The Copper Creek Chit-Chat Thread

[janieT]

Congrats Bliss - awesome scores!!!!

Thanks for the info on the cartos, I will try to fill the last one I have punched up with more juice. I ordered the 2 ohms from CC (had to go check my order to make sure!).

Since I don't know who Victor is.....I'll go with the posse and agree its a cute idea

Headaches....I still get them and I use the CC mix and have some 100% VC too - doesn't change. CC does have the option to get pure VG (I believe in the drop down box).

Is there a sticky somewhere that lists what juices need to steep? If not, could we get one?

When will this cheesecake that I keep hearing about be available I want to try some I received a sample of Grogg, but have yet to try it.

After reading so much about the Provari mini, I wish I had the $$$ to buy one!!!

Hey Janie, great idea on the sticky. In general the fruits and the mint or the CDM are good to go out of the mailbox and the more complex flavors/mixes are better about 7 to 10 days in. That's only in general though... a lot of people prefer all of them steeped and conversely there are those that like all of them better fresh.

 

[janieT]

Thanks Sallie!

Should I condom fill it first or drip fill these tanks?

So where do you all get those Copper Creek boxes on your tag line? I want one!!!! I love CC

Internet is sketchy today...booooo

 

[Drottwiler]

Bliss were all proud of ya.WE knew you could do it.

 

[efirdj]

"I'm innocent!" across the top/front with "Just like Victor!" on the bottom/back!

What I like about that one, is the fact that you just said the EXACT same thing I told FV in a pm not too long ago.

 

[Drottwiler]

So I'm thinking Victor's juice should be innocently sweet,bursting with flavor and bam spicy on the finish.

You can condom fill or drip fill. I drip 5, rotate, drip 5, rotate, drip 5 etc... I don't use the taryin spin method, but I do use a syringe with 100% VG. After about 20 drops, I let it sit until the top looks dry, then drip rotate and repeat again. Sit until the top looks dry. Once it doesn't look dry after about 10 minutes or so (it should look like the top of a slushy) I fill the tank, pop on the top, blow out the center, let it sit again for about 5 minutes, do a cold vape (meaning don't press the button but draw on the tip to draw juice into the carto), then vape away. All the steps after filling the tank I do because when you blow out the center it's possible you've blown it out a bit too much and now the carto is a tad on the dry side again. So the cold vape should draw whatever juice you need into the carto so you can actually fire it up without burning. I think the drip and spin method would work fine for you, and make sure you do a couple of cold vapes. Sounds like a lot of work I know, but once you get the hang of things it all becomes second nature and you'll know which steps you can skip just based on experience of how wet your carto was before you filled the tank, how much juice you blew out, blah blah blah. Don't worry, eventually it's practically fiddle free.

Edit... oh yeah... regarding the sig boxes... "I know a girl...", maybe she'll pop by after she's done at the school taking care of her paperwork.

micro break here, but I have to say:

Congrats Bliss!!!!! We knew you could do it!!!!!


Janie doesn't know who Victor is? Maybe he needs a thread of his dastardly deeds.....

And yes, we need a thread for To Steep or Not To Steep....

Or maybe it should taste like chicken.

*ouch! not the head!*

New sticky thread about steeping.

Cheesecake supplies are finally here today. It will be on the website before the end of the week. I need to get my recipes all lined up.

For Janie:
Victor as a pup:

Victor now:

He gets in all kinds of trouble, and the posse jury always finds him innocent of all charges.....

Thanks again, I will try your instructions and see how it all goes. I think I'll condom fill first and then top it off. Condom filling works better for me for some reason (mostly because I need stronger bifocals as I can't see the drips with my glasses).

Sallie,

I must say... between you and Stretchy... my monitors do not like me much right now! You are both a threat to them... I am going to have to impose the stretchy rule and swallow my soda before reading your posts from now on!

 

[Allazar]

But anyway, on to some news..,,,

I PASSED MY TEST!!!
70% required to Pass, Maximum score is 100%

State Law=84%
Written Exam=95%
Practical-99% (wth??!!)

So finally, the stress of that portion of my life is all done. Now, I just have to pay them all the extra money they want and then I will be licensed.

Awesome Bliss... I am very happy and excited that you are almost where you want to be!

I havent stopped stalking the site....

For Janie:

Victor now:

Tears down/through screen doors, eats baby chickens, and something about a window. All false charges. Though he was found guilty for nearly attacking the walking bathtub. But that was just protecting his mamma.

The laundry basket started it.
The baby chicken started it.
I really dont remember the window details, but Im sure the window started it.

By the way, when I came home from the track at 3am, I found that Charli had eaten the couch. I put her in her kennel and let Mrs E clean up the mess in the morning.

Sallie,

I never drink when reading here. Its hazardous to persons and equipment.

 

[FlyingV]

Nooooo, not the couch! Victor tends to go for smaller items, and cardboard boxes. Though the wicker seems to be preferred as it makes the biggest mess possible. Lately I have been a bit concerned by his fascination for the koi. So far he has been happy to watch them from dry land, though it is very possible that may change at a seconds notice. *sigh* Boxer are not great swimmers......

 

[Drottwiler]

If the ponds deep enough they'll be safe.On the other hand if Victor can stand in there They night nibble him.Then he has every right to defend himself.

self defense would be the only reasonable explanation
