    All this talk of pineapple is making me want to dig into my pineapple flavors to mix something. I think I have one or two that I never got around to trying.

    I got another pod delivered today for review. Between the disposable and the new pod it’s going to be a boring test period before the review.

    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.
    I'm going to try your suggestions and let you know how it turned out in about a month, thanks. Trying 3-10 ml testers is a great idea, something I never would have thought of.

    This is a mix my youngest daughter and I did. She took the lead. I merely added suggestions here and there. It took us a few iterations to get this where both were pleased.

    KLT's Chocolate cream filled Cookie

    WF Chocolate Frosting 1.5%
    VTA Chocolate Base (Clear) 0.8%
    WF Marshmallow (Gooey) 1%
    WF Vanilla Cream Extra 0.75%
    SSA Soft Waffle 1.3%
    CAP Wafer Crunch 0.7%

    Suggested steep time 3-4 weeks.

    The two chocolates work very well together. Taste-wise they lean towards something like, or similar to, a milk chocolate... without being a milk chocolate.

    Marshmallow gooey and Vanilla Cream Extra combined make a fine cream profile.

    SSA Soft Waffle makes for a pleasant soft cookie inside. CAP Wafer Crunch does well as the baked crisp cookie outside. Together they create a tasty cookie base unlike any cookie flavor I've experienced.

    It's a nicely balanced mix. The chocolate combo is up front but not in your face, the cream profile is nicely tucked in and the cookie base makes itself known on the exhale.

    @Zazie can you please add this to your blog? TIA

    Okay, it's nearly 10:30pm and I've been MIA all day. I'm in College Station after mom and I drove the RV most of the day. Mom drives it slowly and got upset at me when I was going the speed limit of 75. We get here and the cabin batteries are dead. Most everything will run on AC while plugged in, but we had to put jumper cables from dd's car to get the slide out. We are going to have to buy a couple of marine batteries on Monday. To top it off, the air conditioner is working poorly. Fortunately, a cold front has come through and it's a lot cooler and it's raining. It's supposed to clear up in the am and be fine football weather for the game. I haven't had any nicotine since 6am today and am a bit grouchy.

    Good morning random folks :) Have you any plans today?
    Headed to the bakery to get some goodies and then casually get some stuff done around the house. One of my first days off in like a month I don't want to press myself too much.

    Morning, mixers.

    If the rain backs off, may see how many trees came down last night. One at least, as the storm did get here, and brought with it some heavy wind for a while. Heard it hit the ground, and didn't sound like anything else...

    Close to 2" now. Hope it's snow higher up!

    Good morning. It rained most of yesterday and I let the dog out this morning and it was half way between snow and rain. There won’t be any yard work going on today. It’s supposed to stop sometime this morning.
