The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

thanks sailcat, i do use alot of fa flavours and dark bean is amoung them. i can get a great latte out of it, but still have not managed a good dark espresso flavour without it getting too synthetic. but yes i agree, its a great flavour at under 1,5%.

I got my order from BCV today. I want to make a raspberry yogurt but am not sure where to start.

I got my order from BCV today. I want to make a raspberry yogurt but am not sure where to start.

I've used the greek yogurt at 8% in a blueberry yogurt,and it was pretty good,but i think next time i'll try it at 10%.As for the rasberry,not sure there though.

 

[hittman]

I tend to start primary flavors at 10% so I might try the yogurt at that and was thinking 4-5% raspberry. I'm not sure what else. Maybe some EM.

Cream?

I've never found a vendor coffee flavor that tastes like coffee to me. I use my own coffee extract.

I have thought about trying this fran because I have yet to find a good coffee flavoring. May I ask how you do your extract? Do the oils in the coffee interfere? You can pm me if need be since its not related to this thread [emoji6]

I did a first try at a raspberry cheesecake yogurt. Not terrible but not great.

10% Greek yogurt
6% raspberry
6% cap ny cheesecake
2% whipped cream
2% Bavarian cream

I think it might need some em and maybe try TFA cheesecake instead.

I like the taste of the Capellas Cheesecake better but taste is subjective.

 

[hittman]

I'm used to the TFA cheesecake because I've been using it for months now. I just got the cap cheesecake so thought I'd give it a try.

 

[FranC]

I have both. I prefer the flavor of the cap.

Give it a few days and try it again.Capella cheesecake is just like their custard,it needs a few days to really start coming through.I think it's pretty good fresh,but it gets alot better as time goes on.

I love the cap ny cheesecake. Tfa cheesecake doesn't taste good to me but use alot off the graham cracker cheesecake crust

I just substituted some banana ripe in to a recipe that I normally use the regular banana in. I figured since it smelt so strong I would reduce it 2% and it would be great. WRONG! It just completely dominates the recipe. This stuff is hella strong!

Be careful as it is a plastic tank cracker.

It also destroys syringes almost immediately.

It is a good flavor but at really low percentages.

At what point should old flavors be tossed?

Where's that little man doing the happy dance when you need him?

My order came in the mail yesterday from WL. I've got 27 TFA flavorings to play with as well as some sweetener! Going to be trying some of Bill's delicious sounding recipes this coming week that I've saved to a file on my computer. I'm excited!!!
