Searching "What Can I Make"

That’s not true for me. When I select “what can I make” it will show tons of recipes with flavors I don’t have. I have always wanted this feature too where I can search for recipes that contain a particular flavor but where the results don’t show recipes that contain flavors not in my stash. Perhaps @daath know a way to make this happen.

Perfect. That’s what I was missing. I wasn’t clicking “What Can I Make” after putting a check in the Biscuit box.

I had that problem before too. When you adapt a recipe it automatically puts those flavors in your stash. That is probably why you see a bunch of recipes you aren’t able to make.

At least that’s how I’m understanding what you wrote. So when you go to User > What Can I Make, you see a bunch of recipes with flavors you don’t own?

Ok… something isn’t right here. I swear it worked once, now it’s not. Here is exactly what I’m doing:

User > What Can I Make.
Click “Search By Flavor Stash”, which shows all my flavors with a box next to them.
Check “Biscuit INW”, then click the “What Can I Make” button above it.

Doing the steps above show all recipes I can make. It doesn’t narrow it down to the ones that contain Biscuit.

No, The example you gave was for Biscuit. So, you can go to Search By Flavor Stash, click on Biscuit and find all the recipes that have Buicuit in them. Many of those results will have flavors you don’t have in your stash. If you click on What Can I Make, it will show all recipes for which you have flavors in your stash. What I was saying is I would like to be able to search for recipes that contain a particular flavor (for example, Biscuit) but only show results that I already have flavors for in my stash. Not all Biscuit recipes. Get it? :wink:

I understand. Looks like you’re trying to do the same thing I am, but I’m not having any luck.
I’m trying to filter out all recipes containing Biscuit that have flavors NOT in my stash.

“What can I make” will only show you recipes you can make with what you have in your stash… Maybe you have some flavors in your stash that you don’t really have?

“Search by flavor stash” will let you check off one or more flavors from your stash, and it will show you recipes containing those, plus possibly others (some which you might not have).

Yeah, I figured that one out some time back. With all the great features of the site I can live without it. But it would be cool to filter out those recipes that contain flavors I don’t have. As the site grows and more and more recipes are added, it would be an even better feature. Just sayin.

I have a plan to add an option to “Search by flavor stash” to do just that. Also to allow for 1, 2 or X flavors that you don’t have (selectable) :smile:

Sounds good. Thanks Daath. At that point the flavor stash part of the site will be pretty much perfect. I’ve yet to find a recipe site that comes close to the number options this site does. Most sites just list recipes and that’s it.

The feature you just mentioned allowing recipes with a determined number of flavors not in your stash to appear would be cool too. Easy way to find recipes to make in the future or just to substitute them for other flavors.

Ok. So I found a recipe that I have all flavors for except one (Raspberry). If I were to just skip the flavor, would you add a higher percentage of the others, or just make it as-is minus Raspberry?

I’ve never had the TPA Raspberry, but the recipe indicates it plays a predominant role in the fruit flavor. Certainly you could substitute any fruit flavor you think would work, or leave it out. If you omit it though I would raise the strawberry - like double if it were me.

Gotcha. I’m thinking it would be a good idea to replace it. I’m going to replace it with 6% Blueberry Extra TPA.

Yeah I don’t know what else to say, I always got exactly what I have in my stash. I was never given a list of recipes with items I do not have using that feature, sorry man

Weird indeed. Maybe you have so many flavors that you have a better chance of seeing recipes you can make vs recipes you can’t?

OR maybe you are a member of the Ejuice Illuminati so you get features other people don’t have? I realize you can’t confirm or deny that, so no worries.

There are two buttons: “What can I make” and “Search by flavor stash” - The first one only shows you exactly what you can make - the other one, where you check off flavors can contain flavors that you don’t have.

Is there any update on the ability to search for recipes i can make (using flavors in my stash only) that must contain specific flavors I select? For example, someone asked me to make something containing Blueberry Extra (TPA) and I can’t see how to search for that. It either shows me all recipes I can make (What can I make?) of which there are 2637 and maybe some of those contain Blueberry but I’ve not found any yet and there is no way to search within those results, or it shows me 1894 recipes containing Blueberry Extra (TPA) most of which I can’t make (because I don’t have the other flavors listed).

There is also the option to ‘search by flavor stash’ if you click the blue wrench. Check the flavors you want to use and voilà!

Edit after reading over: Try one of the recipes that are close to other flavors you do have, and try to make some subs. Or look up Blueberry Extra in the search bar and see if you can get some ideas from recipes posted in here.

Thanks for replying. Yep, that’s what I ended up doing in the end after spending about 40 minutes going through the unhelpful search results using the two searches available. Ended up making Blue Dragon 'Nana.

Would still be nice (and a big time saver) to be able to find recipes containing specific flavor(s) I select (from my stash) then have the site show me all recipes I can make (using flavors only from my stash).
