    Just thought I'd share that with you. I don't have any minis so I grabbed a couple.
    I think you will like them. I have 2 of the Rose Gold.

    Thanks for sharing. I may grab a couple more for that price.

    Those recipes using butterscotch ripple sound so good! I just need to pick up some butterscotch ripple. o_O

    This weekend I tackle putting all my flavors in elr and organizing everything DIY. I'm excited.:thumbs:

    I measure by volume but I typically don't do small batches. I guess the only way to do small batches is by weight, unless you use tiny syringes. Makes sense. I just ordered some 8 gauge needles for my max vg recipes. They are coming from China so I don't have them yet. :blink: Makes me a little nervous so I'm using Lysol and double bagging them, gloves, and a dose of sunshine for a few days to try to kill any virus when I get them. Now I won't have to wrangle my vg through a 14 gauge needle any longer. Like squishing an elephant through a pin hole.

    Bronze! I'm going to start calling you Pawpaw. Good for you for making your own NETS. That's big! I'm not there yet...maybe one day I'll give it a go but not right now.

    My brain is so fried from a full plate you just don't know. Let me tell you what I did yesterday. Background first...I've had appointments, my son had appointments, my Dad too, paperwork I filled out for my Dad, taxes debacle, work, home, son's school, vape hoarding, single Mom....on and on and on...so I'm a little frazzled lately. I looked at the clock at work yesterday and saw 4 o'clock so I left work. I get home and realize I left at 3 and not 4. :lol: So I got here an hour earlier today to make up for it. I didn't have to cause I'm salaried but still...ethically I had to make that time up (for me). Everybody is having fun with my possible early onset brain issues. :?: It's not funny. I mean it's hilarious but I've been doing really stupid things lately. I need an extended vacation for sure. Just.too.much.for.one.person.

    I think you can chalk those things up to being over tired.:wub:

    Somewhere between here and there
    Things are bound to calm down sooner or later. I wish I could make the mistake of leaving work early. I'm salary + commission but with a small company it would be pretty obvious if I left early.

    How long of a wait? Really curious on those.

    Nevermind. I see April.
    Maceration times range from 6 - 12 weeks. 8 weeks seems to be the median so that's what I'm going with.

    Yeah, you mix those 100+ml bottles and volume works fine for that.

    Pop is making a wide variety of NETs...many that are flavored. He likes vaping a lot of different ones to see if he can come up with a few winners. I'm doing it a little differently. I'm focusing on chocolate vapes. Out of the five chocolates I'm making I'm hoping to come up with one good one. :) I threw in one fire cured just for the heck of it so I guess I branched out a little. I've been somewhat concerned about Stixx Mixx's viability going forward. I asked Ty directly what his plans were post-Deeming. He said he's a flavor shop and has no intentions of shutting down. And if his website is forced out there is always email. :) Ty's extracts are pretty inexpensive so there's no reason for me to make my own unless I have a specific need as in this case.

    You and Brett may have to set up shop.

    Ha! I don't think it's much of a business But making NETs really is no big deal. It's a very simple process. And by making my own NETs it allows me the option of being 100% free of Deeming threats if it comes down to that.

    If this was my own house I might give it a shot. I will just stock up on Stixx as well as I can.

    Good morning everyone. It's a beautiful morning here in NW Arkansas. As a lifelong Floridian I started to think this day would never come. Introductions were done at 19 degrees.... It's been up and down, but today it's supposed to get up to the mid 50's. My body is already adjusting to it.
