Okay ladies and gents (and you other folks too!), I finally had some mixing time today to try out some new stuff from the BCV sale.

FA Tomato:
First off I tried it at 1% using 3mg NN base. At only 1% it was pretty weak to me 40 watts, then even down to 20 watts. Tried at 2% and got a little better flavor.
This flavoring to me is a bit lighter than V8 juice tastes, but more like the flavor use to make Tomato and Basil Triskets the wife bought a few weeks ago.
Upped it to 5% and the flavor comes through pretty well at 40 watts. It has an underlying sweetness that should lend itself well to mixing V8 Splash type vapes, which I'll have to work on later. I actually added 1% Black Pepper and am just enjoying this for now.

I hope to have some time for FA Saffron next...it smells really good!

Do you think it may be possible to create a Campbell's Tomato Soup (with milk, not water) with this? Perhaps tomato soup and saltines?

I love almost everything made FROM tomatoes, but the taste of tomato by itself is vile to me.

Funny you say that because I don't like tomatoes by themselves either, but also love most everything made with them, including tomato soup!

I'm not sure how you could get tomato soup (bisque) outta this flavoring tbh. I admit to not being all that imaginative, lol, but this seems to scream out that it wants to play with fruit.

Though it has the bad stuff, I'd think maybe yogurt? I don't eat bisque. I know at home in my kitchen yogurt and roasted red peppers make a mean salad dressing! Cut the tartness with a dab of sour cream lol.

Egads... I can't vape as fast as I can mix! I have 2-dram vials of e-liquid all over the place...
I know, I have little 5ml samples all lined up in a rack! I'm a chain vaper using single coils, I can't keep up! :oops: I keep telling myself to use up the ones I have before mixing new ones....sure, then comes more great sounding recipes that I have to try. :rolleyes:

Story of my life. I panic when I see a dozen little bottles, and then I have to make myself step away from the mixing station and vape till they're gone LOL Of course that would be easier if I stayed away from VU!

Next time I mix with it will definitely try adding some lighter fruits. FA Strawberry should go really well with it, but anything strong like bilberry might cover it up.

When you get a chance to grab tomato, you should get the saffron as well. I mixed it up at 2% and it's got a pleasantly light spiciness to it. I'm not entirely sure what saffron's supposed to taste like, but many recipes I found online had it paired with chicken.

I think the best find of the day was definitely the black pepper! At 1.5% I liked it a great deal, but I've always liked the taste of black peppercorns.

I've always wanted to say this: It's legal in my state, and I'm a home grower. Of saffron crocus, that is. lol! I use it to flavor rice in Indian cooking and have tried it in chai. I don't have FA's flavoring. If I ever make a real chai with saffron that I like, I'll get FA's so I can make a matching vape.

But I enjoy being an anonymous red blob. But you are correct Vanilla perhaps an avatar is in order. Maybe a picture of my 3 lb dog having an espresso in my Cooper while vaping on the sxmini? It's all so damn mini! I feel ya on the expense there Wllmc, my mod budget is shot, and I'm looking for subs for flavors I don't have! Time to consolidate a bit. (Well I've got one more order to place!) The dna 30 shark for like 120 or so is a steal though. Great mod, especially for a tank of some sort.

'Tis the season, right?

Anyone know of a good FA recipe (if one exists) for Eggnog without any of the baddies?

Ya know, I had some thoughts written down on that. I've not mixed anything, yet, though. Make us a vape Emilie! :)

Oh, my only experiments were horrible, horrible failures. I can follow a mean recipe, but you DON'T want me creatin' and sharin' 'em. :p

I wouldn't even know where to begin with Eggnog. :(

They were having quite a few problems with the screen getting all scrambling up, might have it fixed now though. I ended up getting the Sigelei 100W plus. Seems very durable, batteries last a couple days. $99 shipped. http://vaporrange.com
I talked myself out of this . was going to get the wireless charger and stuff but couldn't do it lol. I know I would break it the first week I had it. not sure they make a box mod thats heavy duty enough for me. http://www.vaporshark.com/advanced/russian-rdna-shark-skin[/QUOTE

Vienna Cream is almost egg nog all by itself.

2 parts Vienna Cream + 1 part Caramel = Hood's Caramel Eggnog (posted here, but I know you want that double-triple that strength)
To that you could add 0.25% TFA Holiday Spice for a sprinkle of nutmeg, or 0.5% Cinn Ceylon,
then 0.5% Jamaican Rum or Brandy to spike it if you want.

My pumpkin spice version is good, no custard notes, but not all FA either.

ps - IF you add spices and boozy flavors, you can also add a little Catalan Cream or Custard for extra 'egginess'. If you don't have the spices and boozy flavors, the citrus background really messes up a 'nog.

I hadn't even though about adding some Jamaican Rum! Great idea!

I'll experiment a little with Vienna Cream. I actually prefer Eggnog without nutmeg, so I'll see what I come up with. :)

Thanks for the ideas!

Wow. I'd never just sniffed Vienna Cream before. Nearly there, but perhaps a little harsh. I'll see what I can do about it. :)

Stranger danger!! Hey, @bcollier, how you doin'?
Hey Huck! Doing great, how's about yourself?
I've been busy at work since September, just a few more days on the job and we will have it wraped up! And then I'm on winter break so y'all might be seeing more of me, or should I say hearing more from me!

Hoping this is a good spot for this.
So I've done some reading here and a lot of you love FA. I'm currently using tfa almost exclusively.

How's the FA peach in comparison to juicy peach from tfa?
Also which creams do you recommend?

I have a 2 week Xmas break from work coming up so I figure it would allow for some solid time to experiment.

Any other must haves? I'm pretty stocked on tfa so I can't go balls to the wall, but I certainly can buy a fat handful.
Thank you much.

Oh I do have mts vape wizard but am kind of at a loss as to what it really brings to the table... Besides m.t.s

Evening,
@wllmc I read your thread about buying a vaporshark. I actually need a dependable mod that will vape .5-1.0. I ended up ordering the IPV mini. Then, due to a 20% off coupon code, ordered a DNA30 with an orchid atty too. I'm crossing my fingers that I'll get at least one of them before the weekend.

I'll be rebuilding and mixing this weekend and over the holidays. I've got flavors I haven't tried yet!

@2ndInCommand , Bella Cat says you need a puppy avatar asap.

@HeadInClouds I'm Interested in hearing about growing crocus for saffron. That stuff is expensive!!

Drinking iced tea. Vaping Brown Sugar Custard. Watching Dailey & Vincent on PBS. Reading VU.

Bulbs are usually sold in the fall to plant and bloom immediately; USDA zone 5/6 is ideal. Buy from a nursery where you can choose ones that look best. They're carefree and multiply like weeds in the right spot. Timing the harvest is the tricky part. You have to catch them at the right time - just a couple days' window. Here they bloom through the fall leaves. Snip the filaments, let them dry (I use the sun), and store them wrapped in paper in an airtight jar. $10-20 worth of bulbs will supply the whole neighborhood after a couple of years, and you get a harvest even the very first year. http://www.saffronbulbs.com/culture.htm I grow all kinds of edible plants - the weirder, the better.
