    Recipes for Dummies

    Been vaping White Lion from German Flavors for a few months. To me, it is vanilla pipe tobacco with a touch of white grape. The white grape is not bad either, it's there but not dominating. The grape almost brings it together. I mix it at 4% and it starts coming together around 2 weeks but...

    Zamplebox - Good or Bad?

    I tried it when a few years ago (2014 I think). Set my profile for tobacco flavors and got mostly sweet fruity flavors and one RY4 type (I did not like it as I am not a RY4 fan). I asked them why and they said at the time they did not have many tobacco flavors. I quit my subscription after a few...

    Just tried a mix I made up about 2 months ago and am loving it. One of those that I mixed and it fell on its side and I just found it while clearing out my cabinet. It is a very nice cigar vape I named Tuscan to the Maxx which I thought I'd share. Tuscan (SC) 2% Maxx Blend (SC) 1.5% Burley...

    You're not going to get the burnt tobacco taste with NET's. You will get the taste of the tobacco itself which is pretty awesome. I would also caution about trying to extract a Marlobro cigarette as all the chemicals in that cigarette will be extracted into the mix. Look at the link Rick posted...

    DIY tobacco flavoring as standalone

    Really been enjoying White Loin from German Flavors lately. Mixed at 4%, it is very pipe like. A little sweet (not an annoying sweet though) from a slight white grape flavor along with some vanilla. It starts to come together at about 2 weeks and gets better as it ages. Caribbean Blend from...

    Howdy Katya, USA Red (HS) is a pretty straight forward cigarette style vape. Since your only looking for an accent flavor, start at a lower percentage and work your way up. I mix it at 4% which works for me. I use this with a menthol style mix as well so it does play nice with menthol. Not sure...

    To continue on some German Flavors (GF) reviews. I got a little busy with life and had no time to sit back and enjoy anything new. Well, trying to get back on track with life so gonna review a few I mixed up over a month ago. Virginia (GF) mixed at 3%. A nice representation of a Virginia...

    Crown 3

    I thought the Crown III was terrible. I bought two of them due to the colors and reading a few good reviews. I get muted flavor with not so great vapor production. Messed around with them for a while but gave up. I use one for a real strong menthol I use every once in a great while. The other...

    I tend to use the SC line at 3% as a standalone and 1%-2% as a mixer. Also, when I mix SC tobaccos, I try not to go over 4% of the total blend with SC tobaccos. They are strong and tend to get an odd taste if mixed too strong. I like Cohiba-HS at 4%. Used to use it at 6% but taste buds changed...

    I agree, Hangsen tobaccos are some of the best out there. Still mixing them as standalone blends. Then I mix them when adding to a tank with a little from one and a little from another. Not scientific but it works for me. On the other hand, I have been drawn more and more to the SC line of...

    Personally, I like adding mints to a menthol tobacco. It takes away some of the harshness of the menthol. The mint I like to add is Natural Mint WG-INW. However, there are times I will not add menthol and instead, will add peppermint (TFA) along with the natural mint. It's a good change of pace...

    Natural Tobaccos - Part Deux

    If I am understanding your question, you're referring to NET's you mixed yourself? If so, it could be your nicotine. Some give a good throat hit where others are smooth. My nicotine level is 6% mg and notice Nude Nicotine (NN) being relatively smooth with little to no throat hit. Whereas, nic...

    SC is Super Concentrates. I know Bull City, Vapers Tek, and I believe Ecig-xpress has them under a brand name of Flavor Express. Not sure who else carries them as I have not looked. In my opinion, they have some of the best cigar and cigarette style vapes. Of course, that is just to my tastes...

    I find half the fun of DIY is seeing how a mix changes from week to week. Tasting a fresh batch is part of the process for me. I like to find a percentage which becomes my sweet spot or starting point with certain brands. For instance, with the SC line, 3% has been my sweet spot whereas, it is...

    Can't wait to hear you get something similar or completely different. Or maybe you can taste a tobacco which I am struggling to find.

    Oh wow, forgot to mention these. Oops. Tuskin (SC) mixed at 3%. Wow, very nice cigar. I come from vaping NET's and this one reminds me of one of my favorite NET's which was an ACID Blonde cigar from River Bottom Fog Sauce: Dagwoods Wife is Trippin (DWiT). This has that high pitch note which...
