    I just loaded a tank with the holy po po at 8%. I’m still breaking in the wick. So far I’m not getting a ton of the strawberry.

    I mixed the berry berry good recipe earlier. I accidentally grabbed the regular raspberry instead of sweet raspberry so I’ll see how much of a difference it makes. Of course I didn’t notice until I was putting the cap back on.

    You can't even begin to force them in either.Just too tall. I'm not thrilled with the new size.

    I looked on their site but all the show is the 15ml bottle. How tall can they make a 10ml bottle for goodness sake!!

    This makes me feel better about them. I was worried they were pricing high to hypnotize people into thinking their products are better.

    And I can't imagine wasting morels in a stir-fry!

    Aren’t their flavors supposed to be very potent as well so in theory less is needed? Or is that a different brand I’m thinking of?

    @IDJoel What kind of mixes do you use the FLV Basil in? I have it but haven't tried it or even done an sft yet. I did buy that one for a recipe I had in mind but I haven't been able to find it or think of another.
    I don't yet have any "finished" recipes using it. But, I have done some simple two flavor mixes with it. And, have found it to be an interesting addition to many fruits (pineapple, citrus, stone, and berry). It also can sub for, or pair with, mint or cucumber. I bought it for the summertime boozy vapes; but have yet to work on any of those. :rolleyes: :D
    I think @IDJoel has it? I have it, but haven’t gotten around to mixing it up. Too many more interesting flavors have distracted me :blush:
    Nope; afraid not. I have INW-Mint, and INW-Natural Mint... but no Mint Mix. The two I do have, seem to work well in the range of 0.5-1.0%.
    "Tob flavors"? Please explain.
    "Tob" = tobacco
    :)

    Fig 1%
    Orange shisha 1.5% (for orange zest) no sub
    Marzipan 0.5%
    Butter pecan 1%
    Tfa graham 3%
    Fill to top with mascarpone cc

    I was trying to copy an irl cc dessert my MIL makes. It has crushed pecans, orange zest and diced figs in the crust. Her cc has mascarpone in it.
    What do you mean by "fill to top"? Top of what?
    It will definitely be different however if that is what you like, then give it a try. BTW I used FA fresh Cream instead of Milk.
    Did you use acetyl pyrazine? I've been hesitating to get that.

    The Ella’s butterscotch shortbread that I added pear and custard to is finally fully steeped. It turned out to be a good bump up, and a way to use some tfa pear, which I find too sweet/canned fruity. I don’t like pear in a vape enough to buy any others, but it fits nicely with the butterscotch shortbread

    I recalled us discussing mints. Now I have no idea who it was :blink:. I’ll mix up a sft after vacation and see how it is. Are mints generally snv or??? If they’re snv, I’ll make a higher nic bottle to take with me for the stealth setup

    Sorry, I’m a lazy mixer. I have cc steeped and ready to use in recipes. Put in the flavors, then fill the bottle to the top with the cc (for this recipe, it’s Fran’s cc with mascarpone)

    I think the mix mint came up during the discussion about the cough drop recipe with eucalyptus. Anyway it sounded interesting enough that I added it to my wishlist and ordered it last time.

    The holy po po is just ok so far. If I mix it again then I might add some succulent strawberry. I’d like the strawberry to be a little more up front.

    Now I must ask what "cc" stands for.

    Order (much larger than planned) placed, along with one for a second organizer. I am going to be so loaded! And though I will slowly do sfts, I know I will be too excited to resist mixing small batches of a few recipes that seem like pretty sure things once I have everything in hand. Can't imagine that the results will be any more disappointing than some of the commercial juices I've tried.

    S'okay Nicotine River, I still love you. My "organizational system" consists of "ziplock bags in the refrigerator."

    To those who may ask: "And have you failed to screw on a lid properly ever and lost all or most of a flavor?"

    I say: ADHD.

    MAN I am tired all clothes done/packed etc. I gotta go through the shed next.

    I forgot how bad moving is, I can't even WAIT until the remediation part comes. OMG it SO SUCKS.

    I think you're doing great:) Be all moved in no time.

    You might as well order a dozen organizers. Just a matter of time

    I hadn't but I did now. Don't smell bad to me
    .Don't smell like rice either.The Bread Pudding smells good.
    I think it was the supreme unricepuddingness of it that got to me. Sort of like biting into a mushroom when you're expecting a hunk of meat in a mouthful of stew.
