I had a friend offer me his Genny at a vape meet. After one harsh horrible hit he said, "Oh, you need to tip it just like this to keep it wet". That was that.
Yes, well the Genny tilt was part of the deal. It seems all of these tanks require some quirk to work well...Some are more acceptable trade offs than others, IMO...

Well I was just lazy and didn't do it. I'll get up early before work tomorrow and mix some pixie recipes. They are fast and simple, only needs a 3 day steep. Never would have thought a year ago I would be enjoying any candy juices.
Do you like pear or dragon fruit juices? Have a couple good recipes for them.

I mixed yesterday - ALL afternoon! I am glad it is done for a while anyway. Have you used RF flavors before or is this your first time? I need a handful but am a bit worried about going with a brand I haven't used.

I wasn't overly impressed with Real Flavors but many like them.

Thank you. I need Blackberry, Blueberry Wild, and Raspberry Sweet. I checked the rating on the RF Blackberry and it had one star. I think I will pass. Shame since it is such a great deal. :(

I thought one of my many pineapples was RF, but I was wrong (just checked my stash). So nope, haven't tried them yet. Next full on mixing session shouldn't be too bad. Finally have some recipes worth mixing 60ml of. If they age well I can mix 240ml. Going to try the scale for the larger batches. The testers I mix to the 15ml bottle, only measure flavors, nic, and dw. Not precise but works well and doesn't feel like a chore. I just have no where convenient to mix.

    #1 favs are Roasted Pecan and Hazelnut and Cream. The Hazelnut is very good solo. I like the Chocolate Chunks.I like the Tahitian Vanilla too.I bought some of the other nut flavors and the White Chocolate Peppermint but haven't mixed with them yet.

    I can only mix in my tiny kitchen. I have to clear off my entire little counter to do it, so that is one reason why I mix up more than a week supply at once. I've been using the scale. It gives me more consistent results.

    The White Choc Peppermint sounds interesting. I don't know if the nut flavors sound like something I'd like to try...

    I really don't mix anything less than 30ml, most I do at least 60ml, and two I mix 240mls. I always use the scale. It is just easier for me that way. I should probably mix three of the juices I make a liter at a time, but need some liter bottles. It is always something.

    I tend to make 30 ml batches, but I'm mixing 4 recipes. I haven't mixed any 240 ml batches of anything, even my ADV :)

    Stone,give the Hazelnut and Cream a try. It really is excellent solo.
    I mostly do fruit and mint, so the nut flavors are out of my wheelhouse. I remember reading your posts about the Hazelnut and Cream in DIY now... I do like Nutella, so there's that...:D

    I like the WF hazelnut & cream as well. The pistachio & cream is good, needs a bit of help. The angel cake is good, the meringue comes thru nicely. The white fudge is very good and has a lovely mouth feel. The pixie stick candy is great, spot on pixie stick, wonderful with most any fruit. Haven't tried tha almond cookie yet. Of course want dive into the citrus flavors next.

    Be adventurous and try it. I'm pretty sure you will like it even though it's not your usual

    Hear good things about the Alpine.
    I really like my Alpine, it is my current favorite RTA and I keep it on my driving mod. It is basicly a rebuildable version of the Revvo. The only thing that really bothers me about it, I can’t use my own 810 tips and the plastic factory one feels really cheap.
