Help with Vanilla??--The Holy Grail Has Finally been Found with HappyVaper

[Elokin6]

Oh I should have been clearer, I am using a brand new atty for my custard trails. It's just that when I vape it, it 'reminds' me of the bannana trails I had previously done. When I smell the liquid it smells super special, I just don't get the matching flavor when vaping.
I'll try some direct dripping to test the full flavor.

I did about a 20% flavor to pg mix, so maybe your ratio is off a little bit? Or maybe your scarred by the banana. I had that problem with lorann's after I tried the bavarian cream.

Well mixing my vanilla mix with some ry4 seems to give a pleasant flavor.
Leaves a nice vanilla custard aftertaste.

Ok so I am back from vaccation and it's time to give one of my two bottles a go.
I have mixed about 1ml of 60mg Eastmall Flavorless niquid with 2ml of PG, added about 14 drops of vanilla custard flavor and mixed it up.
It smells amazing, but the flavor when vaped is not the same. Here's my problem, before ordering these I ordered bannana capella and a couple of others. The bananna was really funky in taste, so I cleaned out the atty and will not use that again. But the problem I have now is that when vaping the vanilla custard, I keep getting reminded of the funky bannana taste and nothing like the amazing smell of the flavor.
Any tips to get the flavor like the scent? Have I added too many drops or too few?
Great service though and thanks for setting up the US postage.

Give your atty a vodka bath. Everything in the banana should be alcohol soluble. About 30 min in the vodka with a little swirling to make sure it is filled with vodka, then take out, paper-towel dry as much as possible, and let sit overnight to dry the rest of the way. Banana should be gone, although it might take another bath. Some have had problems with attys dying after a vodka bath, but that is not at all my experience. In fact, I think it extends their life because it keeps them residue free.

Banana is a tough one as a flavor, since the flavor compound is easily hydrolyzed to acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol, both of which will be very funky to vape, although not likely too dangerous. Not saying this happened to yours, but others on ECF have had this happen over time. Fruit flavors do not seem to hold up well to long-term storage. Some here have loved their banana, and others have had problems.

Good luck, good vape!

Just got made up a 14 mg VG juice with Free-Trade Indonesian vanilla extract. About a 15% vanilla juice. Not the vanilla I was hoping for (I too want more of a vanilla egg-custard vape), but it is none the less quite nice, with a surprisingly subtle flavor. I thought it would be stronger, but it isn't. The little bit of alcohol in the extract seems to add a bit of a throat hit too, without much of the usual alcohol-vape problems, like too much expansion of gas into the mouth.

I'm going to try their PG-based, nonalcoholic vanilla next.

Flavorarts has an egg yolk flavoring that is apparently water-soluble. Anyone tried it?

And can I use US $ on that site?

Thanks! Great thread everyone!

So far, FlavourArt flavors are pretty darned good. I've only tried 3 of the 12 I got, but I haven't gotten past those three.

Yes, you can pay is USD - but you might want to have a currency conversion calculator handy. They add 20% VAT (tax) and the shipping is fairly expensive. Even though the additional costs add quite a bit to the bottom line, I think they're still along the lines of any other flavoring, and definitely worth it.

But it's good to be aware of what you're paying, so have that currency conversion calculator handy.



By the way, the FlavourArt threads are here:

Lot of good info in both.

Yes they are !

I just tried beer ! (yes: beer !)

and... It taste like beer !

1 drop per ml give a nice blond floral beer flavor.
(intense flavour)

Speaking of intense flavor, really intense, I just also just tried Happy Vapor Vanilla Custard. I just cannot beleive Sun Vaporer uses it straight.
I think one drop is enough to flavour many ml of PG or VG. I know every body is different but ...

Vanilla Custard taste and smell like caramel custard cream. Really. Now I begin to understand why people dislike Dekang flavors when you can find such quality flavors !

However I do find it low on the vanilla flavor and thus we cannot close this thread yet !

I did that too, RY4 has been my standard vape for a while now, just for fun I dripped two drops of vanilla custard on my atty and just topped up my cart as needed with RY4. The vanilla custard flavor lasted for 24 hours, at first it was vanilla custard with a hint of caramel, as time went on you could taste the caramel over the vanilla. It's really nice mix though.

Has someone been "Man enough" to try bacon flavor ?

Sun, what great non candy flavour (and brand) would you recommend to a futur ex-newbie ?

Receive my vanilla custard today and it is GREAT! I put two drops full strengh in a new atomizer and than put two drops of unflavored e-liquid in atomizer. After I vape that up,I just drip with the unflavored. The vanilla stays strong in the atomizer. I will do this until the vanilla gets weak again. Did not have to mix it. I really like this. It reminds me of Christmas time as a kid. Finally a great tasting vanilla.

Who sells this vanilla custard?
