Random DIY mixing and More

[hittman]

It's funny you mention bubble wrap. I bought some the other day in order to wrap my bottles that I have in the freezer. I'd seen other folks suggest it, so I thought it might be a good idea. I'm not sure it it because I am clumsy, or because the bottles were frozen and kind of slick, but I found it incredibly frustrating to try to wrap the bottles. I decided to skip the bubble wrap idea for now.

I have a dedicated mini freezer for my nic and snus. I didn’t wrap any of mine but I guess if you’re going to store other stuff with it then it’s a good idea.

What are some good brands of "butter rum"?

I'm using the LA (LorAnn Flavors) version for the first time. I am totally unfamiliar with it.

That's good. I honestly don't even know what is meant by hotspots, but it seemed like something I wanted to avoid.

A hotspot would be a concentration of nic in one area of the liquid rather than evenly mixed.

I’m missing two ingredients...as always. I’m sure all of you already know this, but for those that don’t...if you click the x beside the statement “you are missing ingredients” on a recipe in elr it will highlight the missing flavors. I’m sure there are other things in elr I don’t know about. Powerful program for sure.

Sadly, I never logged my flavors into it when I started DIY. Now 8 years and hundreds of flavors later, I am not going to start

Love to hear your thoughts on it

I’ll let you know. I didn’t much care for the cookie recipe at first but it grew on me.

I use pg based nicotine.. I've read that people who use vg based nicotine run a risk of spontaneous combustion. Having watched the spontaneous combustion episode of Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack when I was 9 years old scared the crap out of me. I have nightmares of my wife having to bury a hairy leg in a tennis shoe because that is all that's left of me.

That’s funny because I read something similar. It was that pg spontaneously combusts when at low temperatures and there is a lack of air. Something about the molecules colliding when frozen creating a chain reaction which produces heat.

I’ve never noticed any hotspots. I thought I read somewhere that vg nic is supposed to stay good longer.

I have heard that too and bought my first and second load 100%vg. This time I did 50/50

I know you are joking, but spontaneous combustion is actually a serious issue. My great great great grandfather died from spontaneous combustion, and studies have shown it is genetic. So I must always be on guard against the chance I might combust.

Glad I have the PG based

I keep my nic in its own mini-freezer too.

I just went to screenshot that.

I just right clicked it (on this thread) and hit save image as.

I got the dishes done. Then I put a new coil and wick in my rta and I’m vaping Serendipity from HHV which was always my fav. I haven’t had any since summer of 2015. It’s very satisfying. Since it’s a cousin of Gandalf/Legend with a longer extraction time, I can definitely taste the similarities with the “cherry” note. Very very good.

I may regret resurrecting this since it can no longer be shipped. However, I’m only 2.5 hours away from their store. I met them once with Dusty the moderator and had lunch. Heather left me a nice note and told me to come back and we could do lunch again. They are praying for a shipping solution in the future.

This is good! I doubt I could ever replicate this with DIY. I am going to vape it sporadically so I can try though.

Memoriiessss light the CORNERS of my mindddd.....

Thinking about getting (FW) buttersotch ripple. Instead of also getting butter rum, might just get rum (want that for other recipes like pina colada)

Sorry about the great great grandfather. How do you stay on guard? I think it happens spontaneously...

You left out a great.

For some reason I have Lor Anne Butter Rum.

Tomorrow is my son’s 21st birthday. Mom is making him (us) lunch tomorrow of salmon patties and stewed potatoes and she made him his favorite spice cake. In the morning I’m going to blow up a bunch of balloons and scatter them everywhere then give him his gift/money/card. We are not having a party due to Covid. I made his favorite meals yesterday and today. That 21 years flew by! And sometimes it didn’t....

I meant that I went to take a screenshot of the email they sent me.
