Random DIY mixing and More

Ah man, there are already two tornadoes in my state (not near me) and the main line of storms is several hours away. My work let us off at noon so son and I filled up my gas tank, picked up some groceries and charcoal if we lose power, and we moved the pool table and pulled my son’s truck in the garage. Long day and night ahead.

I’ve been checking in at WBRC. You had a whopper go over a while ago. Y’all stay safe, and in the basement. There’s another line heading to you from west of me. It’s angry angry looking

About how many coils would you say you can make out of a 25ft spool of that wire?

4 on a bad day
I estimate 1 per every 6” to account for the occasional oops

Very little used 60w stick is dead . I’m using a 40w I got out a few days ago and a 30 is charging at present. I guess I should dig out the rest and make sure they still live. Not sorry at all I have a new Aegis mini coming.

Guess I better check mine.

Boudin blanc is a kind of sausage. Per Wikipedia, "Cajun boudin blanc [is] made from a pork and rice mixture (much like dirty rice) in pork casings. Often includes pork liver and heart. Generally simmered or braised, although it may also be grilled." A "Boudin ball [is] a Cajun variation on boudin blanc. Instead of the filling being stuffed into pork casings, it is rolled into a ball, battered, and deep-fried."

And freaking delicious!

Also brother, what size Island Mango WF did you want? Due to their stock I bought 2 ounces.

So you're the snatcher of the last 2oz. Island Mango from my cart at BCF earlier this afternoon. For a long while it was in there, while I was still building a pretty large Cart. Then...poof! No problem...I just bit the bullet and ordered a 4oz. one instead.

An excellent description, I couldn't have said so well. Both the boudin and potato wedges are dipped in the same batter that the chicken and livers are dipped in. The big hazard with the deep-frier is how the odor of rancid oil collects in your clothing. I would come home and strip in the garage putting my clothes directly in the washing machine then I headed to the shower myself. My daughter came home the other day and surprised me with some boudin that she found in our local WinCo grocery store. We are going to the commissary this weekend and picking up some meat. It has been a long time since I've had a good steak. May have to get some ribs and do some smoking. Ribs and jalapeño poppers, yum yum.

That am be mees... Sorry JC, someone snatched the last 30ml from my cart so I had to jump up.

Hitt said it could be circuit board. I thought the other one was dead too but it’s fine. Happy cause that’s new.

30ml size of Island Mango is in stock at BCF

They must have opened a gallon jug.. right after I ordered, of course. @JCinFLA have you placed your order already? Two ounce refills may be next...

Stay safe.

Georgia has an 'enhanced risk" level 3 out of 5 on the west side (where I am) Alabama is the heart of it all. 6 tornado warnings

Oh my gosh! You must have spent thousands!

Won’t you guys be able to buy at your local vape shops? Surely your local B & Ms will stock up on various products given that they are likely to have significantly increased demands.

Hi Anthony. Yes, I will be able to buy at vape shops but would probably have to pay double what I paid for this stuff. Maybe more as the B&M's will know they no longer have to compete with online prices.

Hey guys,

I notice that some of you are stocking up on pod mods in preparation for the upcoming mail restrictions.

I stopped using pod mods as my nic salt delivery devices about 6 months ago when I realised two things:

1) China’s disposable pod devices like the Igets and Gunnpods are blowing conventional pod mods away for flavour and smoothness. Igets were literally blowing away all my pod mods. My Caliburn and Vros started to collect dust.

2) I did some experimenting by using nic salts in old Boges and other cartomizers and in Kanger protank tanks and even in these older tech devices the flavour was far superior.

The pod mods I was using were the Osmall, Caliburn and Vros. I find pod mods harsh and hot with bad flavour.

Should I reconsider my stance on pod mods and invest in some of these newer ones?

I love the Thelema Pod kit by Lost Vapes. drinks juice though, but I vape at 60watts

 

[Skeebo]

The system blew over quick here. I hope RJ is okay down there.

I’d like to get a Kroma Z out but no way. I have way too much now. When the coil in the glass pod dies I’ll put the Sensis away for a bit.

I don't know anything about MB Shape Up Pear.

TPA/TFA Pear is really good, and yes, it does add juiciness like FA Pear does. Those are my two favorite pears.


Matthew Topolski's (Charlie Noble) notes:

Pear [TPA] – Just a great all around pear. FA makes a truer pear flavor, Capella makes a sweeter pear, but TPA pear is just a wonderful, full, juicy, pear flavor. This is also my favorite pear to use to complement other fruit flavors to fill out a recipe, or to accentuate an apple note in a liquid.

Oh, good.

I plan on experimenting with the NETs to try and knock them back into the shape they took back when they were popular. I got a bottle of Cherry bomb as well and will mix it in with Legend.
That might be all it takes to get Legend back to its hey day splendour

Got mine in few days ago. Been vaping it ever since. It's definitely a strong cigar / humidor flavor - it's very faithful to cigar/cigarillo tobacco. A drop of banana chocolate helps mellow it out pretty nicely as well. My go-to NETs were more classic cigarette blends and amazingly tasty. I think it will be some time before I figure out how to recreate one of those - if ever.

They were expensive (Kind Juice) but oh so delicious and clean tasting. I would've stocked up but they basically nixed their store as soon as word dropped. Everything was out of order by mid January it seemed.

And the person after @JCinFLA had to jump up to a quart.

And the person after is sitting in front of his computer thinking, "do I really need a gallon?".

I consider getting a 30ml a large amount of one flavor. 2oz or 4oz just seems massive.
