Random DIY mixing and More

BTW could you share that smoothie base?

Sure, it's a recipe I pulled off the Wonder Flavors site last year. It's originally called Banana Butter Nut Smoothie, so I am just going to replace the Banana with the Island Mango just to get an idea how it mingles with other flavors.

It's a long steeper though..

The Butter Nut Smoothie part is:
Caramel Butter WF 2.4%
Caramel Rice Crispy Treats WF 1.5%
Hazelnuts and Cream WF 2%
Super Sweet CAP .5%

If using Banana Puree WF in the above I use it at 2.5%. The original recipe calls for 1.5% but the banana doesn't really come through at 1.5%.

The Butter Nut Smoothie part looks as though it would be tasty on its own. Have you tried it that way, @Skeebo?

P.S. How long is that long steep?

I've never been able to taste caramel but it does look good.

I have not tried it on it's own. The original recipe, before I upped the percentage of banana puree, was mainly smoothie in profile and I found it to be good. It's good at 3 weeks, but I just polished off a 120ml bottle in one week that was 2 months old and that was delicious.

Really liking your ic base too @FranC finally steeped long enough to try and super yum as is! I haven't tried to add anything to it yet but I now have another 30 bottle steeping and ordered more 120ml bottles from OSDIY this last order to mix up a much bigger batch.

I actually mixed a couple WF recipes but I butchered them. LOL

Makes me happy

I keep forgetting to try that ice cream base. I’m pretty sure I have a bottle in my steeping box that should be ready.

I just annoyed myself. I have different colored vape bands on Lemos so I know what flavor is in each. Got confused between purple and blue and filled the banana cream tank with coffee.

I've done that before... always when I'm in a hurry. Now I take my time. Sometimes, if I'm really in a hurry I just top off with unflavored so I don't end up with some crazy mix of flavors.
Hey... are they Lemo or Lemo2? I love my Lemo2 (haven't tried the original)

I hope you like it too.

I had to fill my 3.5ml Dvarw again today. I had emptied the bottle I was using so I picked a juice with a similar profile. It’s amazing how fast the coil changed flavors.

All three of mine have the 5ml tank. I really like them but haven’t felt motivated to order more yet. Just too much going on right now.

I have 5ml tanks coming from ft and I’m not holding my breath.

I have original Lemos and Drops. The first tank I got after Pro Tanks was a Lemo. Think I paid $50+ for it. In the end they were giving them away for $5 and I grabbed a bunch. Apart from a BB and a Woodie all I use now is Lemos and KFLs. It took a long time to really get the hang of wicking and coiling those two tanks. The only other tank I tried was Nautilus, I have bunch in the stash with lots of heads in case I can't make coils for some reason.

I finally mixed about 800mls of most of my favorites.

I need to finally do that... mix larger amounts of my favorite recipes. Keep doing small batches and keep running out. Don't think I will do 800 ml (are you serious) but maybe 100 ml.

I have a stash of KFLs, Lemo Drops and Melo 3s, ended up liking the Melo 3 with the RBA head most, such an easy rebuild plus I can always use the drop in coils. My Lemos always leaked I never could get the wicking right was still using my original nautilus tank until I bought a naulitis gt and gt mini.

I really like the Nauti GT’s. I have 1 and 2 minis.

I have three Lemo 2s... have only used one but I do actually like it very much. Old school and I mount simple round wire coils with the screws (tried doing the other way... with the coil legs going under the mounting screws... even the original coils... no way) Just use simple 26 ga 3mm ID coils I wind myself. It likes Rayon (most people says it doesn't wick well but does fine with rayon) I have so many vape chores to do this week-end but if I don't re-build that RTA I will hate myself (been putting that off for too long)
