TPA's DK Tobacco Base

[beckyblue]

Wow! These complicated DK-Tab recipes are very disconcerting. The one and only Dekang juice I adore is DK-Tab, but I don't want to buy the Chinese juice (hope no one takes offense at that). Aren't there any really basic DK-Tab recipes, based in any of the various brands of flavoring? Nearly two years away from DIY, and I feel like a brand spanking new noob. Intimidation factor's sky-high, again!

I just mix 1 ml of DK Tobacco in 29 ml of nic, pg, and vg and let sit for a few weeks to steep. End of story.

Another for the Hall of Dumb Questions -- is that with the TPA DK-Tab? And I shouldn't fear the stink storied in this thread?

TFA DK Tobacco. Is that what you mean?

 

[beckyblue]

Yup. So you haven't found that it produces the odor that some folks are warning of? If you've tried the Dekang DK-Tab, is this gloriously basic recipe above similar? Thanks in advance!

When I got my first batch of flavorings almost 2 years ago, some of the flavorings smelled pretty strong. I kept them in a plastic bag inside a box inside a drawer. I could still smell them just a little when I walked by the drawer. It wasn't a bad smell so much as just a strong one.

If anything, the strongest, nastiest smell seems to come from the caramel flavoring, not the tobaccos. Maybe, my caramel flavoring is bad?

I had been assuming that you meant the TFA DK tobacco. Where are you getting DK-Tab? Can you provide a link?

Either way, I tend to mix all tobaccos at about 3.3% to start with.

I like the Si DK Tab. Use it for a 555 mix 60 mls. at a time. Doesn't smell bad in the concentrate bottle just a nutty smell. It has a very light amber color. I mix it with FW Caramel and a few drops of AP topped of with 3 drops of TA per 30ml bottle. MMMmmm.....

Wish I read this before I ordered some today, could have gone without. My mailman thinks I'm weird enough as it is. Can't do anything about that now. I'm not afraid to try it when it gets here though, going to start at 2%, hot bath and 2-3 day steep. Will keep my fingers crossed with one hand, nose pinched with the other hand if need be.
