any vanilla lovers out there?

[susieque]

i'm very new with DIY and i'm curious if anyone has a good strong sweet vanilla flavour... i did a sample bottle of 3 ml with capella's vanilla custard (smells wonderful).... 20% nor 30% was strong enough for me, so i decided to do 50% last night. so today i came home and tried it, the flavour is there,but it's still weak for my tastebuds... maybe i need to let it steep a few more days to see if the flavour will become stronger.... i'm so used to getting really nice full flavour from a vendor and mine aren't even close to what i'm use too...any suggestions, i could really use some good pointers in my quest of strong juice.... HELP!

I've only tried Bloog's Vanilla, pre-filled. Not my thing. It tasted like sugar-free chewing gum to me, but maybe my taste buds are wonky. Everything else I've tried from them is great though.

The best Vanilla that I have tried is called Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. It has a strong taste of the vanilla but still holds the sweetness of the Ice Cream. I have used the Vanilla Custard, but found that the full flavor seemed to wash out. If the vanilla that you purchased from your vendor was a strong orange color, then I can bet that is was Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, if it was more yellow that orange, then it was a custard.

One of the very first vapes I had that satisfied me was Vanilla Bean Ice Cream from Vixen Vapors. This is my go to vape when my taste buds are being fussy, or overwhelmed. It's a daily vape for me. I get double flavor for this one, since my taste buds are still a little slow to recovery. It's probably the best vanilla I've had.

I agree with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, i get it from PA and use it in everything. I'm very fond of the ice cream flavor that comes through

I don't know about diy but tasty vapor's ultimate vanilla is great!

thnx so much guys - busy bee my vendors colors are more yellow than orange and very strong flavour - just love it to death... so may i ask where you purchase your vbic.. slvox - i just got on the pa site and i'm worried about the ingredients - it's stating that it could be harmful in breathing in... should i be worried about this? i really would love to try this flavour out, it sounds like the one i've been looking for.... i'll keep an eye on this thread and i'll start shopping and looking for a possible vanilla bean ice cream that's user friendly... huggs to all of you.... what percentage should i start out with the flavouring -20%??

 

[slyfox]

If it has a warning it must have some custard in it. I don't want recommend either way to anyone else because health is a personnal issue. But I feel that it is a very small amount if any in it and there is a good chance that vendors are probably using this in some of their mixes. You might be able to make your own, I've heard sweet cream and vanilla with malted milk taste like ice cream.... Let me know what you come up with

edited to add I usually mix with other flavors so I use 10 -15 %

You might have went too high with the Capella's? You can lose the flavor if you overdo it...

capella's smells like the real thing, but the funny thing is, when i started at 20% i got a very light taste, so i went higher... it's a little bit better, but after a couple of vapes, the flavour disappears for me... not sure why, maybe it's my tastebuds doing this.... i'm going to let it sit for a couple of days, but in the mean time, i'm going try some vanilla bean ice cream and see what it does...

For many flavorings, 20% is already too high. If that's where you're starting, then you may just be overflavoring which, paradoxically, can make the flavoring taste weaker (but harsh and nasty if it's way over). When i test new flavorings, I start at 10%. Most of mine are best from 9% to 15%. Some go as low as 1/2% (clove oil), some go as high as 20.

thanks so much - i'll give it another whirl and see what happens... i really want to do this, so here's hoping that i can make it work...

Capellas vanilla custard smells just like tasty vapor ult vanilla. That said, I think that letting it sit and steep for a few days really helps.
