Random DIY mixing and More

[Myk]

My house came down with the plague so no mixing for me lol.

Hope it's short, it's supposed to be bad.
I'd probably mix with a mask, although the majority of my masks only filter incoming not outgoing.

Guy in front of me at the dispensary where 20% of the conditions are immune compromised starts coughing and snotting (how self centered are people?), I quickly backed off and masked up, sanitizer after I got out. Friend who's house had it decided he needed to come get his wife's rings that haven't fit for 12 years. I met him in my driveway. I did the drive up window at Walgreens (worst place ever during flu season and I can't complain about sick people there, much). Somehow immune suppressed me has managed to not get it. Probably helps roommate actually got a flu shot this year since he's back to work (besides cleaning up after sick students, co-workers can't ever use their sick days for being sick, that's not fun).
I actually haven't been sick since going on immune suppressants, germ phobia and hand sanitizer by the quart is the key.

Thanks, but I kind of need to figure out a percentage for a juice with only 1 ingredient, Cap Vanilla Custard V1.

Thanks again

ELR shows a maximum of 4.2% but I'm not sure if that's in a mix or solo. I wouldn't be afraid to try it at 4-5%. If it's not strong enough then you could always add more.

This is dumb: the first juice I have a yen to mix is some tweak on a rice pudding that captures the flavors of the arroz con leche I make to eat (i.e., rice, milk, butter, orange zest, cinnamon, raisins, brown sugar, and dark rum). In other words, not the simple starter recipe with which I should begin.

I almost always do this. Never done something before? Of course! Not only choose something complicated when you first try but fiddle with it even though you don't know what you're doing.

I make myself tired.

Hey,go for it......I would.

 

[FranC]

heard a lot about Cap Vanilla Custard V1. I want to mix it as a single flavour and try it out. What would be a good percentage to try? I see 10% floating about, but just wanted to check.

Also what do you guys think would be the steep time on this.

I'd start with 3% if I was doing it solo. I'd also give it at least a week before trying.

When I mix Cap vanilla custard, as a stand alone, I use 8%. If this is your first time using it I would start at 5%, you can always add more. It needs a 4 week steep before you try it.

Good afternoon,folks I got up way to early this morning and a couple minutes online was all I got. I lost my DSL and just barely got back online. Guess the phone company had an equipment fire. I'm lucky they made fairly fast progress get things back online. So I actually got some stuff done. I got most of my fruits into the case I started. Had to double where possible. Both sides of the case are just about full. I have a lot of fruit for someone who's not a big fruit vaper I got most all of my new flavors added to the proper cases also and some that have been hanging around on my kitchen counter. Do I have all of my flavors in cases. Nope.I have some really odd ones and I have the coolants and the bigger bottles that won't fit in cases. I'll have to figure out what to do with them next. It obvious I have at least 2 cases I don't need for flavors so I started putting my tanks into a half case. Still need to work on that and figure out what else I can fit in the case slots.

I got my BCF order. I got a very unlikely (for me) flavor. It's Butter Toffee Base. I got this for 2 reasons.1. I've never been able to taste caramel in a vape so I'm hoping to taste the toffee. 2. More importantly it is said that's it's not very sweet. I got 8 flavors and don't have recipes for any of them yet except the Flapper Pie. So I will probably put these in the proper cases til I have proper recipes worked out. Think I have a recipe started for the LB Vanilla Ice Cream......maybe.

What 8 flavors did you get?

FranC's suggestion of 3% is a good starting place. You could start small ie. a 15 ml bottle and if you like it then make a bigger bottle. Btw 15 ml is equal to half an ounce. Are you using a recipe calculator? Elr is a good one. Plus if it needs more flavor just add to the existing one you have. Much easier to add then to try and take out. If you add. more be sure to keep good notes so you can duplicate it in the future. Good luck. Let us know how it goes.

I can see this working but with much trial and error. I think flavorah makes most of these flavors. Fran just fot some sweet rice. Maybe she can tell you where she got it from. For the raisin I think it is flavorah that makes a raisin rum. Sounds .like just what you are looking for. There are several cinnamons just read the descriptions and reviews to pick the right one. Cap makes good orange flavors. Milk and butter i think most makers have their own versions. Ask for opinions on which is more favoured by the mixers. Good luck.

People raved about FLV Rich Cinnamon. I have it strong stuff, you only need 3-4 drops per 30ml.

[FranC]

I mixed with spices for a short while then I just lost of taste for them altogether.

I should input some of my last orders into ELR. Haven't done that in awhile.

I have the habit of inputting my new flavors as soon as I place my order. I enjoy making up recipes before they even arrive then when I've got them in my hot little hands I'm ready to go.

I absolutely LOVE LOVE CAP v custard v1 and would start at 8-10% as a solo (id use even more for myself but then again- I LOVE it!)

It’s best imo after 3 weeks. My best custard base steeped 5-6 weeks was the Big O!!
