Default EDP

I did a search for EDP and couldn't find a thread...

so what are the comments on the NEW edp?

I finally used it yesterday...I love it...IT WILL devitrify...
color is good...I am not sure that I am not just as happy with the original edp...just over the new clear and with the new clear over it.

I tend to torch in fits and starts and lapses.

I have to work on my website....and update my edp tutorial to include the new glass and what to do with the old edp if you still have any...

I have a lentil tutorial that will allow ANYONE to make PERFECT lentils easily!

I am in the process of moving my studio...and just barely got set up this weekend. But did break out the new edp

Pictures soon...so any other comments about the new version? Color is good...but still capable of devit...but not really a problem

Pictures tomorrow...

I've been following it as much as I can. Here's what I've concluded.

It can't be confirmed the formula has changed.
It is a hand made reactive glass and sometimes there are little quirps - hiccups - call it what you like.
It happens to the American handmade reactive glass all the time, and it looks like that's what happened here.

ingridh she was saying that the formula mix ups happen here in the US a lot, not that EDP is made in america. EDP is an italian, effetre color.

I reread my post and can see how it might be misunderstood. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

I would imagine it's like baking a cake, there are variables when making something, anything.. you get a measurement half a hair off, the weather is more humid, you stretch it at a slower/faster rate, blah blah blah... and viola - you get the idea...

I can tell you that these rods are quite different. This was based on a strange rod that I picked up and discovered it didn't devitrify....it had a clear center...I then used the EDP with the new effetre super clear and discovered that it quelled the edp from devitrifying....
I suppose if you search for my log in and edp you will find that whole thread...it covers lauscha and other clears...when I have time I will get the whole tutorial up on my website that is at the moment naked...sigh
I will get caught up...I swear )))
