capella vanilla custard v1

[beastobadness]

It would be interesting if it was the same thing, I guess it's cheaper than CAP branded V1

£1.44 for 15ml and it gets cheaper the more you order up to £9.00 for 100ml. So yeah not bad prices...will test the two against each other once I give them a steep

My 200ml batch of cap VC v1 is coming up to two weeks old...the weekend will be it's first test in a dripper. I have to say the smell...OMG! Going off just the smell... I really don't know how it can improve anymore but it will be all in the tasting.

I'm have 500mls of 7month aged v1 to crack open shortly,personally i find about 3-6 months they start to shine i cant imagine it starting to taste any worse after 7 months (fingers crossed)

try putting a little away in a drawer or cupboard for a few more months and come bck to it then

7 months!!! OMFG [emoji33] I don't know how you stop yourself from blitzing it!

With a custard I understand that they benefit from a minimum 4 week steep (the classic way...a dark place and a shake) and I would probably stretch to 8 weeks but damn...7 months...I just couldn't...life's too short.

Do you really think Ambrosia let's their custard steep for that long? [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

It wasnt too bad i had slowly been making more than i needed each time i mixed untill i had enough of a surplus.

i recall someone here who had a custard that was nearly 2 years old...thats what i call pactience.

Come to think about it...back in the day when I was lung hitting 12mg (I know a bit daft but it worked at the time) I had a load of SCV callicustard which I didn't touch for nearly a year after dropping to 6mg (now on 3mg) but when I revisited MTL it was perfect in a Kayfun v3 mini. That was really dark but I think the nic strength probably contributed to the colour a bit.

I think I remember reading somewhere that Tom used Cap VC v1 in his Callicustard. I really need to take a visit to mix shop and grab some concentrates for SVC.
