    I checked the bottle of croissant base and should be good for two mixes. Now I need to get one of my beside bureau tote boxes out and see if I have any bigger bottles.
    I didn't find any bigger bottles but I did find a couple other useful things so it was worth the look.

    Just finishing up lunch here and catching up on reading. I have a good sized bottle of the croissant base in my cabinet also. I vaped about 20ml of just the base and like it in a MTL tank. I've given some thought to adding some fruits or something so I'll be curious to hear how Fran's experiment goes.

    The base is steeped so it shouldn’t be long.

    I have my pudding base also . Recipe is in Zazie’s blog I think.
    Looks like I have a lot of bases I will be trying once I get my DIY Flavor Shack and Chefs orders. Definitely going to be mixing up your IC base, the Holy Trinity IC Base, and one of SMT's pudding bases.

    @Letitia How much cranberry jam do you normally use?
    1-1.3 works well for me Fran. For you maybe start at 0.7 just in case. I'm thinking about pairing the cranberry jam with red currant next time I mix with it to add a bit of interest. Have read a touch of pomegranate will make it pop as well.

    Good afternoon folks,
    I have vaped up a berserker tank, was Stixx Supreme, now it is rewicked and Stixx A +.
    The berserker is probably not as good as the latest atty's on the market, but it is incredibly easy to rewick.
    The other juices that are on the buffet for the evening are SMT’s pudding base, Fran’s Tiramisu Custard v1, Stixx American Virginian.

    Got a letter from the IRS today. I waited 5 months for my refund and it was exactly the amount our tax preparer calculated. The letter said I was getting another $1500. Not much explanation, just some generic blurb about recent tax laws, rulings, or regulations requiring correction of excess advance premium, whatever the bleep that means. Kind of nice. It will cover our upcoming trip to Charleston.

    Yesterday I put the pool away for the winter. Two hours on my knees cleaning and drying the liner, today I can hardly walk.

    And now, back to mixing.

    I have some of SMT's croissant base steeped. Any ideas on a croissant?

    Hmmm. I'm thinking orange. I would drop the croissant though, never heard of it but it sounds horrible. If you need more notes maybe add a touch of blueberry. Now, the trick with orange is sweetener. Don't go light on the sweetener. You should start at 8% sweetener and 3% super sweet. I just know you're going to love it.

    Any other recipes you need help with you know I'm just a click away ;)

    You forgot to add the caramel and apple.
