I can’t remember how it tasted mixing it without the Vienna Cream. Maybe mix it without & like Hic said if it tastes too sharp to you then add it?

Both are good, without is a bit more flavorful, IMO, less creamy, though.
Thank you
Thank you - I’m going to try without first
You can always add the vienna after it's mixed, Wouldn't take away from your nic very much, and would add just a touch more PG to your final mix. May not be noticeable at all.
That’s exactly what I was thinking - I’ll use one of my reusable bottles where the cap twists off as opposed to a unicorn bottle
Finished my 30ml batch 
i did leave it for 2 or even 3 weeks to see what would changed
to be fair i would leave this for around 4-7 days preferably 4 and start using it that is what
i found work best for me..
Im trying it with 0.5% inw biscuit added at low % and with 2 drops of golden butter per 30ml
just to try and get that buttery base, the lemon did fade on the 30ml batch i just added
3 drops of cap lemon sicily and 2 drops of TPA sweeter and the next day after the
3 weeks it had steeped it was very nice..
I will report back when i find a buttery base for this dont think about making this just make
it very nice ADV for me im just fine tuning it to my liking..I did do 1.25% meringue because
i love meringue and wanted to add sweetness to it..

Still working it out so if you have ideas i get a much more rich base,more mouthfeel
only gave it 3 days steep this is what i changed in the recipe, slightly buttery but not
enough..some saltiness to the mixture from the CAP Golden Butter & INW Biscuit
was added to Hics original recipe do not try my recipe yet im working on it im looking
for inspiration from other people i need to find the buttery base im looking for like
dinner ladies lemon tart base or as close as i can get..
I will be ordering more flavours i will be also changing the ratios and playing with
Hics recipes and will update on how they turn out below was the mix i made it gave
it a richer mouth feel slightly salty taste not what im looking for it needs the same
base as diner ladys..
Im looking for a buttery pastry base if you have some good ideas on what concentrates
to use please help) i will work this out..Here is what i changed do not mix mine yet
this is for myself and i know its going to take a lot of testing to get it right, i will also be
changing other things within the original recipe trust me there is nothing wrong with
the original.
Its for my own taste i need that buttery / rich / pastry the same as dinner ladies
lemon tart base.
Do not mix this unless you want more of a richer fuller mouth feel the every thing, im
still working on it, i dont think its INW Biscuit that dinner ladies used, one thing i noticed
with the 3 day steep INW biscuit mellows and becomes richer with longer steep will
update in a few more days..
If there are any experienced diy mixers on here what would you suggest for a
dinner ladies like base..Thank you in advance, i have already gone through 120ml
of Hics LMP and i love it but i want this for myself and want to share once its perfected..
I was thinking JF biscuit or maybe TPA Pie Crust i will be looking for the right base for this
i love the recipe as Hic made it is good enough im just looking for the same dinner lady's
buttery base.
I will be swapping things out and in during my experimentation but these are kept
private until its perfected, Hic gave everyone a excellent starting base here or even
an all day Vape..
I even thought maybe a shortbread base might be more suitable for what im looking for..

Wishing you great luck in demystifying DL buttery biscuit. Many have tried recently but just can’t crack it. Close but.....

No s***. Dammit. Still working on it.......
Don't worry i think i cracked it not 100% but i have a good feeling what they done, its going to take a while
to finish off the recipe, but i got the base nearly there..I was surprised at what they done its still needs
more reffing, but Hics LMP was a good starting point..Don't want to share it until its finished.
you have to remember i have gone though at least 40x 50ml bottles of dinner ladys lemon tart
to get to this point.I still dont want to take any thing away from HICS lmp that is v-nice i have lots
more testing to do..But the base was the main thing.

Yay! Fingers & toes crossed!
IMO, JF Biscuit tastes just like a 1:1 mix of INW Biscuit and FA cookie. If you are looking to add some buttery crusty goodness try INW Shortbread at like .75%
Just made a 30ml batch of HIC’s Lemon Meringue by recipe, what’s a good steep time on it? Thanks!
it's made as a shake and vape. apparently the lime fades a bit. i'd let it sit for 24hrs and start vaping away.
Awesome, thanks! I don’t mind a longer steep but the overnighters are the best lol.

You are very close mate but there is something missing..I have lots of stuff coming today from chefs flavours and other concentrate
companies,but there is a little more to it i believe, You are 100% correct thinking they are saying pastry its not JF is not the answer
but you are very close..
I don't want to share it until i've tested all the possibilities and percentages, after 41 + bottles of it i know the smell and taste and can
pick them out one by one for the most part its working out the percentages if INW biscuit was used it was used very low i mean
very low..
But i will crack it im not wasting any more money on dinner ladys but still need my fav ADV thank you for your input mate..

We’re rooting for you!
I’ve never tried it, but I hear it’s got a cereal note. Like fruit rings or cap silver line fruit circles. Ive been meaning to pick up a bottle, but I can’t bring myself to spend $25 on a 60ml when I can spend $25 and get 160ml of flavors if not more
