I just mixed up a batch of juice. I had placed an order with Lorann and I checked the wrong box and accidentally bought a bottle of 'banana cream' flavoring. I thought "YUCK"! I had about 4mils left of unflavored juice and decided to add a few drops of this flavoring and DAY-UM! I just found my new favorite! Goes to show you what can happen accidentally!
Banana Cream Juice to die for!!!

That's cool. I'll have to try it, I heard Lorann's flavor's taste "perfumey", so I've stayed away from it.
I'd still love to find out why every flave I try has some weird chemical taste to it.
Can't quite get past it to enjoy the flavor.... and I'm sitting here with banana creme which 'should' be my favorite.
So many people rave about LorAnn's and I really wanted to mix up some of those delicious juices I keep reading about..... 'how'?
Suggestions appreciated - Thank you,

Not in the least. Every flavor I've tried from a Lorann's bottle has been as advertised. It's the generic crap you get from most e-cig sellers that has a chemical and/or perfumey taste and smell to them.
How long have you been vaping? I know for about the first month everything had a funky taste to me. It took another month for things to finally settle down and really start tasting good.
I have a bottle of just about every flavor they have and I've never had a perfume taste. Some of them are stronger than others but that has been the only thing I've found wrong with LorAnn's. Make sure you use a clean well washed and well rinsed bottle when you mix, even if they are new bottles. I always wash mine before I use them.
Now Bickfords is another story. I mixed Bickford's blackberry and Brandy together and got a burnt rubber flavor. They were each alright on their own but put together they were a disaster.
The only one I've had a problem with is Bavarian Cream. I hate to say what it tastes like...
OK, it tastes like pukebarfspew.

Not only does it taste bad but it will change colors too. Mine went a bright red for some reason so I just dumped it and didn't use it any more.
must just be my taste buds...
thanks for the information Jules.

It's not just your tastebuds soupor, of all the different tasteless e-liquids i've gotten, they all seem to have that bitter taste. Tastes like warm stale beer to me. It's something they put in their base, but I'm not sure what. The pure nic+usp pg stuff I got from bliplabs has almost no taste, and i've found it takes very little flavoring to make it taste good. Maybe that bitter flavor is the type of glycerin or something else they put in it, but mixing my own stuff and staying pure seems to avoid the problem altogether.
FYI my current recipe is 30% 7.5% nic+usp pg solution, 20% flavor, 10% glycerin, 40% USP PG. Omitting the bit of glycerin makes a stealth vape, when I exhale there is almost zero visible vapor, but the throat hit seems to be a bit decreased as well, so I added it back in.
Edit: I'm actually vaping the banana cream right now too, its awesome. The watermleon and tropical punch are pretty amazing as well. I've been switching between watermleon and banana for the past couple days, love the stuff.

This place is probably not local but it seems to have pretty good prices.

I also have bought it off of Ebay.

I had the burnt rubber taste with Bickford's Coffee. I compared it to tasting like burnt sneakers. Took a 3 hour coke bath to get the taste out of my atty.
I had to use a baki8ng soda mix to get the taste out of mine. It was pretty bad. Makes me afraid to try the other flavors I have from them.
I didn't have any problem with the rest other than that some were very weak. I've switched to using Capella and I think I will use the Bickfords for coffee or yogurt or something (except for the coffee flavor...I won't use that for anything).
I tried bickford first when mixing my own and found the flavor unsatisfying. Then tried Lorann and it was just what I was looking for! A nice and jucy vape!
