    I got out the graham cracker custard that I mixed a couple weeks ago. It’s pretty darn good. The graham cracker is there but not overpowering. I think I might mix a bigger bottle that I can pull off of and add some strawberry or raspberry if I want.

    Today makes day nine or ten.

    What’s odd to me is that when I didn’t receive a tracking number by Day 3 I emailed them and they responded with several hours.

    Not sure what the hang up with your orders are and not answering your email.

    Not a very good 1st experience. Reminds me of last summer when everyone was ordering Picos from HealthCabin. I ordered 2 at the same time as everyone but as they were all receiving their packages mine never arrived. I tried to contact them several times and even opened up two claim tickets. The 1st one was mysteriously closed but I never received a response. I finally disputed the charges with PayPal and got my money back but I never did get those $20 Picos or a response. It was very disappointing.

    Hopefully you will receive your order shortly. Like tomorrow. You may want to place an overseas call if not. I don’t know anything about international phone charges etc though.

    Good luck.

    I don't know about the charges from a landline phone. But I was seriously thinking of calling JAC Vapour last year (about nondelivery of my mods). When I checked the Sprint cell service per minute rates to call them in Scotland though...I quickly changed my mind. Just continued emailing back and forth with them instead. ;)

    Last time I ordered from China it came through Chicago.
    @Fidola13 lives in Boston which has a port of call on the Atlantic.so she gets hers first. My stuff lands in Boston or NY and I'm just North of her so I get mine the next day. You are further out in mid country and hoping you receive yours today or tomorrow.

    Trying my FLV Mango again this morning and it seems a tad less sweet. Now if it develops more of a fruity taste it would be good. Hoping a bit more steeping will do it. I may try one or two more this morning before going to my daughters. Not looking forward to doing a bunch more sft's but it's a necessary evil. I think the next order contains the 3 one shots I got. They will be my first so I'm kinda curious on those.

    Any updates on this?

    I’ve been using a little each day. At first the berry flavor was very up front and tart but over about a week or so it’s smoothed out very well. Good berry flavor still but not as strong or tart. I think I’ll make more.

    I’m curious too. I’m wondering if you will have to mix as high as they say. I thought about trying the rhubarb custard.

    Tried JF Strawberry Harvest this morning. Mixed close to 3 weeks ago at 3%. It's pretty tasty and not too sweet. Trying INW Chocolate Cream mixed the same time at 2%.It's not sweet which is a plus.It's not the best chocolate I have but it's not bad at all. Would probably mix it with another chocolate. Going back to steep more. Second and final try will be more extensive.

    I did get an email response from chefs this morning and they asked for the ID for the paypal transaction on the order that doesn't show on my account on their site. Hopefully I'll hear something back before they leave for the day.

    Does the FE and FLV Mango taste like mangoes to you?

    Bulk Apothecary has a sitewide, today only, 16% off sale going on until Midnight. Coupon code: supply16

    I posted it in the DIY Good Deals and Sales thread, too, but didn't know if everyone checks that. Their PG & VG are both high quality, IMO, and their total price (items + S/H) is usually always lower than the other usual vendors who carry it. With this sale, they'll be an even better deal!

    Would be hard to tell you cause I've never eaten a mango. The FE is much juicier so far but seemed to be getting sweeter. Can't try it again til I get home Sunday. I've kept some in a tank to check for fading and it hasen't yet.
