Ban/Straw juice advice needed

[Fidola13]

hey all one of my simplest recipes Strawberry Banana has been disappointing. Initially the banana was “prominent” but not strong very little strawberry flavor. After 3 weeks there’s very little of either flavor.

I’m really interested in having the banana as the prime flavor with strawberry undertones. Here’s what I used

Banana TPA 7%
Strawberry Ripe TPA 10%
30/70 3% nic

I have on hand CAP banana and Sweet Strawberry as well as FR Ripe Banana and some assorted creams.

Any suggestions are appreciated <3 thanks

Aha! So you’re not boycotting hay then. This makes so much more sense

In my limited experience banana is a really powerful flavor, at least it’s the flavor I get smell complaints about. Might or might not be something to look out for.

The best fresh Banana flavor I have ever had is the Purilum banana. Takes a week or so but fresh banana taste, not phony and lightly sweet

I’ve also been reading a lot of people prefer a banana cream instead but I want to use what I have on hand for now until I need to order more.

Try:
10% TFA Banana Cream
3% TFA Sweet Cream
8% TFA Strawberry Ripe
1.5% TFA Dairy
1% TFA Meringue

If you do mix this, please give me some feedback

TFA Banana Cream is excellent. I prefer it over LA Banana Cream. I would say that TFA Banana Cream is more 'candy' compared to the LA banana cream. If a banana flavor is what you want, TFA Banana cream has to be in your arsenal.

Thanks I’ll try it eventually but I’m trying to use the flavors I have atm. I don’t have a banana cream unfortunately.

Who’s Hay? And why would I boycott?

It’s a dumb joke: ban/straw. I specialize in only the lowest of humor. It’s a sickness.

Nah. You just have taste. My jokes jenerally go under people’s heads rather than over them.

Some flavors fade and make better SnV (shake and vape) mixes. Some recipes during steeping will fade for a few days then come back nicely melded. Orange flavors are a good example of this, at week 2 of steeping the flavor all but disappears but by week 4 they are back full force and have melded together. You will probably need 2-4 strawberry's to make a good strawberry, I would recommend you add INW shisha strawberry to your next order. It and TFA strawberry ripe make a good SB combined, 2 parts SB ripe to 1 part shisha SB is a good starting point. I don't use banana, can't help there.

This won't help you now, since you don't have all the flavorings right now, but it's simple to make, is very good, and the flavors don't fade. Thought I'd mention it before you place another order. I've posted it on the ECF before in various threads, and people who've made it said they really like it, too.

TFA Strawberry Ripe - 9%
TFA DX Banana Cream - 6%
TFA Cotton Candy - 2%

Of course, adjust the % to your own liking, as with any recipe. You could also use TFA Strawberry Ripe @ 6% + TFA Strawberry @ 3% for a combination of strawberries in it.

I use @JCinFLA 's recipe ^^^^^ above but do split the two strawberries for a more rounded flavor. I also include 1 -2% of tfa banana ripe. This flavor is extremely potent. Most users here will not use it as it can remove the markings on a 1 ml syringe. But I love it and it boost the banana cream and tastes just like eating the real thing. Strawberry is in the background. Good stuff.
