Good morning folks,
Øsa was at her best but we heard little, the only thing was the raindrops lol
When the deer stuck out in a straight direction she let go, which is +++ in my book. I was able to blow her back at 450 meters, which is another +++.
We were soaked, but otherwise had an excellent day.
And as usual, no deers shot.
The day was, as expected, heavy rain.

We did get a little bit of an early start on Xmas but got distracted by the car getting stolen. I never really want much of anything for Xmas so figured it wouldn't hurt to buy myself a couple things vape related. The flavors I bought are ones I use so that's more of just a restock. However the Ether boro kit and the blue Centaurus M200 are a little bit of a different story.
Morning, mixers, and happy Friday 
More rain, and we're still liking it
Good you finally got the car to the dealer, Hitt! Sheesh. Do let State Farm know!!

I mixed the following and let it steep for 5 weeks:
Golden pineapple-cap-4%
Sugarloaf pineapple-vt-2%
Graham cracker clear-tfa-1%
Pear-inw-.5%
Cookie-fa-2%
Vanilla ice cream-lb-4%
Whipped cream-ssa-1%
It turned out to be pretty good, but I can barely taste the pineapple. The question for my next mix is, do I increase the pineapple or decrease the cookie and/or the graham cracker? It seems as if the cookie has taken over.

Good morning random folks.
CO sister (BTW: aka "Elder" / "Older" Sister) plan a day of legal paper work. Maybe dinner out somewhere nice, unless one of us strangles the other before then . . .
Just Sayin' . . . .

I have been playing phone tag with the dealer this morning. They couldn't find the key my wife dropped off on Wednesday at first but it's all under control right now. They are going to do a full inspection on it.Morning, mixers, and happy Friday

I would either drop the cookie to 1% or try a different pineapple. Cap flavors are notoriously weak. Maybe try VTA sugarloaf pineapple instead at a higher percentage. I mixed it solo for my brother in law at 6% and he liked it but he's still dual using. Is the FA cookie you are using the Cookie Premium?
The cookie is not Cookie Premium. Your advice is very much appreciated, thanks.
On my next attempt I'm going to lower the golden pineapple to 2%, raise the sugarloaf pineapple to 4%, lower the cookie to 1% and lower the graham cracker to .5%????

I've been working for weeks or months on a blackcurrant recipe. For some reason I got stuck in a rut. Mixed SFT's of 3 different blackcurrants and each possible combination of 2, so I have 6 KFL's sitting on my desk. Kept trying them every day. I liked one best but the next day I liked another one best and couldn't make my mind up.
Last night I got fed up with myself and decided to make a decision before I went to bed. Now I have a candidate. I'm going to mix 3 versions with different %'s of the 2 blackcurrants and set a deadline to choose. Then I can add some meringue.
Never got stuck like that before. Normally it's a couple of hits and done.
Meanwhile the temps have been in the 70's recently. That just doesn't happen round here in Nov.
I try not to rant on here about non-vaping stuff. Read on if you are bored or whatever.
All this year I've been fighting in a bloody battle in our town over a new levee. We have 300 houses set in a loop in the river with a canal on the other side, mostly small old houses on big lots. Then over the last couple of decades several millionaires moved in, bought multiple lots, knocked down the old houses, and built mansions along the levee. They used their money power to bypass the planning rules and build on top of the levee. One power couple have an elegant $3.5M mansion partly built on top of the levee with beautiful views of the river, and they own 12 rentals in town as well. Most of the houses are in the 100K to 200K range. Now the 100 year old levee is failing and the City is ready to rebuild it. Their engineers estimated an 8% annual chance of a flood, increasing to 15% in ten years.
In a flood the town would be under 10' of water and the city have said they would condemn the whole town if that happened. But to rebuild the levee they have to tear down 7 mansions that are built on top of the levee. The mansion dwellers don't care if the town floods, they would just buy new mansions somewhere else.
The upper class fought furiously against the levee rebuild. They used their contacts to plant stories in the local newspapers and TV stations and plastered the town with professional yard signs and hired lawyers. Every month this year their crew showed up at the town board meetings and tried to monopolise the conversation with moral outrage and conspiracy theories and other nonsense. They even brought local TV crews in a couple of times. I was in there every month launching loud angry rants just to disrupt them. I distributed a flyer and knocked on doors, recruited supporters to join me at the board meetings. The town board is planning to hold a town vote later this month and there seems to be around 80% in favor of the new levee. There's not a lot of sympathy for entitled millionaires so soon they will be gone and the rest of us will have a nice new levee.
Sadly there are some not-rich residents who will also lose their houses. Including one couple in their 90's who have lived here all their lives. Those 3 houses would have been saved if not for cost of buying out the millionaires.

I think I remember you briefly mentioned that before about the levee. I'm glad it's working out in your favor.
Rude really made me mad this morning. She didn’t make me coffee. Good thing I noticed right away and made my own.
I got my Innokin Z60 review posted at lunch.

INNOKIN COOLFIRE Z60 KIT review by hittman
I know it hasn’t been that long ago since I covered the Innobar C1 for Innokin but here I am again with what I think is a new and exciting kit from Innokin. This time I was sent not one but two Innokin Coolfire Z60 kits in order to provide you...

Happy Day all, I got a new gaming mouse today to play Star Citizen with as my old one was making me shoot my ship's guns when I didn't touch the button. That is NOT good lol. This new one seems great, it's a Logitech G305 with programmable buttons.
61 here, have agreat day everyone!

All depends on what you want to feature as the main note(s). I'm guessing you want pineapple out front and the combined bakery note on the backside.
Sugarloaf at 4% and CAP Golden at 2% would put the overall pineapple profile out front. In my opinion, and for how I've used it, sugarloaf is a strong pineapple flavor.
I would leave TPA Graham Cracker (Clear) at 1%. It is not a strong flavor. Leaving it at 1% would still contribute a light graham note. Going to 0.5% would mostly mask out the graham flavor.
Reduce FA Cookie to 0.5% - 0.75% - - - as that is what you said has taken over.
Personally, and with the other flavors in your recipe, I would do FA Cookie at 0.5%. That leaves you 'space' should you decide more is needed in the mix. FA Cookie is, by far, much more highly concentrated versus TPA Graham Cracker (Clear). From looking at your recipe, it looks like you do want a graham note.
I went out and helped one of our drivers unload his truck. He walked by me and jokingly said " why don't you come out and help an old man". I surprised him and went out and helped until it was finished. I'm going to feel that later.
Thank you very,very much. I do want the pineapple out front, but don't want it to dominate, any suggestions on the pineapple percents? Again I thank you for your time.

You're very welcome.
If it was me, I would start VTA Sugarloaf Pineapple at 2.5% and CAP Golden Pineapple at 2%. I think those percentages, with your other flavors, and reducing FA Cookie will give you a noticeable pineapple. How visible of a pineapple? I don't know.
You would still be boosting the sugarloaf slightly (versus 4%). That way if it's not enough you can easily add more (at like 0.5% increments, to taste).
With those percentages you will get more of what VTA Sugarloaf Pineapple has to offer with CAP GP taking on a supporting role. Both will contribute to the overall pineapple profile.
IMHO, sugarloaf is one of the more accurate and best tasting pineapples around.
Alternatively, you could mix 30mls of all the other flavors, split that into 3 10ml testers and then add the pineapples in different percents. Start low with the pineapples in each of the 3 10ml, add more as needed. That's how I would go about finding what works best for the pineapples.
