short esters versus long esters

What’s the deal with short esters versus long esters? Like, do I go with something that kicks in fast or something more slow and steady?

If you hate pinning, long esters are probably better. But if you’re impatient and want results fast, short esters are the way to go.

Short esters hit you quicker, so you’ll feel it faster, but they need more frequent pins. Long esters take a bit longer to build up, but you don’t have to pin as often, so it’s kinda easier to manage.
