I have a love and something less than love relationship with peach juices. Used to love them, then got burnt out. Since I restarted mixing with peaches I can only handle 2-3 drops of a peach in a mix. Still, plenty of flavor for me.

    Same here with the burn out. Was years ago but I still can’t vape it.

    Every once in a while I'll use FA Brandy at 0.25%. At that percent it will make fruits juicier with no noticeable brandy taste.

    Same goes for FA Gin. 0.25% - 1% "makes light fruit flavors bright and summery; it adds sparkle to darker fruits and berries; it enhances all the citrus flavors" (HIC). No gin flavor at those percents.

    I prefer using those as additives versus boozy flavors.

    I was not disappointed. Work has been fairly chaotic so far this morning. I just sat down for the first time in hours. Not complaining. It's good that we are this busy.
    Sure makes the time go by better.

    Any peach/brandy recipes?

    No on the brandy, but this is one I came across a long time back, and keep mixed.

    And it might be good with a touch of brandy :)

    The young ones birthday is Saturday. He will be a whole 12. The kids are going to a water park in Mass Saturday so his cake, gifts and such will be on Sunday. Now thank goodness that’s the last birthday I buy for. For quite awhile anyway. I think next birthday is the end of May.

    @ShowMeTwice I did not like your little syrup mix at all yesterday. This morning it is showing much improvement. It is borderline too sweet but a big overall taste improvement. I still find it amazing how much some mixes change so much just sitting in a tank overnight.
    I've heard that before. Firstly it's a small quantity and for some reason they say small bottles steep faster than large bottles, so even more so I guess with a tank. Secondly it gets warmed up in the tank which also speeds up steeping. Whatever the cause it definitely happens.

    Gates has put a lot of money into carbon capture. Frankly, I’m less worried about the planet warming than I am about micro plastics in the water column and food chain. The planet is going to warm; that’s inevitable; there will be a lot of work fixing that; but, how the whatever are we going to clean up all the chemicals and plastics that are already in every living thing on this planet due to bio degradable materials?
    There's a theory that astronomers talk about, they call it the Great Silence or somesuch. With all the stars and planets in the universe why haven't we heard from the aliens? One of the possible answers is that technological civilizations don't last very long. They wipe themselves out before they can get out there and come visit us.

    Uh, because humans are quarantined from the rest of the universe? They've seen how well we get along with each other, and decided to keep us out :)

    Makes sense. All of my new mixes are only 15ml and well steeped when I start vaping. It must have more to do with going into a small tank and getting warmed up. The heat could be the most important. Possible anyway.
