    No worries, my friend. Just like to keep the tone friendly on here. I like your posts too, and appreciate when you share your views, recipes and "takes" on different flavorings. I do like the cherry extract, and I've mixed a couple of juices with it that I like. I'm not sure TFA has the best...

    Remember, that taste is subjective, so we can each experience the same flavors in different ways, and that so very often happens if you just read this thread. Not only do we get different tastes, but even when we agree on tastes, the percentages can also vary, sometimes dramatically. I believe I...

    I agree. I think you want to keep these at 14 - 16% and in the same ratio as you have them. Maybe try adding some vanilla cupcake to the mix. Always works for me and my blueberry mixes.....and, a bunch of 100DT's, though you're closer than you think, I suspect. :toast: :D :2cool: :vapor:

    French vanilla emulates the ice cream flavoring, vanilla swirl is the sweetest of TFA vanillas. 2. Brown sugar is a flavoring, not a sweetener. Wonderful in many mixes, particularly pies, danishes, etc. Not for key lime, coke, or limeade....no, no, no....:D 3. Yes, cherry blossom is a...

    Great S&C recipe, Andria. I have a similar one. Great job! :toast: I think you may have too much flavoring in the blueberry. I would try and tone it down about 10%, because the flavorings are all there, but a little too high, which can work against us, just as too little can do the same. This...

    As I mentioned, Megan also likes just straight watermelon, and at 15%, so you are on track there. :toast: Should be able to vape the bubbleburst ATM. Better two hours later, perhaps hits total prime within 24 - 48 hours. I liked it just fine ATM. However, if you leave out the sweet and tart...

    I do often use TFA's sweetener and/or cotton candy in almost every recipe. They are different flavorings and different "sweetness."

    Watermelon is not a strong flavor, so it can get tricky to make a lot of different juices with it. Here's my favorite watermelon recipes: Watermelon Bubblegum Watermelon - 15% Bubblegum - 8% Sweetener - 2% Watermelon Starburst Watermelon - 15% Sweet and Tart - 5% Sweetener - 2%...

    I hear ya brother! It takes a while to accumulate flavorings to make recipes. About 75% of my recipes use 30 flavors. Still a lot, I know, but out of the 180 or so TFA flavorings I have, I still primarily use just about 30. You get on the TFA website and for me, at least, they all sound good...

    Vanilla swirl is the sweetest of the TFA vanillas, but it's not a cream. Try adding sweet cream and possibly up the percentage. You might like sweetener in the mix better than EM (I recommend the cotton candy only). I think it would give you a truer strawberry, and definitely add the sweet cream...

    I agree. I start most watermelon recipes at 15%. Lemon's above 12%. :thumbs:

    So, four fruits, two very strong (strawberry and raspberry), and two very weak (lemon and watermelon), no creams, vanillas or sweetener/cotton candy. Fruits at 21%, supporting, enhancing flavors at 0%. Probably too many different fruits, add creams and vanillas and sweetener. Yes, without them...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    Just curious, what percentage of overall flavoring are you using? Or, a recipe would be helpful. My guess is that you aren't using enough flavoring, the opposite of what you are describing. The strong dominant primary will carry the day over the creams and vanillas and sweeteners up to about 6%...

    Can you provide a recipe of what you made that has that dry flavor. If we can see the flavorings and percentages, I'm sure someone here can help. Also, the hardware, coil, wicking, air flow and temperature will all affect the vape, so if you can include those details, as well, we can probably...

    Sounds great. I add sweetener and/or cotton candy to everything, but that's a preference and taste choice. Good luck and great job! :toast: :D :2cool: :vapor:

    Playing with different heat/wattage/voltage to ascertain the best temperature to vape a juice it is a basic tenet of vaping. Some juices are more delicate and literally burn at higher temperatures that other juices thrive at. How this affects the inhale/exhale equation though is not resolved on...

    Makes sense, though sometimes I get differences, other times I don't, even with very similar mixes. If there is a specific way to do this, I'd love to hear about. Sure, we all have theories, the mix, the flavors, the temperature, the gear, air flow, wick material, all manner of coils, etc. I...

    I mix all my recipe pieces at the same time. I can't say that I've given any thought as to why we can make mixes and have different inhale/exhale experiences, but I know that it does happen on some mixes. If there is an answer, I would love to have some enlightenment myself! Interesting...

    You got it exactly right. Percentages don't apply as you can add cream to pretty much anything and it's good at some percentage, you just have to find it! Good luck! :D
