Random DIY mixing and More

[Sugar_and_Spice]

My solution for keeping track of what's in a tank is by putting them on different mods (like Provari, Pico, JAC). Usually, one has a vanilla/custard/pudding, one has a fruit, and one has whatever else appeals to me at the moment as an alternative (ginger, whiskey, new test flavors etc). Change a mod, change flavor. Sometimes I have more setups in rotation, fortunately I have some mods in multiple colors too.

Used to be able to do that until I started making all these mixes and then bringing some of my stash items out to use so I could test/vape new flavor mixes. Mine has just gotten a wee bit out of control hence the stickies. LOL

You have a much better memory than I.

Me too . I just sniff and guess

 

[NolaMel]

It was easier when I just vaped fruits. Two mixed together just turned into fruit punch . I need to try the one type mod for a certain flavor profile. Maybe I could muster up the brain space for that.

I used to have a few extra filled tanks and I did make a list by drip tip color and kind of tank.Trouble is I never kept the list up when I changed the flavors in some tanks...........

You have sadly mistaken me for someone vaguely organized . I used to try and put each bottle after filling on a piece of paper on top of the name of the mod. That didn’t last long. I may try and designate a mod to a flavor profile ( fruits, cheesecakes, florals etc) and pick a dt color to help remind me. I haven’t had any atrocious mis-mixes (yet), so the sniff test hasn’t been a total failure. Although, if I mix , say, toffee ice cream with a half tank of jasmine/cucumber... I’ll let y’all know. You can revoke my mixing license then

Apartment! Rented! Moving this weekend! (Fortunately it's a "soft" move, I will be back on weekends but this one will not be fun. I wouldn't even be on here except a) have to take my meds and b) I don't want to wake the husband. I mean, worst case I get up there with an air mattress, meds for the week and I buy food Monday night or something. I don't care.

Total dive, but roaches (which I did not see but you know, you DON'T, I don't even care. This was the kind of week that ages you permanently. Which totally is not great, but I'm just trying not to think about ANYTHING until I take my meds wake up and the husband gets up and then I will PANIC but in no way comparable to how I was panicking BEFORE.

I was literally getting up at 4:45 a.m. every day, gazing into space as I swilled coffee, and praying non stop during the drives.

This was the kind of week that ages you-- permanently. Glad I did a bunch of mixing things are going to be super pared down for a while here. It's been hard to change wicks when I get home, every moment when I arrive has been Oh My What is Next for tomorrow.

Snus, working beautifully.

I'm so glad!

Good Sunday Morning everyone! What's on tap today?

I'm going to mix a couple of recipes:

Rosemary Lemon Cookie
Drunken Coconut Cream Pie (ABC is involved in this one )
Bourbon Glazed Pecans by xGRANITEx on Reddit

I would also like to mix up something with VTA Red Dates but I need to work up a recipe. Maybe a date square vape?

 

[FranC]

Tomorrow,I try the Mascarpone Cheese with fingers crossed.

Thank you, Not sure I can butcher that but I'll try.

I'm not sure what the point of 0.20% Kentucky Bourbon is in this recipe. At that small amount I doubt it will make much of an impression against 0.75% FLV Bourbon. But, this is exactly as the recipe is written so I'm making a 10ml bottle to try it out. I'm pretty sure I'll be making some adjustments for my final version.

I like the FLV Bourbon. The Kentucky is good but it's sweet. The recipe at least reminds that I need to get back to my boozy stuff..

Tested all my newly mixed faves yesterday (I have no idea how I had the time) and they're okay a few could do with more steeping but eh gonna bring with me.

I wanted to sleep in but alarm kept going off and like, I couldn't remove it only snooze it so I just turned it off and got up since I was having terrorist dreams (being captured by). Probably for the best, I got less done than I hoped (new lady garrulous also discussed and had me sign WAY too many "I will not import bedbugs" papers for my taste. It's federally subsidized housing so I have these appliances: Fridge (from the 90s, maybe) tiny stove (from the 60s) And I had to pretty much photograph the entire place it was so, ah, well messed up. I don't care other than the door doesn't latch (I did put in a work order for that) but I don't want to get dinged. It happens.

Things I want to buy: a new life, LOL. Things I AM buying: toaster, garbage can, cleaning supplies, dishrack and toilet paper, groceries. Really want to buy a tiny microwave but not sure I can justify it. Maybe aftet the first week, IDK.

Got about a third of the stuff I "need" up there, (possibly) but some is easy and will come back and forth. Mods batteriees, etc., all ready to go.

But, some of it is easy and will just live in the "back and forth" suitcase, but I SURE hope I don't have to like, stay up until midnight getting situated. This will be drive day SEVEN in a row, but hopefully after this it gets easier.

I met a vaper in one of those runaround wheelchairs she is my downstairs neighbor. LOL. She said, ominously, "Sometimes I am loud. Just let me know. I play movies really loud."

I have no idea what "Really loud" means to her, but it may mean earplugs for me.

Update for the day. Hope your mixes are bright and not bitter (unless you want.)

Yeah, that might precipitate license revocation!

I just keep my log on a 3x5 card with the bottles that are in service. Empty tank? Well, I'm going for the bottles in service, look it up on the card which is right there. Others track via computer, but that's some extra steps for a simple task

And I had to pretty much photograph the entire place it

VERY smart! Good practice for any renter, photos before moving in, and a similar set when moving out.

I might get out one or two of the sft that I mixed last week. I’m still liking the horchata smooth and have been meaning to try the cap horchata to see if I like it as well.

Trying my version of Strawberry Cheesecake Crumble. Going to name it Strawberry Cheez Crumble. Need a little vaping time for a verdict.

If you really hate the place at least you're close enough to look at others without the big travel time.

The crumble is very tasty. Trying Chocolate Cream Cookie now and will post recipes later.
