Gracious!

I’m going to make a chocolate chip recipe then blend it with a smooth tobacco. I’ll make two blends. One will be tobacco heavy and the other choco chip heavy. From there I can mix the final blend from the two blends to see what ratio I like most.

Then it will fail and I will start over with something else. :)
When mixing like that is when too much flavoring mutes the taste of the recipe. Our taste buds reach a point that it gets too saturated and rebels. It is unique to each individual. You should only blend small amounts to start cause you can always add but subtracting is very difficult. Then should you decide to throw it down the sink you still have some to try other ratios with and you lose very little ingredients that way as opposed to pitching say a 30 ml mix.

Absolutely.
A lot of new mixers make their % really high so they taste good almost immediately,not realizing that the flavors continue their development well past the time they taste good enough for us to vape. This usually results in throwing out the bottle bc by that time it usually is a fail. Then they think they cant mix.

I can see that. I’m a NET guy so aging has been integral to my vape life.

That reminds me that somewhere I have an ice cream recipe that I bought a flavor for and never made. It’s one of many that I never went back and mixed. I really need to do that. Maybe I’ll dig through my screenshots and mix some tomorrow.

I spent a couple of hours during a baseball game transferring or deleting screen shot recipes into my recipes folder. I then deleted LOTS of recipes that I just knew I wouldn’t ever make based on number of flavors, missing too many flavors or just didn’t sound very good anymore.

Speaking of which it’s been forever since I’ve mixed but I think the steroids injections worked and I’ll be at it again soon. Maybe tomorrow. I’m just so happy I made so many 10-15 mls bottles of juice before hurting my hand. I still have a bit left but I’m needing something new.

I got cucumbers!

I do too what are you planning on using it in. I think I bought it when I read it enhanced some other flavors but I can’t remember for the life of me what they were. I’m sure a search through recipes with cucumber concentrated will help.
