    Good morning hitt.:) Hope that goes well.
    It went very easy. The shelves are up. Right after I finished, I heard a loud truck and something being unloaded. The city dropped off these big rolling trash bins that we have to start using. Problem is there’s nowhere right now to put it in the garage so I’m going to have to move some stuff around and try to make it fit.

    No covers on them? Can't be left out?

    Yes, they have lids but really no good spot outside and we don’t want it to look bad so we are going to work on reorganizing the garage.

    I've gotten two testers in this weekend so far,

    Prompted by Daniel's mention of FE Mango, I just threw together a mini tester for -

    Folly of Man - Gozilla! • mango, berries, coconut (plus additives/enhancers)

    Last night I whipped up -

    Romeo Yankee Fower • another RY4 type mix, all Wonder Flavours. Adapted from "Victor Romeo Charlie #DEVELOPED2BANGER" by BubbasBrewz at ELR.
    I'm glad I could give you some inspiration Mate! I may have to grab the Folly of Man recipe, that looks rather tasty and I have a few different coconut flavours that I've yet to try so it suits me very nicely!!

    Howdy, Dan :wub:

    As typical, this recipe hasn't been tasted yet, probably will need some work, might be Blechhhh, etc.

    Folly of Man - Gozilla!

    1.50% Boysenberry Raspberry (SC) (WF)
    0.50% Jelly Candy (CAP)
    0.50% Lemon (FE)
    4.00% Mango (SC) (FE)
    1.50% Pear (FA)
    0.50% Super Sweet (CAP)
    1.00% Sweet Coconut (Flavorah)
    0.50% Sweet Currant (CAP)

    Main note should be Mango - you might want to start it at 3%. That was how I originally wrote the idea, but when I mixed my mini tester (flavors are by drops, not weight) I had 4% (8 drops) in my head.

    Boysenberry Raspberry and Sweet Currant make up the berry part, the Sweet Currant was actually a Mix Time Decision - could be omitted.

    My og idea had the Flavorah Sweet Coconut at 0.5%, but, another MTD to try it at 1%.

    The rest of the flavors (flavours!) are an adaptation of the Nimbus Vapour fruit recipe additives.
    While I have a purpose in mind for each of these, any or all of them could be omitted if you don't have them or don't want them.

    Jelly Candy mainly for a bit of mouthfeel/texture, might help with smoothing things per other's notes at ELR.

    Lemon to help enhance/pop the other fruits (intention anyway). Nimbus uses FA Lemon Sicily for this, so can most likely be subbed with what you have on hand.

    Pear to add some wetness, Nimbus uses INW Cactus. I have tried Cactus in one other mix and it wasn't off-putting, but I'm still a little afraid of it.

    Super Sweet. I usually go with 0.25%, but in my mini testers one drop is roughly 0.5%, so...

    It is very mango smelling off the shake, I haven't tried a knuckle taste yet. (only tried that a couple of times so far)

    Thank you for your interest :)

    Very Nice, thanks gloop!
    I'm the same with cactus flavour, I've tried it and definitely wasn't put off by the flavour but I felt it more changed the profile of the recipe rather than adding that moisture! I'm not afraid of it though cos' I'm MangoDan :w00t:
    The FE Mango is a very very mango forward flavour, the one with the most full rounded mango Punch that I've tried. I think it would easily take over a recipe if the %% is taken too high but I haven't used it in a recipe yet myself so I'd have no idea where to start, either way your recipe looks yum:thumb:

    Yeah, 4% is high end. ELR suggests 3% when you plug it in and ATF has it at 2.81% average, 2 - 4.5 ranged.
    If you have a go at Folly, it might not hurt to start it at 2.5%.

    I might try that one with a couple changes. I’d have to leave out the coconut since I don’t like it and don’t think I have sweet currant.

    Nice :thumbs:
    Yeah, the Sweet Currant wasn't in my first draft but popped into my head while I was wrangling my flavors.
    Here are some other flavor ideas to go along with mangoes, just in case you get the urge,
