stamford - I lurve custard I highly recommend (taste is subjective blah blah!!) Steamgunks Captain Custard - now available from Chefs VapourDareDevils devilicious vanilla custard from Charlies Vape ShopThe infamous (and gorgeous) GVC - only available about once a month From the States Nicotickets Custards Last Stand and Creme Brulee are superb. Good exchange rate at the moment You've already tried Digby's Mums Custard which I also love I've just ventured into the mixing game - loads of helpful advice in Mixology. I am currently awaiting the custardy development of my first samples I made 2 weeks ago... This is why I also have loads of premixed bought custard at hand!!

spinners mvp and all other batteries that have pass through that work with a mini USB lead can be charged the same way through a wall socket adapter and I recommend the same wall socket adapter should be used 500ma max however some people like to charge them off there computer and if you do this please make sure that the USB socket on your computer is USB2 as that will regulate it correctly ronaldo I have 2 wall chargers - one says DC 5v 500mA which I take it is fine. The other (which I specifically bought for my MVP's off a site that I usually hold in high regard) says DC 5v 1A. Am now really worried I've damaged my MVP's by using it to charge them? What are the consequences of using this wall charger? Thanks

Am sat here laughing away to myself at this thread, when all of a sudden my cat has just launched herself out the living room window and dive bombed into the bush directly under a tree that has a bird feeder swinging from it - with lots of little birds trying to feed from it!! Instant karma for my laughing She has yet to emerge - I've shut the window just incase she decides to bring a feathered friend home... The oddest thing she's brought in has to be a frog - I was sat here one night thinking what on earth is that weird noise? She was prowling by the computer desk....I get up to explore and a live frog hops out at me!! I had to catch it in a carrier bag and release it well away from her. She used to bring stuff in all the time, if you tried to get it off her she'd actually growl at you! Gotta love 'em

Hope you've enjoyed yourself today. I have had loads of fun, yesterday and today Have made 3 different 5 ml testers that are all safely in the steeping cupboard. Though I have to say that if the Custardy Lovechild tastes anything like it smells I might end up buying shares in Capella! That 10ml concentrate isn't going to last very long at all The cat isn't best pleased with me. I had to shut her out the kitchen as she threatened to jump on the kitchen table - she's so nosey! Now she's off somewhere everyone for the help and advice!!

Thanks Jane @johanino - If only I liked menthol I would!! I can't abide any sort of menthol, aniseed, or fruit type vapes unfortunately. It's deserts all the way. I'm going to have a long wait to even try my mixes - I don't mind though as I have a stack of pre mixed custardy juices to last me until my new creations are ready to vape It's just good to learn how to do this, even if I don't get any payback for a while

Perpetua how do you mix it, and do you mix and leave until use of use straight away? I make mine up in a microwaveable china ramekin sammy13, having a larger surface area I find easier to stir and get the powder to dissolve. If it still looks a bit sludgey, then I zap it in the micro for just a few seconds. Leave to cool just to be certain, then draw up into a syringe and bottle. I don't tend to use it straight away no, mainly because I can't stand running out of anything so always like to have a bottle to use, ready and waiting. I've just mixed up a teaspoon of vanillin (which the lovely sleedale sent me) into 10mls of pg in a ramekin thing. Perpetua - I mixed it with the ramekin in a bowl of hot water and mixed and mixed, drew up the liquid but still have sludge at the bottom. Added a bit more pg to the sludge, microwaved it for about 7/8 seconds but still have sludge. Should I leave the sludge and just use what I managed to get, or carry on adding pg? I don't want to dilute it to much ???

I make it at 2% and I rarely steep the e-liquids just the concentrates...and I don't do fancy recipes (way too much hassle)...just one shot things. If I like it - good. If not it gets given away/binned Most of the time (like 99.9% of the time) anything above 2% is just vile!!! LOL You steep the concentrates before making a mix? Does that make a difference? Have just made a simple 5ml custard tester and put it away for a couple of weeks Butterscotch bliss next...

Perpetua - in that case, is it good for adding Vape Wizard after the juice has steeped completely? For example, if I made the mix, waited a couple of weeks, then it tasted a bit harsh - would I then use a bit and it would make a difference instantly? Have now got all the above concentrates (yep, maybe should of started with a couple but hey ho!) and am going to try the butterscotch bliss recipe you posted for me the other day chykensa Thanks! Loads of sound advice there I do feel prepared now to have a go... sleedale the vanillan just arrived Thank you again, much appreciated - now I have to re-read on how to make it into liquid!!
