    Trying to find something not too sweet for another tank I finally settled on the last cheesecake mix in my old stock. Pretty tasty so far.

    I have 4 chocolate mixes fairly recent but I don't wish to vape chocolate right now so I think I'm just going to bring them to my daughters.

    1% is a good place for me for INW Rhubarb. .5% would probably suit your tastes better.
    Yes, I think I'll use it as an accent, to sharpen or brighten a mix, but not to add a rhubarb flavor. I hope one (or both) of the other two will do that.

    I just made lists for 125 flavors and that isn't even half of them. No, I don't need more flavors, ever (except for the 12 I have on the way.} Jeesh
    So more for not ever..............dang rabbit hole.

    That is an excellent idea.:) I'm betting it will work well with you once you get the % right.

    Last thing I ordered on eBay I got really fast. Surprised me.

    I order printer cartridges on eBay and usually have no problems but this time I accidentally ordered it from someone other than my usual person on accident and I had to get a little mean when it hadn’t shipped by the day it was supposed to have arrived.

    Don't blame you a bit.

    I was going to start a thread about this, but know some very experienced mixers in here (unlike me) so trying in here first

    My wife wants me to mix a mixed berry methanol, she wants something with a kick, but not overpowering methanol though, I have never mixed something like this, and would like to keep it down to 4 flavors (I will have to order flavors), I know I can just search on places like ELR, but I trust advice in here, and hoping someone here has some experience with what she wants.

    I got the steps repaired at my FiL’s house and came home to try the soho sft I mixed a few weeks ago. To me it’s not a lot like ry4. It has more of a tobacco taste that I’ve never gotten from ry4.

    Forest fruit mix by flavor art sounds like what you are looking for, I mix it with cool mint by capella. I'm sure you could mix it with menthol, but I can't tell the difference.

    What kind of berries does she like?

    I think anything mixed will be fine, she just requested not to do plain strawberry as that's all she vaped for years and got burnt out on it, like to try and 2-3 different mixes, use just one methanol, but different berry mixes, I'm not even sure what would be a good methanol, she said she wants a kick but not overpowering.

    Really need to try a few for her, after over 6 years smoke free, she is smoking the odd methanol death stick, because when she is stressed, she finds that kick helps her, and she came to me asking if can mix her something, as she doesn't want to a full time smoker again.

    So no pressure on me, especially as I mostly just mix one shot flavors normally :facepalm:

    In that case, I would start with plain TFA Menthol. Forrest Fruit is an idea that will make a 2 flavor mix. A combo of TFA Blueberry Extra and FA Bilberry is very tasty.If she would enjoy an added tart kick from the fruit, most rhubarbs are good for that or SC Cranberry. For something different, a mix of WF Saskatoon Berries and raspberries should be tasty also. Blackberry and Balck Currant.WF Boysenberry/Raspberry is good. So many fruits and so many possibilities.

    Probably most are going to recommend ws23. I like a combination of menthol and koolada. That with forest fruit that someone recommended sounds good. Or maybe a combination of a couple different fruits that she likes. She must have favorites.

    I use WS-23 some times but I really don't get much of any coolant out of it.
