I don't think you'll find Eclipse minty enough to torture you! It's a really mild hint-o-mint - pretty bold tobacco, though.
Mmmmmonsoon...is such good stuff! Best new FA flavor in a long time for sweet tooths like me.
I suppose it was a web site security thing. It is working now
Yesterday, I mixed a single flavor of both Eclipse and Aurora, both at 3%. Today, I vaped the Aurora in my Vector RDA with a dual coil SS 26g 9/8 wraps 3mm ID => 0.315 Ohm. I'm getting a floral and fruity flavor, I think a hint of grapefruit. The floral flavor, I'm thinking, it might be Lavender, and/or Jasmine. However, I don't have either flavors. Therefore, I can describe it as floral only. Overall, I like it. I see myself using it as an ingredient for a tobacco flavored e-liquid.

Happy Mix Day! Started the year by replenishing my stash with some of my HIC favorites - Old Fashioned Doughnut, Cranberry Jam Muffin, Black Pepper Ice Cream, Berry Cobbler and Mendis Coconut Brandy. I love Irish Cream so I did Holy Frappe and Irish Malt Ice Cream to try as alternates to my regular Irish Cream Milk Shake. As usual, I had trouble choosing what to mix. I also did a few simple mixes to round out the options. Phew. I may be mixing again before the weekend ends, I want something like Country Fair Apple Pie, Pear Apple Frangipane, Thai Mango Sticky Rice or Baklava in my stock too. Then there's Kaktus variations... 
Yup, flavor junkie who likes to change it up...

I have a HUGE sweet tooth so looking forward to that. Oddly enough I like Andes mints and such just not menthol LOL and on that ... well it was a cig thing that I hated so we'll see how it goes
Thanks so much btw! I swear you save my taste-buds on a daily basis. I go over and over and over your notes while mixing
Had to buy your Jamoca recipe... dang it LOL I can't wait.... well I'm going to have to because I can't mix until tomorrow night (fingers crossed)
Don't have Tuscan.... *sniffling* I have Soho and ordered Glory...

Yes, and it's one of my favorites! You'll find it in his recipe store - HIC's Mixes
I ordered the flavors to mix up HIC's Bora Bora Collection & FA Monsoon since HIC is raving about it. Can't wait!
Mixed up HIC's Mandarin Nut Torrone, Double Caramel Cappuccino, Ferrero Rocher, a different variation of Churros, more Pumpkin Pie, Carrot Cake Frappuccino & Thai Mango Sticky Rice!
Happy New Years Everyone!!!

How does pineapple-papaya sound? Those two FA flavors are excellent together, and I think they'd make a fine sub for Mango in that recipe. Actually, probably in any recipe with mango - expect it to taste sweeter than mango, though. They're all strong flavors, so no adjustment to the total percentage should be needed.
coconut-banana? coconut-banana-pineapple? I don't know, maybe...
Honestly the coconut and rice pudding would work just as well for me. I love a rice pudding LOL
Question, I mixed up HIC's Bora Bora White. Gonna let it steep as suggested. It was suggested to mix up a batch of steeped Bora Bora White & add the additions to a small amount. So for example, if I put it in a 10ml bottle, then to that add the .5% of the suggested flavors? Is that right? Thanks!
That's how I read that as well.
Yes, that's how I did it! When I realized every variation I liked required just a simple addition to the basic recipe, I make a honkin' huge batch of the basic recipe to keep (steeped and ready to vape) on hand. Sometimes I vape some of that. Other times I fill a smaller bottle to make one of those variations. It gave me lots of variety with minimal effort, just a really simple method.
Thanks for the clarification!
Ooooh I just tried HIC's Pink Sunrise Mojito, made this afternoon. It's sooooo goooood! I definitely taste the "Mojito" it's a bit more complex, HIC's much more descriptive than I can be. It's definitely a must try! Yay! Another winner! Thanks HIC!

Hey HIC,
The option to pay with PayPal has vanished from your site. It was there up to 4th Jan, have used it a bunch of times no issue. Hope you can help I want those Custard Creams
Love your mixes, cheers

Hey HIC some other vaper friends raved about your oatmeal cookies and I'm dying to try it. Is there a way I could get an email or something when it will be back in stock? I've been trying a long time to get some.
Thanks for all the work you put in to help us

I see that, too - all Gumroad stores are currently missing the option. Technology...making our lives easier.
I'm investigating and will update here when I get info, but if it's not quickly restored, I'll PM you here with a back-door alternative.
Hey HIC
Thanks for all the work you put in to help us
You mean Oatmeal Creme Pie from Mamaj's? Let me see if I can find out how their move is coming along, and update here. I hope @wllmc and company are liking their new location and back in the swing soon!
Oops that's what I meant. Hadn't had coffee yet haha
I see that, too - all Gumroad stores are currently missing the option. Technology...making our lives easier.
Gumroad's PayPal option is expected to be restored "by Monday."
Meanwhile, if you cannot use a credit card instead, and you don't want to wait, just PM me here or email me, and we'll work around it.

Hi hic,
Any recommendations making the haribo (german gummi bears) recipe more "candy" like or a revision is comming, made already 2 batches and barely gave each one 1-2 days steep time.
Its a bit to fruity and cant quite get my candy craving out of it, some notes are just to sharp in it compared of taking a handful of a fresh bag of haribos

The "xxx" strength I wrote about in the notes (10%+) is what I'd recommend. If you're starting at 7%, you might want to work up to that in steps. They are fragrant bears!

Hi all, I have returned from the black hole! I was catching up on the thread and read the description of Monsoon that HIC wrote and ordered 120 ml! I am really getting paranoid about the legislation and banning of decent juice! Anyway, I wanted to show the cool container of Monsoon I got from ECig Express. It is directly from FlavourArt in Italy! I hope you all had a great holiday season!

New today at HIC's Mixes : Cantaloupe Crush
"Inspired by an all-fruit breakfast smoothie, ripe melon sweetens a juicy trio of peach-orange-pineapple. Sweet cantaloupe remains prominent as the supporting flavors come and go in changing combinations. Though this was designed as a wake-up vape, the intriguing flavor changes will keep many fruit fans captivated all day. This recipe requires only FlavourArt fruit flavorings, including White Peach."

Went with the second variation of the Creamsicle recipe with the Mandarin, Custard and Vienna Cream. Mandarin comes out strong right after shaking but give it some time and it smooths out nicely. Awesome yet simple mix at 80/20 VG/PG and 0 mg nic.
HIC, i bought 2 of your recipes, quickberry pink and banana pudding and they are excellent! I have a question, I tried to add 2% distilled water to the recipes with max vg, originally i have made them 70 vg/30 pg and they are wonderful, but with distilled water max vg flavor tastes muted/ deluted. What percentage would you recommend to up the flavor so it tastes just as good as 70/30?
If 70/30 tastes great, why change your base? Do you just need it thicker for dripping, or...?
I am trying to avoid pg and make the vg a little thinner with water so to avoid dry hits in the rda tank. I have noticed when i add the distilled water it minimized my problem with my nose constantly dripping when vaping. I heard from someone who vapes, that dripping nose is a sign of dehydration. Am not sure if its from dehydration or cause of max vg but the nose dripping has been way less. But now flavor is deluted/muted as i said.
Now I remember you asked about that somewhere else. When I went from mostly-PG to max-VG I didn't need to adjust flavoring at all, so I can't offer an informed rule of thumb for adjusting recipes for different PG/VG ratios. Anyone else?

I mix for a friend with a pg allergy, have to do a 90/10 max vg for him, and I never use any more flavoring than usually posted in a recipe. The steep time might be a shade longer, but the flavor turns out the same as the 60/40s and 70/30s I make for myself. I've vaped the max vg mixes I've made for him to see what difference it made in the flavor, and there was virtually none.

Haven't made these yet. Just read your flavor descriptions & all I can say is "WOW" my hats off to you HIC! Thanks for all you do!

if you want to add distilled water -- Try adding .5 extra of each flavor
shake
steep a day or two
shake
shake
Good luck!
Hey HIC...Gumroad has once again stopped sending me notices when you post new recipes. This keeps happening. How can I fix that?
