Guide to DIY Flavoring

[Sun Vaporer]

Thanks Sun Vaporer. I'll ask all those questions and post their response. Maybe they would be willing to do what Capella and PA did and set up a separate category of DIY.

Is there someone here more versed than I in flavoring terminology and what we need that's willing to work with them if they're open to it?

Excellent Gooddog!! Bickford actually changed their website to reflect which flavors are water soluable and which are not. Also ask them if they are diacetyl free.

Apprecated,

I'm wondering if anyone has tried Suttons Bay Trading Company's flavorings? I have tried loranns and it is just to weak and Capellas and Flavorart plus perfumers aprentice doesn't have the flavor I'm looking for. I found this place on the internet and they claim they are 3 to 4 times stronger but if the won't work then they won't work. Does anyone know anything about them?

I'm about 99% sure Suttons Bay Flavorings are repackaged LorAnn Oils, since their flavors match word for word and ingredient for ingredient with LorAnn's.

I tried mixing 70VG/20water/10 Lorann's brandy flavor. It was okay.

Is it really soluble in water though? Cause I get some tiny chunks in the mix, which I'm guessing is the flavoring. Is it because I used VG instead of PG?

Well I just added a whole 1dram bottle of loranns to 15ml of 50/50 vg/pg and couldn't taste it. It was like vaping unflavored nic juice.

If it's repackaged loranns they have a great price on it.

It should be water soluble, and there should not be chunks. It has nothing to do with the VG or PG. It's possible you got a bad batch of flavor. Where are you seeing the chunks? Did you thoroughly mix it? How big and what color are they?

It's gone after 2 days. And yes I mixed the hell out of it. It was a 30ML bottle. Guess I shouldn't just throw it in the fridge right away.

I added 1 dram to a 30ML mixture. I could taste it. It was more like grape juice than Brandy though.

The refrigeration storage is for nicotine VG/PG to keep nicotine strength from dropping over time, not for mixtures once you add flavor. Some flavorings can (as you know) solidify a bit in the fridge. As long as you keep it away from sunlight and too much heat your mixture won't really lose anything unless you don't use it for a month+.

Recommended strength for Brandy is 10-15% and you used 11% so it may be too weak for you.
