Glad you think so! And, happy to have your participation. Doesn't matter if you make it to the vape lab or not. Plenty of time for questions, suggestions, or what have you. Many thanks!
LOL me too.
I would join but I use a whole lot of FA flavors, not only TFA, and I doubt I could make a danish flavor with only TFA, since I try to avoid anything with custard notes in it and most of the TFA bakery stuff has them.
We are not limited to TFA flavorings if TFA does not have a particular flavor. So, there's an exception for you. Those that don't think they can mix up a great juice should join for the participation, questions, learning, etc. that this kind of activity can foster. Few of us have everything in place this moment to be able to do this perfectly anyway. It's just a community thing and everyone's participation is helpful. I believe it is certainly possible to make a great Danish without custard notes too. many Danish have no custard in them, and custard flavoring can be made with two of the TFA creams mixed, neither with custard notes. It is possible, and that just presents an interesting challenge anyway, one that I would welcome. So, why not give it the old college try? Good luck!
I wondered how ppl were using that stuff. It's silly sweet! I pondered adding it to another flavor I had here from candy making-because its inherently un-sweet (when it should be). However, it seems to have run away from home!
I can't WAIT to get some darn cream cheese icing-READ ----- Jealous, Jealous, Jealous

Hello all!
Fantastic response to the Vape Meet here online. Thought I would clarify a few points.
The vape meet starts tomorrow and ends on Sunday, October 19, 2014. I know that not everyone has everything they may need, so that's why we have 15 days to figure out what we want to do, and enough time to get to it.
We will be trying to construct a Danish recipe. The recipes that get posted will only have the flavorings and their percentages. We don't expect any mixes to have more than 30% flavoring, but that is up to you.
The most important part of these efforts is our communications here on this thread. Ask questions, provide suggestions, provide mixes, etc. Just keep track of what you're doing and tell us all about it.
There is no one way, or final recipe. In fact, everyone may end up with a different recipe, and that's fine, more food for thought, and a lot of options for us all to try.
I see the flavoring as the doughy bread component and the sweet internal component. As such, the flavoring will be about 50/50 for the two components, but this can vary wildly by taste.
Use the taste test 100 drop method to test creations and test them immediately, and report findings. After flavor bonding and steeping, feel free to taste test again and report any changes, or lack thereof.
So, communication and supporting our community are the most important elements. IF we end up making the best Danish on Earth, well, then, lucky us!
We have no idea how this will work out as I'm not aware of similar efforts anywhere on ECF, so we'll just have to see and play it all by ear, so to speak.
There is no right or wrong, just contributions here. The journey is what is important, and helping one another.
There is NO LIST. Anyone can participate and we everyone to do just that. We have the common goal of making the best Danish we can, and there is no one flavoring, or fruit, or what have you. All contributions are welcome!
There may be other elements and good advice, but this is all I can think of now.
See you tomorrow!
This ought to be an AMAZING learning experience! I myself, cannot WAIT to try out some of the new stuff I have coming (and I see I'm going to have to get more LOL) woohooo
*sniff sniff*
Do I smell? Everyone ran away!
If I smell like anything, it's menthol! Just brewed a quick batch up of 100ml for my FIL. I wore gloves and somehow I still smell like that stuff!
Has anyone here worked with the menthol crystals? Have I asked this before? (please excuse if I have-no one mentioned when I got in a race car near 20 years ago that when one whacks ones head because 8 cars hit you, it's possible to forget something that happened 3 seconds ago lol CONSTANTLY ) If someone has answered this, please just point me in the right direction lol

oooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cant wait to hear about your new toys! Glad to see you in on this!
Aaahhhh....the Taifun GT, my favorite RTA. The mini tank is excellent for taste testing, imho. Got ya down, my friend.
Three more for 20 confirmed. How about you Vic and Mrs C? I think this would be right up your alley.

By the way, if I missed anyone, my bad...and so sorry. We really don't need a list, which seems both inclusive and exclusionary, I just wanted to get the ball rolling, to invite participation, to make sure enough of members wanted to participate at some level (feedback is enough to join this wayward band!), to achieve a common goal, to build community, to help one another, and most of all......TO HAVE FUN doing it together!
By the way, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE ON A LIST TO PARTICIPATE, and everyone is invited to participate. Anyone can post to this topic anytime, and we sincerely welcome all your participation! Don't let:
Lastest, I think. Let me know if I missed anyone, please.

I know Domo quite well. I used to buy my carto tanks from them. Their GP SnP Tank is the best carto tank on the market, imho. The glass is a bit thin, so buy extra tanks, You'll need 'em if you drop your gear, like I do:
https://domovaporco.com/product/gp-salt-pepper-tank-v2/
Very nice stuff! Your vape just improved rather dramatically, my friend. I have nine GT's now, just about the only thing I use anymore:
https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10009199/1632903-taifun-gt-style-rebuildable-atomizer-5-0ml
Make sure and get the Taifun GT "B" models. They have A's and B's. The B's have slightly wider wick slots. Makes a difference. I use KGD in these, and it's really hard to beat, compared with anything, short of a good dripper. Speaking of that, I did get an original dripper, but FT has these as well:
https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10006709/1766602-taifun-gt-nano-kit. Only $6.00. Changes the Taifun GT to a dripper, which is not bad, imho, and quite easy to change in and out
BTW, I have two originals and the rest clones, mostly from Fasttech. The Fasttech ones are really good. I can't tell them apart anymore. I have no idea which are the originals....
Edit, you can get the replacement mini tanks in all plastic for about a buck a piece. Fantastic for taste testing. 100 drops, new tank. 100 drops, new tank. Works great!
I bought ten of these: https://www.fasttech.com/p/1699501. The plastic caps will break so I got half a dozen of these:
https://www.fasttech.com/p/1815401
I bought 20 additional colored and clear tanks, 10 in the short, another 10 in the tall 5 ml tanks. Doesn't matter if I drop 'em, kill them with the wrong juice, or anything else, I've got plenty and again, you simply cannot beat their pricing. I just love their hardware pricing. I used to buy a lot of mods from them too, but I think eVic is their top of the line, or perhaps Sigelei, both pretty good regulated China mods.
Got the missus this one: https://www.fasttech.com/p/1814501. She loves it, and it works perfectly. Another on order now.
You're not going to believe this, but I received 51 drip tips yesterday. Yes, I have a sickness. I like the wide bore ones (more airflow), and I like my bling. All different ones. Eleven more on order that haven't shipped yet. What can I say?
I got six of these: https://www.fasttech.com/p/1632903.
Nothing fast about Fasttech, but phenomenal pricing that can't be beat!
I like your VapeQuest very much, Mike!!!

I've been pretty busy the last few days and come back to a vape meet going on!
I wish I could participate but we are going on a hiking trip in a few days. I'll be back on the 10th, but then my sister will be up visiting for the weekend (and I am going to a birthday party for one of my granddaughters on Saturday), so I wouldn't be able to do anything until the 13th. I also need to order more flavorings. I can't order them until next Friday. I don't want them delivered while we are gone. Booooooooooo
I am really excited about the hiking trip though. It's my first one since I started vaping! No more having to pack out cigarette butts and I can breath so much easier.
