Random DIY mixing and More

[NatashaTMT]

Okay, so I’m sampling @FranC ’s Fizzy Rum for the first time at 24 hrs. Actually, I added pineapple & coconut and labeled it Rum Tropics considering it isn’t actually fizzy. It’s quite tasty IMO! I’m enjoying it already. Wondering if it’ll get even better from here. I also subbed koolada with .1% WS-23 (1 drop per 20ml). This is my v1 with TFA Ginger Ale and not the one with VTA Creaming Soda & FLV Ginger Peach. I’ll test that one next. I really didn’t expect this to be so tasty this soon Good call FranC!

I actually want to know if TFA is better because I have the FA.

What you have is great or at least good enough if you like it. <-- That's how I mostly avoid having hundreds of flavors.

Nice! I’ll check it a few times along the way then. TY

Considering why I age chocolates the MTS may make it ready to vape sooner. Other than smoothing out the chocolate and the flavors blending I don't notice any big changes in it even when well aged.

Use it in something that's easy to change wicks.

Not finalized yet, I got sidetracked... The better half decided the grass needed mowing & the hedges needed trimming. I tried to tell her that I was an old man & needed my rest, but to no avail... In the next couple of days...

We work by whoever thinks something needs done needs to do it (asking for help is OK).
We don't talk much

Looking forward to trying it Rough on the coils eh? Thanks for the warning!

Is this @FranC ’s White Chocolate Cheesecake?

Yes, I used her recipe and added some smoked butterscotch for no better reason than it sounded good. Maybe I should have left out the white chocolate and just used the butterscotch.

My coils are well used, cleaned. They quickly turn a glossy black.
For a split second I thought I should remake them with claptons, then remembered that would really not be a good plan with the Chocolate Cream.

I think about 3-4 tanks before they need rewicked.

Interesting read! Have you by chance mixed Concrete River’s Terrorhawk? Thanks for sharing this

Yes - I think it was Terrorhawk that taught me I don't like cactus. It is a good recipe though.

It sounds like it’d be tasty but I can see white chocolate getting covered up being it’s usually milder. I have FranC’s original dialled into my ELR recipe’s but haven’t gotten to it yet. Glad I saw this before thinking about tweaking it though. Hope it steeps out and comes around to where you want it!

Well, the Ginger Peach has disappeared from the BullCity Flavors web site. Putting in an email to request that it be re-stocked. This really sux.

I’ll keep this in mind. Is it rougher on coils than other darker colored chocolates or about the same?

I thought it looked good but different. Think I’ll try it. I haven’t really mixed with cactus enough yet to know if I do or don’t like it. I loved cactus candy as a kid though. If I like the concentrate I might try to replicate.

Wow, they answered really quick.....they plan to get in back in stock soon, but did not give a date...Said they were doing some site maintenance.

So I got 1 from ecigexpress along with some fw ginger ale.

I will get the TFA ginger ale when I order from BCF

My favorite but gunkiest mix yet is:

Boston Cream pie (Capella 5%
Condensed Milk (Flavorah) 0.5%
Whipped Marshmallow (Silverline 1.5 %
Double Chocolate (Flavor Art 2%)
2 drops sucralose (in case it wasn't like, sweet enough )

It is like murder on my wicks, but I'm going to mix more the minute I run out, it's So Good.

I'm wondering how to get some to FranC for her "opinion" LOL.

[hittman]

I wonder how that would be with malted milk?

No, my first trial mix with smoked butterscotch; using white chocolate and bourbon. I was really iffy about the butterscotch until it hit four weeks. I’ve got a couple others with it steeping.

Recipe please......

Rum Tropics S&V

- by NatashaTMT

Champagne (TPA) 2%
Coconut (FA) 2%
Ginger Ale (FW) 3%
Light Rum (VTA) 2%
Pineapple (INAWERA) 2%
Sugarloaf Pineapple (VTA) 4%
Super Sweet (CAP) 0.5%
WS-23 30% 0.1%

Notes
Adapted from ECF FranC's recipe. Her recipe and comments are below:

I'm liking this. I thought with the Gingerale and Champagne it would be too sweet but I used my PEG base and it worked great. Also happy with the VT Light Rum. It is boozy.

Fizzy Rum

TFA Gingerale 3%
VT Light Rum 2%
TFA Champagne 2%
Koolada 1%


UPDATE:
I just sampled this at 24 hrs to get an idea of how long it’ll need to steep and it’s already quite tasty! We’re really enjoying it already! Wondering if it’ll get even better... We shall see=P

 

[NolaMel]

Trying a mix from last week ( my week of making recipes for some orphan flavors I’d yet to try). It’s a pear, pink guava, star fruit, lt. rum...

It’s decidedly fizzy! Like sweet champagne. I wouldn’t think it’s the lt rum??? Has anyone else used star fruit before? At the moment, it’s too sweet (pear, I’m looking at you!). Worth tweaking, if it’s good next week

 

[Myk]

I’ll keep this in mind. Is it rougher on coils than other darker colored chocolates or about the same?

Probably about the same as FA Chocolate when adjusted for flavor.

 

[NatashaTMT]

I would think this one would need at least a day or two more to steep as VTA Creaming Soda does need a bit of time to age before it develops. But still, I had to try it @Sugar_and_Spice @FranC

Of course SS is completely optional. Pineapple might seem high but it tastes perfect to me exactly as is in both v1 & v2.

UPDATE:
This is tasty, just as v1. It’s slightly different and I can’t decide which I like better. This one might take the cake with a slight edge, only because the ginger peach adds an extra layer. I can definitely taste the ginger and sometimes a hint of peach. Tasty=P

Oh, okay. So you and @hittman are talking about two different mixes. Thanks!
