#2 Happy 4th!!!

LD, you know I would be down to show you how to mix juice! And I know you like higher VG juices, so please order your nic in VG. Most flavorings are in a PG base and if your nic is also in PG it makes it harder to control your ratios if you want those huge vapor clouds. Feel free to PM me or call me anytime if you need to ask questions. And download the e-juicemeup calculator immediately. Even if you are good at doing the math, its always good to check your work. Nicotine is nothing to mess around with.

I went to the informal vape hangout tonight. awesome group of people. Excited for the Vape Meet! Hope you get to come, LD.

Good Morningnite to all my fellow VVVers. Took forever to catch up on the thread, as I have also been attempting to scan, defrag, and repair my daughter's sluggish laptop at the same time.

i wanna go to the meet! i have a court appearance that morning for my traffic ticket, so i have to change my work schedule to 12-9pm, maybe i can use sick time to take the 2nd half of the day off, ive been dying to get there! if i can get the email to them in time, ill ask for them to switch my nic base to vg, hopefully its nbd
i was linked to alusions calculator and played with it for a few minutes, seems pretty easy to use. all the mixing will be done right into bottles, and ill start really simple with one flavor and possibly an enhancer at a time. i do believe you will be hearing from me more often

Nitro from the Mod Envy show had his apartment building catch on fire twice.. Poor guy must be having a terrible 4th..

well, can't say i am surprised that NITRO would be involved in FIRE. (if i took the time, i could have come up with a much more clever response, but i am tired and my mind is not in the game)

#5 What I wouldn't give for it to be "not too hot"!! At this point, we have had 30+ days in a row of 100+ weather, and now its also humid. I either sleep all day, or i can't sleep at all because of the heat. I really need to move to a cooler climate.

testify!!!

WOW!! Best Superman movie ever. I was the only one in the theater. Walked around counted rows and seats per row, did the math, and plopped myself down smack dab dead center of the screen. I put my feet up and as long as noone else was there I vaped through the whole movie. Must all be automatic now cause when I left some credits were still running, I looked back and you could see tons of smoke in the projector lights. LOL. If anyone was at the projector they would've known what I was doing and booted me out at the beginning of the movie.LOL

i was vaping at World war Z on wednesday, the theater was about 20% full, so i blew it down. no one said a word.
i used to leave the theater to smoke and rush back b/c i couldnt make it through a whole movie! and the superman movie was good, but i woulda rather seen it on a big screen

I'll have to try it sometime. Maybe I can trick my son and his wife to come over and help. I'll tell them I made lasagna, that will make them stop by. LOL

I have a 3 tier steemer, a huge electric chicken fryer with a huge steemer section I've never used and 3 electric pressure cookers. That should hold many dozens of tamales and blow some fuses.

you are ALWAYS WELCOME to come down to t-town and steam us up some foods

TPA and NO butter!

i got a small 3ml of whipped and a 10ml of sweet. not sure which company, i cant access the site here from work.
most of the flavors i got, with 3 exceptions (cream excluded) were capellas, and 3 were TPA

7/5 #1

Morningnite all!

LD, you've got a good assortment. 120ml of 60mg should last you a while if you vape 12%. You've got enough base that I'd recommend trying your first few flavor mixes in no-nic juice; every little way of conserving the nic helps. I've had my 30ml of their nic since mid may and have not yet worked my way through all of it with most of my juice being 6mg.

When your package gets there, don't sniff all the flavors in one sitting. You'll blow out your nose and nothing will smell right the rest of the day If you MUST do it, then have some coffee grounds in a bowl nearby to sniff between flavors (it'll help reset your palate).

Our venison/beef sliders turned out fantastic: perfectly cooked and juicy. Only problem is we've found pieces of steel grinder in 2 of them so far No injuries or actual swallowing of steel, but now we have over a half dozen sliders we can't (won't?) eat for fear of doing damage to ourselves. I've never had to go rant at a supermarket about metal in my food, so today might be a first for me...

good advice Tina thank you! where should i look up what concentrations to use of each flavor? some on the site said 5%!? I assume they are all concentrated differently, er, all different strengths. hopefully it lasts me a long time! i made sure to get sweetner, sour, cool mint and koolada. feel like i may have over done it..
and, although i am not sure i would do this, but ask for the stores GM, get them to pull the product and give you a shopping spree for keeping quiet about it. could work

Wifey not having a good day so I'm missing another day of work.


Adam if you got the juicy peach from TPA I had a hand in making that flavor. Linda ( at TPA ) is a great person to work with.

LD, if they're from TPA/TFA they are strong concentrates so some of em are used at five percent. Not all. You just have to start low and move up.

TPA and NO butter!

Why no butter. I love it and add it to most my juices?

 

[Schnarph]

chat bump-

There is a high risk of butter flavors containing diacetyl, the chemical that is responsible for popcorn lung. While some flavoring makers know what we are doing with their product and will test their products for diacetyl, others will not disclose any specific data on their ingredients. TFA is the best friend to the vaping community as a flavor producer, they know what we're doing and cater products to fit our needs. Most of the rest are intended for food and beverage flavoring, where chemicals like diacetyl would not be an issue. IMO, vaping a buttery flavor is probably not a big deal unless that's all you vape and you like it strong, but most of us avoid the flavors once we find out what popcorn lung is.

Update on the metal bits: consensus is they're not from the ground beef but are instead bullet fragments from the venison (shot and processed by my husband). Have been eating the stuff for over 10 years and this is the first time it's happened. The price you pay for the ultimate free range food I suppose...

I'm starting to realize TFA hazelnut is my current favorite mixing flavor. I like it with fruits, with coconut, with RY4, by itself... Might have to get the big girl bottle on my next DIY order. I even mixed hazelnut with Capella strawberry and Loranns cream cheese frosting (my sample from Wizard) to make a passable strawberry cheesecake.

thank you, trial/error and research. ill try and find a list somewhere on line of recommended percentages by flavor and company

i didnt get the butter, partially for the reason that Snarf states. but mainly b/c i would like to make a mango cream and a strawberry cream and didnt think it would have been the right cream flavor for what i was trying to achieve
