    Not quite what I expected. The first couple hits I didn't like it. Thought it actually was pretty awful.Stuck with it a bit and it got better.At my second small tankful I'm starting to get the tangy,cheezy part of the cream. Getting some nutty from the chocolate but not of lot of chocolate taste. Guess I should have done an sft on the chocolate.

    When I first started diy, it would take a couple of months for chocolate to taste like chocolate. Since then, I think the flavor makers(at least here in the US) must have re-worked their formulas because it now doesn't take forever and a day. So I am wondering since Hangsen is overseas, if it will take a lot longer to even taste the chocolate?

    I think I will pick something else for the test. Got any suggestions?

    :)

    You know, I was like others, afraid for some reason to try TC. Guess I thought it was way too complicated and didn't think I could figure it out....could not be further from the truth. The other thing that I realized is you do not have to do high temps at all to use it. ALL TC does is make sure the temp does not go over where you have it set at. Period. No secret formulas. And no more burnt hits(unless you run out of juice, lol) I learned how to set my pico and it could not have been easier. If you ever want to venture out into the unknown(lol) let me know and I can tell you what I know....

    :)

    Thanks for the offer! :thumb:

    Haven't had a burnt hit in, literally, years :) I have gotten close a couple times, but rayon lets you know, and doesn't suffer like cotton does. Juice it back up, couple of clearing draws, and good to go.

    Yep, high temp not needed - I'm just too lazy, and enjoy the vape I get, to play around with it. Been building the same way so long, I think I could wind my coil with my eyes closed. (Although mounting it to the deck does require seeing :lol:) Someday, when I'm bored ;) I do have small spools of Ti, SS316 and Ni, so it's just a question of building with one (or more) of those, and setting up a mod or three.

    I just might. Have to look. brb


    Yep I have it. now where did I put it. What % do you recommend?

    :)
    Well, I will start it @ 3% and take it from there. Unless someone like @ceeceeisme comes along with another suggestion. LOL

    I find 3% a bit weak for WF Chocolate Chunks. 4% would be my recommendation.

    You could always split the difference and go for 3.5% :D

    Any other opinions on the OOO Vanilla Custard Cheesecake? The mixing recommendations I've found put the mixing percentage at 1-3%. Hitt is mixing his at 6% but I think I'm going to try 3%. Thoughts?

    One place I read that 1.5% was good and another place I read said 7%. I like strong flavors so I went with 6.
