Alright, I was curious. How many Recipes do YOU have?

I’m moving my recipes around, re-structuring folders, and I think my count was 1,982. I starting wondering, is that just ME, or does everyone have a big list too ?

How many recipes do you have here on ELR, or even in total if elsewhere ?

  • 300 or less
  • 300-600
  • 600-1200
  • 1200-2000
  • 2000-3000
  • MORE than 3,000 !!!

And 185 Flavors in Stash.

I recently started to purge recipe’s, looks like I have a way to go…

Another question is how many flavour concentrates do you have :smiley: @SessionDrummer you must have the whole collection surely haha

I counted 280 recipes, but I started DIY-ing only 13 months ago.

And I now have 205 flavors.

Likely 90% are not worth revisiting :grin:

1395 recipes here at ELR. Many of those are revisions with alternative flavors or percentages, a few are just a different batch size, and a fair number are mixes by other folks.
I did purge some clunkers a while back but it wasn’t a great number.

44 at ATF, though some of those are here as well.

Oh, I do have thousands by other mixers that I’ve printed to PDF or took screenshots of from all over, just in case some of the sites would disappear or something.

Edit: 1396, lol. Just ported over one of the ATF recipes.

I just checked and I have 2103 recipes to be precise but nearly all of them are by other creators and go back to when I first joined ELR which was back in 2018 I think :thinking:
My flavour stash has gotten way out of hand and is now at ridiculous proportions with a total of 1221 concentrates and I still need to add the last two hauls that I bought. It’s all well and good having all of these flavours but where do you keep them all? :man_shrugging:

You should include a second question . . .

How many of those recipes have you mixed more than once? :smiley:

Hehe @stickynigel, “The Whole Collection” sounds about right. My Stash is not even close, as I started spending soo much time testing, that I didn’t keep updating it, so we’ll go with The Whole Collection. :slight_smile: At SOME point, I’ll have to update the stash though.

Kidding, hehe, but yes, I thought that a lot of people might NOT know how many they had, until they looked.

lets see … i have 12 published recipes here and they are all monthly mix alongs

this is one reason i rarely write down recipes

i almost never make the exact same thing twice and just throw things together based on how i feel.
i do have a really good memory of combinations or rough templates i probably have 100 - 200 recipes worthy of writing down

1889 total. 107 in an “Idea” folder, and 194 in a “trash” folder. So 1588 i’ve actually mixed.

About a quarter are definitely getting mixed again.
The rest is a mix of “on deck” and “needs work” .
I cull pretty hard. If I don’t love the test mix or think it has potential with some tweaks it gets the delete.

At the minute just 31 recipes (newbie to DIY) :smiley:

I think around 905 recipes and about 800 flavors. It’s a guess because I know I haven’t added all my flavors to My Stash.

That’s the question that counts :+1:
