I know there was mention of tfa horchata in the past. Anyone have a starting percentage and anything good to mix with it? This will be my first time trying horchata. I also bought Cap but haven’t tried it.
SFT at 5%. It takes a steep. Creams, light fruit like peaches
My bad, I just read the TFA part. Take it to 10%

Dude I can tell you what NOT to do with it. I thought it was that Mexican spice that gets mixed in with fruit and like such. So that is not what it is, and I mixed it with like a bunch of fruits like peach and mango and whatnot.

Although, who knows, it might be delicious although I am doubtful, because I have been sick and I don't want to throw up on top of it.

So you know what it is, all I can say is: good job! You read the flavor description and that it step one that I neglected to do at ANY point with this flavor.

But I will let you all know how it turns out. I could imagine a mix of milk cinnamon and fruits to be DELICIOUS but I have a vivid imagination, so that won't mean it IS like that at all.

If it is AWESOME I am going to sell the recipe to a flavoring company, that's how unlikely I think it will be. I think I was in a hurry sometime ordering flavors but I have Learned my Lesson which I plan to take the "final exam on" when I finally try it.

    Somewhere between here and there
    The OOO cheesecake and raspberry mix is improving with time in the tank. I'm now getting a tangy bite to it and sometimes can taste it on my lip afterwards. I might try to add a little bit of a sweet flavor to it eventually.

    For those of you that like tobacco blends this one is tasty

    Tobacco Rum
    Flv Raisin Rum 1%
    TFA Vanilla Bourbon 2%
    HA Flue Cured 4%

    Woo hoo, I have all of these flavors! Into the Word document notes it goes... :D

    Did you get the newer TFA Pumpkin flavor? I found it on NR. It has no spice in it.

    YES, yes, yes! :w00t: This is what I've been hoping for: A pumpkin without spice, so I can tone down all of the obnoxiously overly-spiced pumpkins out there. If I can ever find a plain nutmeg flavor, I hope to mix a spice 'stone' using only ginger, cinnamon, & nutmeg (that's it)... This is my trinity of the perfect pumpkin spice! I despise clove, in a very passionate way, yet it seems to always be a dominant flavor in anything 'spice' to me, so I have vowed to perfect a pumpkin spice to rival my own pumpkin pie. :sneaky: Onto the wish list it goes! :headbang:

    Haven't really mixed anything lately, as I recently discovered that Shingles IS everything they say it is. It was freakin' awful! :cry: I only upped the flavor percentage on my PUR Sweet Tobacco & Butterscotch Ripple SFTs (they were pitifully weak to me at lower percentages). As I simply added a bit more flavor to these, I approximate that I've bumped the ST to 10% & BSR to about 5%. The combo of the 2 that I mixed together (using my initial percentages) got bumped up by a few drops of about 2:1 ratio to get an idea if the balance is good to me. Due to this, I'm planning on mixing 60/40 going forward, instead of 50/50, because I'm getting a bit more throat hit from the PG than I usually like. With more experience, I'll sort out what blend I prefer later (my retail juices are all over the map on VG/PG ratios anyway). I'm much too new to this to start throwing away things that I could probably learn more by trying to tweak them a little, than starting from scratch. We shall see and I'm in no rush (still overloaded with retail juices).

    I did mix up OSDIYS's Blue Note at 10% (ahh, what the Hell, I have unflavored ready to dilute, if need be ;)), so as not to get too PG-heavy (if I find I need even more flavor). I also got to use my new Badger mini paint mixer and... OMG... GAME CHANGER! :hubba:

    @Letitia , Amazon never occurred to me, LOL (OOS, though :()!

    Having read nothing about Fairies Finest, does anyone have experience with these? Are any of them NO-NOs for vaping?
    OOO is a good company and I see Faeries Finest mentioned on ELR. I'll go take a look at the flavor list for you. The flavor list alone is worth visiting the site for, good info in one place. ATF and Reddit flavor notes are great too.

    @DebbieNY Did a bit of searching, very few flavor notes but found a few recipes. OOO, FF, and RF(SC) are all safe and all used at very low percentages, 0.13-0.25% range for usage. You could also buy eggnog flavor to get a nutmeg note into a mix.

    I haven’t read any reviews yet but have flv apple cranberry on my wishlist.
    I would take it off the wishlist. Its pretty harsh even at 1%. I could never come up with a way to use it. I really thought it would be a nice red apple with FLV's cranberry (which is good), wrong. The cranberry is harsh and a tad floral.

    Well I do have plans for tomorrow.Hubs will be out for awhile in the morning and I have a couple cookie recipes to mix. A Chocolate Cream Cookie and a Strawberry Cookie. Think I'll cool it on the cookies til after I try those. Maybe I can also try the cornbread tester.
