Just did a little mixing this morning. I went with six recipes from my ATF "What Can I Make?" list:

3 Donuts: Simple Vanilla Powdered Donut by MrColdOne
Better Than Mothers Milk by Enyawreklaw
Butter Almond Custard by KRUCIAL
Cosmic Fog Milk and Honey Clone by Jaysilentbob (in an old CF M&H bottle!)
Morning Drip by Alvory
Raspberry Ice Cream by Tyler

Good morning in here. Not much going on. I had my 5th covid vaccine. 2nd booster with 3 series shots. Felt a little fatigue but normal. Covid is spreading like wildfire at work. As you know even n95s won't help completely with exposure. It helps but the virus can penetrate though repeated exposure in the rehab type environment. No one is dying from this type of covid where I work so far. Of course, someone is making $$from the new antivirals that are being prescribed.

I did have a unexpected terrorist attack from a hornet this past week. It decided I was too close. I ended up getting stung on the top of my head. I put ice on it ASAP and it worked. Just a little bump now.

Hope all is well in here. Stay safe and vape on. I still haven't made any diy eliquid. I plan on making 480ml next mixing session.

    Surprise visit from my youngest daughter. I finished working out and saw a message on my watch. She needed to do laundry so came early instead of tonight when we were going to dog sit for a few hours while she went out.

    I had to chuckle at your terrorist attack. I had one hit me in the back of my head quite awhile ago.

    Thank you, Fran!
    Figured I should try out a few, I've saved tons of recipes from there already.

    Going to do a V2 of my Shortbread with Strawberries & Cream mix pretty soon. The shortbread dominated the mix and the strawberries faded or were hiding. Think I got a hint of cream.
    I can definitely taste strawberry in commercial liquid so pretty sure I'm not just strawberry blind.
    Original %
    CAP Shortbread • 3.0
    SSA Clotted Cream • 1.5
    TFA Strawberry, Ripe • 3.0
    CAP Sweet Strawberry • 1.5
    steeped @ 4 weeks

    The shortbread is tasty though, could probably get by with just that if I had to.

    For me I found boosting the flavor you want to be prominent to a higher %. So maybe do a test where you turn up the TFA strawberry to 5%? if that works you can keep it as is or adjust the other flavorings to get in the target range. I know a lot of ppl say 10% or less but I have found some flavors like watermelon I can put at almost 7% alone and it still seems really weak. So to me the "10% or less for flavorings" seems kinda personal preference at best. I have some recipes at 7% and a few that are 15+ %

    I did a simple mix with pudding base and ultimate strawberry to test the strawberry. It’s good but could easily increase the strawberry from 2-3 percent. The pudding at 3 overwhelms the strawberry. I did another mix with the strawberry at 3% and added some FW sponge to it. I’m just playing around doing some simple 10ml mixes. I also did a mix with stixx stokkebye, premium cookie, vanilla cookie, and Flv cream just to see what happens.

    I have that strawberry. Not my fav. Like you said it’s weak. I don’t think it’s that great either.

    I love the Cap. Shortbread. I use it at 3% sft or in a mix,
