Late Night in DIYland, take II

[flowerpots]

I had Northern boot camp at a young age. I had step-family from Ohio. They introduced to me to their syntax and colloquial terms, and I just naturally adopted it. Now, I speak really fast, in a mixed southern-northern syntax and terms, but with a southern drawl accent. It's funny.

 

[flowerpots]

What does Honey Peach taste like?

 

[Smoky Blue]

I can imagine..

I took speach and drama in both high school and in college.. loved every bit of it..
Have also traveled all over the US, and I do pick up accents too..
I don't think they can take the south out of me tho..

 

[Smoky Blue]

What does Honey Peach taste like?

ohhhh start with anywhere from 2% and go up to maybe 6% max.. it's like a peach with honey on it..
very very delicious, and it is one of 6 peaches in my Peach Overload.. one of the best peaches I have ever vaped..

 

[flowerpots]

At least you named your recipe lolly not sucker, see, there's hope yet.

 

[glassgrl]

roflmao... if you think mah text speak is southern.. wait till i gets mahself inta da shine..
den weez all in trubble!!

umm there is a difference between Southern and Red neck.. err I thank??

Big difference, yes. Part of that may be clothing and vehicle choices though...I've met rednecks (and been related to some) who aren't Southern at all.

 

[danykitten]

@flowerpots I used to live in Ga...and Tn..moved around a lot and landed in florida. I just can't stand the cold

@RocketPuppy sorry I didn't back sooner. Spring cleaning and organization got the best of me. I used 3% key lime 1% dulce de leche 1% cookie 1% meringue 2% fresh cream. Can taste the pie crust on the inhale and a smooth creamy key lime on the exhale. I love it.

Now that everything is organized I hate to mess it up. But I am getting more test tubes for individual samples and a new UC tomorrow so there will be much playing in my future

 

[danykitten]

That sherbet recipe looks the bomb. I might have to get everything dirty sooner than expected.

 

[flowerpots]

I made a 1% concentration tester of the NF Gooseberry. What would you mix it with?

 

[Ace]

Ganderberry.

 

[flowerpots]

Ganderberry.

LOL Good one

 

[Smoky Blue]

At least you named your recipe lolly not sucker, see, there's hope yet.

rofl!! be glad it wasn't sucker

I made a 1% concentration tester of the NF Gooseberry. What would you mix it with?

mmm you could turn it into a pie.. or a soda.. or..

Nutty Gooseberry, creamed..

4% nf gooseberry
.5% tpa french vanilla
.5% tpa dulce de lech
.5% Ap
2% Em
1% sweetener

I played with this one today with the jackfruit.. you could try it with jackfruit when you snag it, Flowers..
it's pretty nice

 

[Ace]

I know sb saw this but in case it was missed...

[Ace]

When you guys do little test batches, do you bother adding nic (assuming you use nic)?

 

[flowerpots]

I don't add nic. I wait until I call a recipe complete, then I add and retest.

 

[flowerpots]

I'm too stingy with nic to waste it.

 

[Ace]

Lol. When i came into this,; I just assumed that the 1st couple of orders of pg vg and nic would be write offs. Kinda like vegas. Any money you take is already gone and if you come back with anything good...bonus.

 

[Smoky Blue]

no nic here, either.. i do a 10ml test first.. if it lasts less than 2 days.. then i make a bigger batch with nic..

oh.. and i am all vg.. no pg..

edit again!

unless the flavors have pg, and even then i am careful.. pg makes me cough too much

 

[flowerpots]

Never thought of it in those terms, good point...now I'm curious if others do testers with nic too.

 

[Ace]

Also, a couple of times when I went to buy a pre made in a local b&m they were out of my level in thejoose I wanted. I bought it in 0. Not as good and not as satisfying to me.

 

[Smoky Blue]

what nic level are you, Ace?

 

[flowerpots]

I really can't fathom 0 nic at this stage. I'm still at 18 for pre-mades, and I can do 12-14 with VT nic and base, but I don't think I'll ever be at 0.

 

[Ace]

I use 6. I only (chain) drip. Used 18 when I was on the little tank thingies

what nic level are you, Ace?

 

[flowerpots]

@Ace, what do you chain drip in? What is your equipment? Does the equipment really matter that much for nic level?

 

[Smoky Blue]

depending on my mood in the mornings.. i go with anywhere from 12mg to 6mg..
once i get moving and am awake.. then its 6mg to 0mg..
you might want to try something like this, but if it's too big a jump for you, try just halving your nic..

 

[Smoky Blue]

@Ace, what do you chain drip in? What is your equipment? Does the equipment really matter that much for nic level?

it does, Flowers.. for some..
others are more flexible..

but yeps what equipment?

 

[Ace]

Not many people seem to drip over 6mg. It's way strong and harsh. I've gone as high as 9 a couple of times but it be like

throat hit

 

[flowerpots]

So, if I get a kayfun, would it be possible to drop my nic level using it?

 

[Ace]

I'm cheap. Like most scots. T100 mod with igo w atty mostly. Also have patriot, zenith, and stillaire.

 

[flowerpots]

I'm old school. I have 2 Vamo's V2, 3 eGo Twists 1300mAh, and 2 Vision Spinners, 1600mAh, and then a 14500 VV/VW mod I use for dripping a LR510 atty. I don't have anything fun and swanky.

View attachment 2258 throat hit

lol no, not many.. I do once in a while.. my better half does it all the time (at 12mg).. but other than us.. everyone else i know is 6 or under..

So, if I get a kayfun, would it be possible to drop my nic level using it?

either way, Flowers.. it's not hard.. but.. if you notice your nic cravings come.. increase the nic again..

 

[Ace]

Kayfun might let you drop. I think it gives better hit than what i used at 1st (kanger and iclear). I have 1 but rarely use it. The draw is way too tight for me.

i'd just get a mech and a dripper.. you will leave your old "toys" as I call them, in the dust..

 

[Ace]

I also have a dna30 which i also really like.

Does the draw change if you use a different drip tip? I guess not....How about if you use one of those air controller thingies? Have you tried one of those?

 

[Smoky Blue]

I had a mvp at one time.. but it didnt last..
i don't like my air intake too hard..
if i feel like i have to suck a watermelon thru a straw, it's so not worth it for me..
I have a omega, a igo4, gave my igo3 to my brother.. and then my kraken, and i dont use the kraken often..

on a nemi and a astro.. both are good mechs..

 

[flowerpots]

I am intimidated by mechs. I don't want one yet. Maybe later, after I learn more.

that's what I thought too.. until i got one.. now..
i don't even remember how to deal with a vv/vw

 

[misswish]

I freeze my nic, leaving out enough to make up 60ml of base. So, I use nic in base in my testers.

 

[Ace]

T100 maybe 20 bucks. Igow maybe 20 bucks. 18650 battery (I carry 5) and a charger 20-40 depending.
All my attys are drilled out for air flow except the stillaire cuz it already has slots.

 

[Ace]

Now if i could just remember where I set all the stuff down...

 

[flowerpots]

I still use Kanger T3's and T3S's, the new XJets, and Kanger Pro Tanks. All my equipment was purchased last year, so it's out dated.

 

[Ace]

I started with vision twists and t3s. Had to drill the holes on them too. Too lazy to work that hard inhaling.

 

[Smoky Blue]

lol I started dripping when I started vaping..
kanger bottom coil cartos..
rip the guts out and drip away..

 

[RocketPuppy]

I've got your back, fellow Southerner @Smoky Blue. I can syllabicate (who knew this was a word? I bet RP knew. I sure didn't lol) along with the best of 'em. I had to train myself to say 'cart' and not 'buggy' and not talk so slowly that people get that deer in headlights look.

I syllabicate often, just not when masticating.

Oh excellent! I thought the cookie would be a good sub. I'll post up the recipe with your name if that's cool.

den weez all in trubble!!

umm there is a difference between Southern and Red neck.. err I thank??

There is a difference between a "Southerner" and a "Redneck". Both of them drink beer. Both of them keep their beer in the fridge. It's just that the "Redneck's" fridge is on his front porch, next to the couch.

 

[Smoky Blue]

hmm..

 

[Smoky Blue]

umm.. lemme try this again...

 

[danykitten]

Gotta love a vamo. It was the first thing I got after the ego twist I started with. Got a caravella clone with a patriot and a kayfun and went back to the vamo. Surprisingly the hubby love the mech. He stole it after his twist died. Still love the kayfun. I use the patriot, smok catapiller, and a Smok dripper for flavor testing. Daily I rock my vamo with my protank 2 or a t3s because I like old skool I guess
