    I was just looking in the blog and I had no idea SMT did a second pudding base. I didn’t care for his choice of flavors on #1 but his #2 is looking good. I may mix that sometime.

    I haven't done much mixing at all lately. I might try that #2 base.

    Good afternoon folks
    I shake the mixes I mixed last week, the goal for the day is to vape up the Berserker and get some other Stixx mix in it. I still have a lot to taste.
    I have a bit of a desire to build my own mod this fall, cheaper to buy a finished mod, but, sooner or later I have to try it out ...

    I keep a couple of dna boards on hand in case one goes bad. Years ago I would build simple boxes but after working with electrical and electronics all day I've found that I have little desire to do it on my off time. If you do build something then please share some pics.


    Looking forward to reading that later after work.

    IDK , I like my pudding base for 3 reasons.
    1. It’s a simple 2 flavors.
    2. There’s nothing in it but pudding and pudding base.
    3. I like it.

    Is your base in the blog? I can't remember if I copied it or not.

    There’s no question about it. Having base mixes makes for easy mixing and less steeping. Not counting cheesecakes, my fav base is my yummy ice cream, next in line is SMT’s Croissant base and then my pudding base. Though I have no base I really enjoy the Yoghurt drinks also.

    120ml of SMT’s Croissant Base tucked away to steep. I put all my cases away. Now I think I forgot the pudding base so I may mix a pudding.

    Has anyone heard from SMT? Last report had him out in a canoe squonking with some new lady friend...

    The lady friend isn’t new at all. Word is her internet is super slow. I expect him to pop in one of these days……maybe. He’s taking an extended stay with the girlfriend this time and even talked about selling his house at one point. Soooooo who knows.

    Lucky him, I have not been back to the Bahamas since my ex and I divorced. She was Bahamian. They have a drink they call Sky Juice and it's divine.
    • 2 oz. Pale Rum
    • 1 oz. Sweetened Condensed Milk
    • 6 oz. Coconut Water
    Some make it with gin, but I always preferred it with rum. Nice and refreshing on a hot day.




    Hmmm...think I'll mix that up to vape !

    Tomorrow I’ll have to see if I have anything ready to try.

    I’ve got one more one shot left to try and Charlie’s strawberry custard should be ready soon.

    I also wicked my spare Dvarw base. No sense in having a spare if it’s not ready to go.

    Fran, are you wicking with cotton or rayon? I've tried 3 times now with rayon, end up with juice all over. I'm doing something wrong! I don't have any cotton, I'll order some and see if it makes a difference.

    I think one reason I want to mix it is to try custard premium. I found another recipe that I think I will mix that gets a lot of good reviews.

    I’m wicking with cotton. I have used rayon but not lately. The difference is if you are wicking with cotton you should be able to move your wick back and forth in the coil. Not really loose but cotton will swell when it gets wet. Rayon, on the other hand does not swell and you have to get as much as you can in the coil or it will leak.

    I wick the Dvarw with rayon, using the Exocet method. I haven't had a leak yet.

    If I recall correctly, @ShowMeTwice said that when he wicks the Dvarw Exocet style with rayon, he doesn't thin the tails. I, however, cut away about half, mullet style, which still leaves enough to fill the juice hole (official terminology) completely.
