Ok guys, I have two Eleaf iStick Pico's coming, and a Ouimier wasp nano rda. Are the iStick Pico's a good buy? They were really cheap as far as price goes.
If all of us rounded up what we collectively own, it’s probably multiples of dozens :lol: Great beater, stealth mod. I have my first one from when it first came out. Still works great, even after my abuse and tendency to loan it out.

My thoughts on steeping.

Don’t take it so seriously. There’s no magic formula. People buy commercial juice all the time and never know what day it was made or if any one ever shook it or whatever.

Make it, taste it, shake it and taste it again. I’m just in a habit now of mixing when I’m down to my last 30 mls of something. Then I make 120 of each of my three advs plus one base, which I use to try new flavors, or mix up something I’m out of.

I put the finished juices in small bottles, get my 120s cleaned and ready to mix, and have at least 30-60 mls left of each flavor to use while the new batch sits.

Usually that’s plenty of time for the ones that need to steep.

I think we give the impression that its all so much more complex than that. It’s not. Calculate, measure, and take notes with precision. Everything else is easy.
I do more or less the same. The only hard part about steeping is testing new experiments. That takes patience.
I dreamed someone cleaned my oven lol.
Now, that's an interesting dream.

I'm dozing off, and trying to conjure up the team from "Hoarders". That would be a good dream for me...:eek::)
I’d like to dream somebody cleaned out my garage, but it would be depressing to wake up and find it still a mess.

My routine:
When I get down to 6-8 flavors, no less than 60mls of each. I drag the gear out. I mix by syringe. I make 4-5 120ml bottles of any of the recipes I have copied and saved. Usually favorites. I add flavorings, PG, VG and Nic. I shake the hell out of it and put it all in a box and put it on the shelf lowest in the pantry. This box also hold my other bottles that I made 3-4 weeks ago and have about 60mls left of each. I go to this box 2-3 times a week and while i there I shake things. That is all. I shake them when I am transferring the 60mls left from before to 120ml plastic squeeze bottles. These 120ml plastic squeeze bottles are all over from the desk to the kitchen table to the night stand. When one gets emptied I wash it and toss it in the steeple box. I use labels I buy on Ebay. It is my routine and it works. The only thing I do not like is looking for flavorings. I bought a small size cabinet with 7 drawers.One for Flavorart, one for Ca, one for TFA, etc etc. I am lazy and busy and do not put things away right. Now instead of using the file cabinet I have 4 bigs bowls, on the second shelf of the pantry, like Picnic bowls, full of flavorings and I have to dig through each one to find what I want. I have started to buy 2oz and 4oz bottles of the things I use most so I can usually find those fast but looking through all those 15ml bottles with no pictures drives me crazy. At least Capella's have pics and are colored so they are easy to pick out

Good morning!

I slept 5.5 hours! Unbelievable! I started reading Michael Connelly’s Black Echo last week, picked it up last night and read about 60 pages. Slept like a log. That’s what I’ve been doing wrong, not reading! I actually slept long enough to dream for once. I dreamed someone cleaned my oven lol. I used to only have nightmares, back when I used to dream every night all night. So the oven thing is really strange.
I used to read every night while vaping before I discovered vape forums. Terrible I haven't read a book since.
I dreamed someone cleaned my oven lol.
I wish someone would clean my coils:lol:

I discovered this stuff called GABA (a natural calming agent). I swear I have pleasant dreams if I take it before bed and I'm asleep within a 1/2 hr.:thumb:
