I really liked my second mix at first vape when I was getting the drops I put in the coil. It’s a raspberry mix and needs more raspberry flavor so I will remix,

My new Z80 came with a Zenith II tank. The color I wanted was only available as a kit. Tried to take a pic but couldn't make it work. The mod has rose gold metal with pale pink leather and a matching rose gold tank with a transparent pink drip tip. Sounds odd but I like it.

I searched ECF and found a 2 year old review by @hittman of the identical kit. Great review with a bunch of useful details. Thanks for doing that Hitt.

Apart from a BB this is the first new tank I've had for many years. My first top fill tank. It's drop in coils only. If it's good I might get a few more and stock up on coil heads. The only drop in tanks I have now are OG Nautilus with a decent sized bag of coils. Not my favorite tanks and I don't use them, just keep them in case I can't make coils some day.

Any suggestions on where to buy Zenith coils. I want to try the higher resistance coils and set the tank up for my usual MTL vaping, the coils that came with it were low resistance.

I just ordered a box of Zenith 1.2 coils from Vapesourcing. For some reason I didn't get charged the 15% Indiana ripoff Vape Tax or signature requirement. Hope that doesn't come back to bite me at tax time. If I like them they have $90+ free shipping. They sell the tanks and Z80 too so $90 wouldn't be hard to get to.

Then I read some stuff about Zenith coils having a lot of duds, particularly the 1.2. They were old comments though. Guess I'll find out.

I’m glad you liked the review.

I personally liked the 1.2 coils and don’t recall having any duds. I have a bunch of 1.2 and 1.6 coils I’ve been thinking about selling. I like the .3 coils better. If you decide you want more send me a pm and maybe we can work something out.

What a day it was for the kids grad. party. We had warm and sunny, chilly and cloudy, a handful of sprinkles and one little burst of wind, I guess there was something for everyone though I’m sure most liked sunny and warm. Temp is 70.

 

[FranC]

The birthday party is tomorrow and also our only 80’s day. Weather says 81 and partly cloudy for tomorrow.

On the Zenith/Zlide coils. I didn't like the 1.2 coils. The ones I bought are .8 and 1.6. I am an MTL vaper even though I prefer the .8 coils. At present, I am using up some of the 1.6.

i've been using these coils for a very long time. Mainly the .8 and 1.6. I can count any duds on one hand without using all the fingers.

I'm with you: didn't like the 1.2 and prefer the .8. It's the only drop-in I stockpiled for the day when my fingers can't handle building anymore.

I like where you're headed with that recipe.

CAP Vanilla Milk Froth I would consider bumping up to 1% - 1.5%. That would help in giving you a more fuller milky coconut profile. The Bavarian Cream will add a nice full creaminess and additional complexity.

I'm not familiar with FA Pie Crust. I have FA Graham Crust.

FA Fresh Cream, nice addition, you can go up to 2% if you desire more milkiness.
Guessing you're using FA Meringue to sweeten the overall mix? Excellent call if so!!!

Glad you could come up with an answer. I know nothing about coconut.

Do you have FA Milk? I haven’t tried the milk froth yet.

The pulls for the vanity were delivered so I installed them and I’m done with the bathroom. The wife is going to pick up a few things to decorate. Here’s a before picture after I tore out the step in front of the jet tub and a couple pictures after that were taken today.

No, thought I'd try the milk froth.
