Its a cheap model but has good results based on @SmilingOgre reviewā€¦Not sure how long it will last

If you do use a homogenizer you will ha e to heat up your VG and PG ā€¦I do them together then add flavors all at once to base and shred molecules lol

Iā€™ve never used one of these and have heard varied reports from good to terrible. Like Fiddy said Ogre reports good results and he is a reliable source. Maybe he could chime in. It is a cheaply made unit and without knowledge of the components I am hesitant. Devices like this need to be made from materials suitable for food contact. For example, mine was made of 316 stainless steel and Delrin polymer. Both are FDA and USDA approved.
Nevertheless, many people are using these and I have not heard of any bad effects.

Thats because the GC made people want a homogenizer and this is what they could getā€¦I got rid of my small one to someone who really wanted one. I will not get rid of my Large one

Great to see you posting again!!! Iā€™m thrilled youā€™re here!! I should have noted when I bought it in hindsight. Nothing negative to report. As you note, it is cheaply built yet keeps chugging along with no apparent change in function.

@fidalgo_vapes, good call on heating. I drop my VG in the Sous Vide awhile before I start mixing (easier to pour) and then put the final mix with everything added back in the Sous Vide for bit before homogenizing.

Its surprisingly insane. Its like eating real custard. 25 percent cap custard is gooood.lol i woukd have thought that past like 10 percent it wouldnt really change but it does

Sometimes I get tempted to see how far concentrates can be pushed but Iā€™ve never gone quite that high but pretty close. I pushed cap root beer up around twenty, and the same with cap creamsicle. With those it didnā€™t make much difference but hey, whatever works.

It was good but I thought weak for MF. Sorry, I forgot to thank you. Iā€™m using OoO layered with a touch of FLV and sweetened with sugar mama and pretty happy with it.
