So we have the monthly recipe thread, but what if we also had a monthly challenge? For instance the mods would pick a flavor profile one month (let's say vanilla custard for example), then it's up to the mixers to create that flavor in their own unique way. I think it would be a good learning experience!
My argument for this: I'm not sure about most of you here, but I'm here to learn about different ways I can go about making flavors. There's a million ways to make a vanilla custard, but I wanna know others reasoning for their variations and learn from it. Like I said, an awesome cooperative way to learn new things!
Like a monthly iron-chef type thing? That might be fun.
Kind of! I wouldn't want an award for 'the best'. Taste is subjective and I just want it to be a fun experience. I want people to learn from others and help each other out and explain their reasoning for their recipes. I think having some award for it would make everyone less likely to help each other out.
This already used to be a thing. For example
Problem with that was if someone didn't have a flavor they would have to order it. There is 3-4 days right there, leaving few days to come up with a recipe for a flavor they have never used. I loved the idea but 1 week isn't enough time, especially if it isn't a shake and vape
That sounds like fun. Even if it's not a competition, it would be nice to try and push myself and get actual feedback from people who know what they are talking about. It's one thing to have a family member or friend say your juice is good, but when another mixer does it just means so much more.
