You have a pumpkin flavor?
I have 2 pumpkins, 3 spices, and one bread. (so far...)

Up to now I've only used the FLV Pumpkin Spice.
For this recipe I'm using the TPA Pumpkin and FW Pumpkin Spice (smells great) with Cap Nut Muffin.
I might try a V2 building off of the FLV Pumpkin Bread.

I just got the FF Pumpkin recently and can't remember if I even gave it a sniff yet.

    Yup, you have a pumpkin flavor. :lol: I could do the pumpkin or the pumpkin bread but I can’t do spices.
    Never thought to get a pumpkin flavor. I’ll be interested in what you think of them.

    I'm not sure if Faeries Finest is still around though DIYVS still has stock of some flavors. I got mine there.
    If I can't really pick out the TPA Pumpkin in this mix I might have to do a SFT of it.
    I am not good at all about doing SFTs on my flavors yet. I know that I should but I'm still relying heavily on the ELR flavor notes for guidance.

    You have to take the flavor notes with a grain of salt. Everyone‘S taste is different.

    Yeah, I sort of average them out. Plus different gear will give different impressions.
    I built up my stash so quickly that it almost feels impossible to try and do them all at this point. Once I decide on a SFT method I'm thinking to start with flavors that I reach for most often.
    For discontinued, flavors that I barely use, or hard to restock ones I probably won't bother doing SFTs so that will narrow down the task somewhat.

    I’m sure it feels overwhelming right now but given time you’ll get them all,. Just need a bit of patience.

    I don’t blame you. I hate doing sft. Don’t make the same mistake I did and mix a bunch of sft at once. I’d mix 10-15 at a time with good intentions and then get burned out about half way through and ended up dumping the rest.

    Thank you for that advice, hitt!

    Yeah, I keep burying myself just with my test mixes. I am working at implementing a new process there but it will take me a while to transition. (if I persist!)

    When I decide on a SFT procedure I will try to remember not to overwhelm myself!

    I'm terrible at mixing sft's. I barely do them anymore. I much prefer a two flavor mix. One flavor I know well with a new flavor.

    Morning, mixers.

    Still brisk here, but warming. Low was only 29. We did hit a blistering 53 here yesterday :)

    They cleverly put the rain on hold until tomorrow, so the wandering gremlins won't get soaked.

    I'm hoping it's just the wick is too tight. Should find out tonight. And I did get bubbles when I sucked on it.

    Had another head scratcher this afternoon. I do my Lemos with 3.0 SS 28 coils, they generally start around .77 and move up to low 80's with use. But one always started around .72 and went up to around 75. Got ticked off with it for no particular reason so I dug out a never used Lemo and started from scratch. New tank, new coil, new mod, and it came in at .71. The only thing that wasn't new was the juice. Guess some mysteries never get solved.

    Maybe just slightly cleaner internal connections? Or a tarnished 510 pin on the mod? Or even just slightly different calibration, not a big difference...

    Ah, a tft!
    I think that I've seen that technique mentioned before, thank you for reminding me about it.
