That is out of date and I don't know if there's a newer one around.
How many of those little furry things you have now?I did a little mixing myself today. G&G tried their best to help. In a month or so I'll have to mix a boat load before the new batch of helpers are out and about.
I'm in the same boat. I love almost all things artistic. Be it music, painting, sculpture, dance, and even food. If it speaks to me, even a bit, it can make me weep. But... create something of my own? Yeah, that's not going to happen.
I am the epitome of Monday morning DIY quarterbacks. I could not conceive a recipe if my life depended on it. But, present me with a working recipe, and I can tell you I need to do (blank) to ingredient X, and (blank) to ingredient Y, in order to make it taste "better" to me.
The classic/standard(?) pairing is a 1:2, or 1:3 ratio, of Gold Ducat:Am4a. Many like Gold Ducat as a stand-alone. But, be forewarned... it is a serious coil killer. Always seek the least amount necessary to still taste good.
I've found it takes a lot of trial and error to fabricate a recipe from scratch. I've been at this DIY stuff for almost 8 years. I started experimenting with it fairly early in my vaping journey. It's just the last couple years or so that I've been coming up with my own mixes. For the first year or so I had many more fails than wins. Seems the last few months I've finally turned it the other way with more wins. Of course I have a lot of new stuff I haven't mixed with yet so I can see lots more trial and error coming up. But that's the fun of it,though frustrating at times
I don't know of anything (for tobaccos) as neat and tidy as the reddit list. But, if you are interested in tobaccos; I did find lot of useful reviews/opinions on this ECF thread:
Favorite tobacco flavoring discussion - Tobacco flavoring discussion only
For me, and understanding how tobaccos relate to vaping; my big "ah-ha" moment came when I realized tobacco vapes could only replicate "fresh/raw/unlit" tobacco. "Burning tobacco/tobacco smoke" just isn't feasible in a device that does not provide combustion.
Once I got that in my mind; I started to appreciate tobacco vapes.
I have not tried any of Flavorah's tobacco offerings; so, I will bow to @dc99's experience. For me, I like SC (Super Concentrates'), and INW (Inawera's) the best. HS (Hangsen) does a good job too; but doesn't hit that "in your face" flavor, that SC, and INW, manages to do.
Also, for me, I have found that it does matter; whether one is chasing a "ciggarette," "cigar," or "pipe" tobacco vape. I am a 3+ decade cigarette smoker, who dabbled with a pipe, and had a by-annual cigar. I love pipe tobacco vapes, am still searching for a true cigar tobacco vape, and can't stand a cigarette tobacco vape. Go figure...
Like almost all thing vaping... and DIY... it is all about personal preference.

And that, @FranC, is why you will always be an artist in my eyes; while I remain not much more than a plagiarist!I've found it takes a lot of trial and error to fabricate a recipe from scratch.

It is only through the creative inspiration of you, and other "what would this taste like?" mixers, share; that allows a blase mixer like me, to truly explore new horizons.

You have been an immense help to me and a whole .... load of other folks. For that I thank you
How many kitties does that make?
Two older cats Little Foot and Beana. June, George & Gracie, 5 babies. In other words... too many.
That would be part of the problem. June, George & Gracie all have appointments April 25 to get fixed.But they're so cute
Like I said; I'm a heck of an armchair quarterback. Most of my drivel is not much more than regurgitating what other good folks here on ECF have taught me. The remainder was mostly gleaned from my own catastrophic failures. I only hope others can learn from my mistakes.Don't sell yourself short,my friend
I do believe I had an original thought... once. But, now I can't seem to find it.
I love ECF. I am grateful for all of the experience and wisdom shared. And, most of all, I love all the participants of this thread! You all keep me motivated, inspired, and wanting to give back. Thank you; one and all!!!
It can be a pita to develop a recipe from scratch and really time consuming. I hate when people say "make me a recipe like this". I actually get most of my ideas from food. Whether it be a cookie or a yogurt or pie or whatever and just think how it would taste as a vape and go from there. Thats where good notes come into play.I'm in the same boat.

Oh no! I’m so sorryTheir good, been spoiling June with chicken. Did lose the tiny runt this morning tho.
It appears my ECX order didn't make it to the PO in time to go out in todays mail so I am saved from doing more sft's today.
Could be a blessing as it will give you time to catch up on the others. Get the notepad out
