    Would like to expend my flavor base

    I also like a few of Capella's, NY Cheesecake and Vanilla Custard (favorites). VZ-SC Gourmet Blackberry is one of the better versions of this flavor IMO. (VZ-SC Gourmet flavors are from Russia, Bakersflavors, kinda pricey but only need to use around 2%). Tasty Puff Rasta Root Beer is another...

    DIY question about sweetner

    I get the "diet" aftertaste when using TFA Sweetener. Try some TFA Brown Sugar Extra instead. or Marshmallow (TFA) Honey (FA) Sweet Cream (TFA) Molasses (TFA) Maple (TFA) Meringue (FA) EM or Cotton Candy Probably more I've forgotten. Most of these will add some sweetness to recipes, Brown...

    is there a fruity pair for TFA dairy milk (DIY e-juice)

    Thinking some Blueberry Wild added in might be good.

    My DIY is costing me an atomozer-a-day,, at least. Getting frustrated. HELP!

    Coffee, Chocolate, Caramel, and Cinnamon are all very hard on coils. Yep the darker ones are usually the worst. Fruits generally cause less trouble. You could try that recipe cut in half, might be better...

    Toning down the bitterness of a tobacco

    Not much flavor in Marshmallow, more like a sweeter, fullness thing.

    Toning down the bitterness of a tobacco

    You're on the right track, just keep lowering the percent until it's right again. Some add a couple drops of AP to tobaccos. 1-2% TFA Marshmallow will usually help to smooth things out a bit also.

    220 flavors after 9 months, plus 12 more in a cart. Many I haven't even tried, but some tried and not liked. Purevapes sell small samples (3ml) I think, way cheaper until you find the ones you like best. After some time you'll order 30ml bottles of your favorites.

    Watch out for TFA Ripe Banana, it will melt your syringe rubber inside. Use drops from the bottle instead...

    Oh YUM! :) tastes like smoking finally!

    I've only gone up to 6% total flavoring with tobaccos I like, but a bit too strong. Dropped to 5% now. Don't know how strong the Seedmans is or what TA you're using but something else to try... Seedmans Virginia 3% TA 2% DNB 1%

    Oh YUM! :) tastes like smoking finally!

    Tried many Inawera tobaccos myself and didn't like most either, too much other flavorings mixed in. However, The (WG)DNB and (WG)Virginia Tobacco Absolute and I wish I could buy a gallon of the stuff. Mix them in with either VZ-SC Parliament or VZ-SC Virginia Flue Cured. No Vanilla, Caramel...

    DIY - first week with my stuff...

    Sometimes the perfumey-ness is caused from too much flavoring. You can just leave the top cap and dripper top off for 24hrs to see if it helps some. Some flavorings are just perfumy, I'm getting this from my FA Blackberry now, (only using 1%). VZ-SC Blackberry is way better IMO.

    10% Flavor West Candy Cane is the best IMO.

    The biggest issue with Blueberry flavor is that it's easily covered up by other flavorings IMO. I use Blueberry Wild primarily but sometimes mixed with FW Blueberry, or CAP Blueberry. Normally 5% of each. Sometimes I add a few drops of FA Bilberry too. If you go above 5% on other added...

    Oh, and I've found Strawberry, Cherry, and Raspberry to be way too strong for me. So I prefer them at lower amounts <2%.

    Vanillin can work as a sweetener or enhancer depending on how much is used. I normally only use 1-2% along with other Vanillas to enhance them. More creams may also help in this, think layers. I'd even add some TFA Brown Sugar Extra rather than EM or Sweetener, but that's just me. I find...
