Random DIY mixing and More

argh! 1008 pages?

TLDR

anyone got a chocolate recipe? Something like brownies or Sweet choco bar? I think I've tried already 5 to 6 chocolate flavors from Capella and TFA. All of them yucky as stand alone. What should I mix them with to taste like decent chocolate?

I tried Double Chocolate from TFA and Capella, also boston cream, hot chocolate, choco glazed doughnut and some other choco variants. Still not like what I expect. I'm looking for sweet tooth choco, like M&M or toblerone kinda taste. Anyone?

They like the crisp peppermint. The one that I mix for them is peppermint @20% tfa and ws23 @ 3%. Strong but that's how they like it.

LOL - never mind my suggestion. It wouldn't come close.

You could try the VTA Chocolate Mousse.

Can I have your recipe?

I just reread, try more mixed mint. Maybe a couple 5 ml tester bottles...upping the mixed mint by 1.5%%. Mint can be potent, but it sounds like they like it at light ya mouth on fire lol

And 3% ws23 should hurt. I couldnt do 3 in koolada and ws23 is way stronger than that

Is it the tobacco or creamy part that is a PITA?

I got the tobacco where I want it. Getting the creamy note right is being a pita. I would have called it a day if it was for someone else but this is for me. One is to sweet, one to thin. Its not easy to get just right

This is one of Bill's recipes so it's high flavoring but might be worth a shot even if you have to decrease the percentages.

Milk chocolate by Bill

TFA double chocolate 3%
TFA milk chocolate 7%
TFA vanilla swirl 6%
TFA Bavarian cream 4%
TFA Cotton candy(EM) 6%
TFA butter 2%

The preceding mint talk alone is enough to make me sneeze.

I mixed eleven sfts today and upped the flavors in the four I mixed last week to where they should've been in the first place. Storing all these little bottles is a bugger.

It went so much more smoothly today! I was pleased.

I get spark plugs at work in what's called a shop pack. It's a Styrofoam carton with 24 spark plugs. Anyway, the 10ml bottles are a little tight but will fit in one of these which keeps me from knocking them over when I get in my cabinet.

When your little 8mL bottles get there...if you'll let me know their diameter and also what it is for the bottles you're using already, I just may have something that would help you.

My bcf order arrived along with an order from vape wild. Thanks to FranC for showing me how to get free shipping. They sent the 4 big bottles of liquid for $1 and threw in an extra big bottle and two little ones. I also added a box of plex coils for my zenith.

Glad that deal was still good.

Vapewild is my favorite eliquid vendor. I have been trying to clone their Straight Outta Donuts forever and haven't gotten close. They are super nice and always throw in lots of freebies.

Well, that's most thoughtful and tantalizing, @JCinFLA. Thank you!

The 10ml bottles I'm using now are a hair less than 2.43 centimeters (assuming I measured correctly). When my 8ml bottles arrive, I'll figure out what they are, too.

I just ordered a Berserker-styled RDA from FastTech, along with other bits and bobs. I am most curious to see how I manage with this sucker. Hope we get along well.

You can be really lazy with RDAs for flavour testing. I use a hadaly clone - and it has had the same twisted wire coil in it, that I installed when I first I got it.

With wicking (thanks to a @Letitia tip, I stuff it in, cut the tails to about 3mm either side of the coil, and flavour test away.

After each test, I pull the wick, rinse out the RDA, rewick and repeat - piece of cake.

So once you have the coil installed (and we will all help you), the rest is easy.


As long as it doesn't drive you too berserk

 

[Zazie]

You just shake as much water out of the RDA as you can? I.e., it doesn't have to be bone dry?

Reasonably dry.
