Yes beedee I am the same there's not a week goes by that I am not buying concentrates, looking at the vta ones at the moment haven't tried any yet but seems to be some good feedback on them. Do not need to buy anymore. ![O_o](//storage.proboards.com/2973975/images/oA5mO2ZUXz3JRBkiUW80.gif)

Thanks to the VTA range I've gone off the rails completely this last few weeks, having been reasonably good for a couple of months . . . . it's finding time now to get them mixed. Ah well, there are far worse addictions!

Oh.... my.... ^^^ Most impressive! ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) You guys need some sort of old fashioned catalogue system to easily locate individual flavours, like libraries use to use to find specific books ... Dewey Decimal Concentrate System anyone? ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

another £3:30 down the drain. Must admit, tcg69, I usually buy their 3ml samplers from their own website when trying something new. You have to get 5 but it's saved me some expensive mistakes. Also, most of them are strong, so 3ml does me a while, if I like something from them enough to finish a 3ml, I know I'll probably want to shell out for a full bottle!.

I've kinda learnt my lesson on that one tcg69 . . . . the hard way of course! Now if I see a recipe that has a flavour which I'm never like to use again, I'll go for a substitute that's in the accumulations, something similar ( or not ) if I think it will blend in. Although there's always a slight nagging feeling that I may have passed on something that's outstanding!

If I ever win the Lottery, which is highly unlikely, as I don't do it! I'll buy us each one of these which we could have fitted out into a bespoke Mixing Room. ![](https://s14.postimg.cc/lgo0893yp/Pic_Ass1.jpg)
