So this is cool. Alltheflavors.com has implemented active inventory tracking on the site. This means, once you've added all the flavorings you own into your "My Flavors", any recipe you mix from the site (as long as you create a batch), the appropriate measurements will be tracked. This allows much better upkeep on flavorings making sure you never run out.
##I made a video showing you how to use this feature.
/u/queuetue has also said that more features are to come. One being Alerts. So alerting you when you've passed a specified threshold on a flavoring, as well as easier mass-flavoring addition. Some of us with very large inventories might find it far too tedious to manually input all of them. Go check it out, it's pretty damn useful.
I thought the batch feature stopped working? It hasn't worked for me for awhile, I emailed the site about it. I click create batch and it just does nothing.
Have you checked your batches to see if it created one?
it has not. says most recent batch two months ago. i just tried to mix a recipe and create a batch, create batch button did nothing when clicked. checked batches, no new ones.
Is this worth the money? I purchased ejuice lab years ago, and development is completely dead on that app. Looking for a new mixing app, but a paid subscription is kind of a turn off. Especially when one of their huge selling points is "Look at all of the user recipes you have access to!", so essentially making money off of an already paying subscriber.
> Is this worth the money?
No, it's not. Cheapos and whiners will absolutely not enjoy using All The Flavors, and I strongly suggest you try ELR.
I would argue bulk number of recipes is more of a selling point for ELR. ATF isn't trying to be ELR; it's trying to be something that's far more curated. Where, when I search for recipes that use a certain ingredient, I'm seeing all the public recipes that use them, without wondering how many are out there where someone used a different name in the database, or wrote their own. Where I can be relatively certain the recipes I find have actually been mixed and tested before being posted, instead of just added and someone hopes they're good. Where I know I won't find 75 copies of Mustard Milk.
If you choose cheap, you get cheap; you get to spend time sifting through trash ingredients because someone totally had to add another Strawberry Ripe to the list instead of using the one that's right god damn there. You get to wonder if that recipe that has a bunch of five stars is actually good, even though the percentages look a bit off, because there's no guarantee on ELR that the person posting it has mixed it, or the people rating it have either. You get to spend time modifying VG, PG and Nicotine values because the person who posted it just loves 75% PG and 18mg.
Which isn't to say ELR is a bad site. I used it when I started, and I still point people towards it. It's great for people starting out to teach them that not every recipe they find is going to be a winner, and for people who don't know how much money they want to sink into the hobby, you can't beat free. Plus it's online, meaning it's accessible anywhere, and stores your ingredients list.
But in the end, you get what you pay for. Pay cheaply, get a cheap product. If paying money puts you off, you'll always get an inferior service where, ultimately, you're the product.
So it's not a mixing calculator, it's a curated recipe book. I just need a calculator and database to store inventory and my recipes. I haven't made someone else's recipe in over a year.
HOW ABOUT FIXING THE BCF FLAVOR ORDER INTO INVENTORY THING?
I've tried this numerous times, contacted Scott, and it still doesn't work.
And I've fixed it, numerous times - but since I'm parsing an email I have no control over, when they change the format, it breaks. Over and over and over.
For you or the original comment, what does this feature consist of? A Userscript to import BCF email orders into ATF? I can't imagine a way where you could grab table contents within an email from within ATF. Either way, I wonder if you could extract the table and modify the data via known data structures and slapping it into your own external table versus importing it based on classes. Food for thought, I was just curious. I suppose it's benign, especially since you introduced the CSV import.
> I can't imagine a way where you could grab table contents within an email from within ATF.
Yeah, it aint easy. :) But that's what I was attempting.
There's a new process for BCF (and ECX, WL) imports coming soon, and as you say, in the meanwhile, you can use the new CSV import.
This is great. Can someone please tell me the correct method to give feedback/suggestions for ATF?
On the site go to "Help" → "Give Feedback"
Wait a couple of days. Get frustrated. Go on discord and nag Queuetue until you get a "Fuck you" and maybe he resolves it.
