Random DIY mixing and More

[Redbird11]

Going to do three sft's tonight and wonder if anyone can give me some pointers on starting %. I'd like them to be on the stronger side for solo mixing, even though these will probably not be solo flavors. I'll taste them better that way (hopefully lol).
Aged Bourbon Cream WF
Tahitian Vanilla Cream WF
VT Milk Fresh

The Tahitian Vanilla Cream is the only one of those I have used. If doing a SFT, I would do about 4%.

Dinner was simple. There was a rack of ribs in the freezer from a smoking session last fall. I thawed the ribs, made another small batch of sauce, and reheated them in the oven. I also had some potato salad and a jar of spicy pickles on the side. It was more than I could eat. Leftovers tomorrow. I'm going to have to make a run to Sam's and get a couple more packages of ribs now that the weather is getting warmer and I can sit outside with the smoker. I think I can find a couple of packages of Boudin in the freezer and Syndee is going to pick up the makings for some Jalapeno poppers. Now I'm making myself hungry again. lol Stay safe and well.

The bourbon cream is very bourbon. I don’t take it over 2%. I did 2% on the milk. Haven’t done much with the vanilla cream yet.

Yes. I like it. My recipe and a couple notes are in your blog. Apple Danish Thingy.

Ah yes, I remember that name.

Does anyone think it's possible to overdose on Cadbury Creme Eggs?

Asking for a friend.

Is this friend a Cards fan? Do they vape Dvarw's? And the occasional Brunhilde?

Yes. The end stage is bucket for one end, toilet for the other.

Sounds like a real mess to me. Did they survive?


I've never had a Cadbury Creme Egg.

 

[ShowMeTwice]

Ah yes, I remember that name.

There was a naming discussion with David and Red. I went with their suggestion. Little did I know I would paying naming rights for years to come.

 

[Zazie]

A bit like a blue cheddar, yes. More roquefort blue than cheddar though. It was also firmer than most blues, and had an aged feel to it. Very pungent stuff, but if you like blue cheese and especially roquefort you might like Blacksticks.

I'm sure I would. But then I've never met a blue cheese I didn't like.

Maybe.

Maybe.

Have them guzzle a couple of these. Fixes all 5 symptoms.

I don't think I've met a cheese yet that I didn't like
i remember back in high school in my home economics class I said something about loving all kinds of cheese or something to that affect....so she brought in a platter of a bunch of different cheese and was like I bet you won't like this one, or that one.... nope I liked them all
there's only been like one cheese I didn't care for but it was like made with blueberries in it or something so that doesn't really count, the cheese was fine but didn't like the combination of the fruit in it.... and yes I like munster and limburger

Well let's put it this way then . . . If I were going to purchase anymore MODs right now - it would have to be the Sceptre or Kroma-Z or even the Kroma-R . . . All 3 would also be an option to consider if the price was right . . . Just Sayin' . . .

That was finally helpful. Thanks @Uncle

I skimped on the search terms for that one. Fixed now.

I have no sense of whether the search terms in the blog are useful or not. Do they come in handy for anyone?

I use them in a different way. If I see a couple ingredients there that I don't have, it saves me from having to open up the recipe page. I can just move on to something different.

I've been meaning to tell you: Your blog is one of the best things on this site. Such a wealth of information gathered from all these great mixers. I have very rudimentary mixing skills, though I think with hardware shopping no longer such a big priority, I might get more involved in the mixing end of things.

Anyway, thanks for the blog. That was a lot of work.

They are supervised outdoors.

My children weren't taken care of that well.

Wow, what a huge compliment! Thank you. Got me blushing here.

Good night all... love you all (and all that mush) Had a few more things to post (got some pre-mades from a new local shop, got a few other things (C B D... nice, weak and really helped my 60 year old body)
Naked juice: POG (nice tropical flavors) and they had "american patriots" but only on 3mg so I tried "euro gold" that is very mild (might work great for me cause I just needed a "base" for my DIY tobacco mix anyway) It felt good to support a local shop (wish I had found them sooner... the other shop was nice but has limited vape selection. Of course, they had lot's of Smok stuff, but I was impressed with the variety of other stuff (vaporesso, kanger, and much more. They are a small store and not on the best side if town, but they have a lot of stuff crammed into a small store. Many mods (besides Smok... that's all the other place seemed to have) We don't have an actual "vape shop" here (and 100,000 pop) They are just some small place... (Hindu, Indian... doesn't matter to me) Good prices too (two 60 ml of naked juice for $30) Sometimes you have to drive across town to find the really good deals.

I'm a fan of buying local. And I accept that with the overhead costs of B&M vs online, the prices will be higher. I'll have to poke around at the couple I have nearby, since it's been a couple of years, assuming they're still there.

Not only possible but likely.

How about Fromunda?

 

[newyork13]

good morning. just rewicking my most used vapes for me and the wife.

I don't recall seeing you around these parts before @Tokeo1, so welcome. What are you vaping these days?

Me, however, there are three flavors I really want to try that I can's find stateside...

A question to all who might know. I found those flavors (FA Milk, Custard Premium and Expresso Creme) at Chefs. Royal Mail shipping. Those are strictly food flavorings. Any reason I shouldn't place my order right now? Please speak now or forever hold your peace. (@ShowMeTwice ?)
