Random DIY mixing and More

[englishmick]

Very quiet day. We had family over yesterday so we spent today at home eating leftovers.

Been enjoying my new KF in the BB. Very nice vape, no leaks. Still have some qualms, a regular KFL on a mod is so easy to fill and rewick compared to the BB. But it's good to have variety and I like the BB.

And my new battery charger is due to arrive tomorrow. I have a couple of xtar XP2's that still work fine, but the screen on the oldest one has faded to where I need a magnifier to read it. That happens with XP2's. The new one holds 4 batteries as well.

My brother in law and his girlfriend showed up 40 minutes early. We had a good time. Everyone besides my daughter and her boyfriend left by 8. I’m exhausted. I hope I can sleep in tomorrow.

Good morning, Mixers!

Good morning to you random folks. Have you any plans today?

 

[FranC]

Took benedryl last night cause I really needed to catch up on sleep and I did. I even remembered to plug in my charger.

Good morning. I managed to sleep in a little. No plans yet besides cleaning out the tank for the B80. I put the 555 recipe in it and can’t stand it. Just not a flavor profile I like.

Good morning. Yeah, I can't anything I dislike that much. Better get something better in the tank.

Is that the 555 Road to Perdition?

I did go find that recipe and saved it.
I have INW 555 Gold and have three recipes written up that use it. I think I did mix one of those but don't remember how it was. (if I did mix it!)
I really need to take more notes and not try to rely on my memory.

Edit: I do have it noted that I mixed the one I was thinking of but didn't write a revised version so probably did quit on that idea.

 

[FranC]

Good morning, gloop.

Good morning, gloop.

Good morning, Fran, I'm glad to hear that you got a good sleep in last night!

Not very much on my plate today.
My sister might stop by for a quick visit before work.
I think I will get to washing up some tester bottles this morning, I have around a dozen to do.

Enjoy the visit if it happens. Yup get them bottles clean and you can mix more.

Morning, mixers.

Only light rain yesterday, likely the same today. Temp too high, made it to 50...

 

[FranC]

We ending up with some light rain yesterday also. Today is just 47 and cloudy

Yes that’s the one. Many years ago I used to buy a commercial 555 from nhaler and liked it so thought I might like this one. It’s got a really fake tobacco taste to it with a fairly strong nuttiness to it. It just leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. About the only tobacco flavors I like anymore are NETS.

Thank you!

Yup get them bottles clean and you can mix more.

All cleaned up and on my "grass" drying rack.
Now it's time to empty some more!

The only tobaccos I've vaped for the last several years have been NETS.

Yes, indeed and Happy vaping.

I've also used FA Glory in a few recipes which is like a 555 I think, or somewhat related.
I wasn't sure about it at first, but it started to grow on me in one tester so I tried to focus on it a bit more in another mix which ended up kind of meh.
I still need to experiment with it more.

I might give NETs a try at some point but for now I have a lot of synthetics to play with. I even have a few more of the FE tobaccos on the way.
I also need to try my TA soon to see if I messed it up with the way that I diluted it. It didn't seem as thick as I expected from reading old TA threads here so I might have overdid it a bit. (50/50 TA/Everclear)

2 more batteries charged. One to go.
