. I ended up subbing the tfa vanilla swirl in the hazelnut recipe. That was one of the first flavors I ordered back when Bill suggested getting a bunch of vanilla flavors. I have to admit that the vials are much handier than the squeeze bottles when using syringes for measuring.

    I’m testing the reece’s cereal... this is v1 ( Tuesday will be 2 weeks for it). I’m getting more chocolate, a touch of cereal, not pb :(. Not sure if it needs more steep, or % adjustments.
    Dx pb 4%
    Choc chunks 2%
    Cereal 27 3%
    Almond cookie 1%

    Thoughts????

    How does something like acetyl pyrazine play with peanut butter? I'm thinking it would not increase peanut flavor, but I'm curious...
    Never tried it but it should add nuttiness.

    If you have any CAP Peanut Butter, try adding a little of it. I like to use both DX TFA and CAP together when making a PB vape.

    It can definitely help but some folks have a real strong reaction to AP. I'd suggest trying it @ 0.5% or less, at least initially, or else it might end up tasting more like Frito's Corn Chips.

    It does add nuttiness but you can only use a small amount or it tastes like corn chips.

    I would think that 4% pb should stand out. Keep me updated on how it comes out and maybe I’ll mix some up.
    Everything but choc chunks are new for me, and that I’ve only mixed in a choc forward recipes. 4% sounded more than enough. I’m going to put it back till next week and see how it develops.

    You could try adding a drop or two of AP.

    It appears I called it Chocolate Cereal
    Cereal 27 1.5%
    INW Biscuit 1%
    Cap NY Cheesecake 2%
    HS Australian Chocolate .5%
    VT Chocolate Mousse 3%
    INW Custard 2%

    Bit more flavor than usual for me.
    Or did you add bourbon to this? I’m beginning to think you didn’t post the recipe. I can’t find it :(

    Don’t have either of those. Wasn’t sure how I’d feel about PB, so just bought the one
