Best Coconut DIY flavoring?

[michaelsil1]

Awhile back I asked what was the best Coconut and the answer was Capella Coconut, It was okay IMO.

The best Coconut I've found is Inawera

Fruit Flavours - Concentrate Coconut 10 ml -

thanks, so it's not based on health concern of inhaling more than 20% of flavoring ingredients?

Some manufacturer's are known for low percentages; others for higher. Some DIYers choose to 'stay low' due to the fact that most flavors are PG based and they want to avoid PG (it's very drying/dehydrating and has a slight musty taste); others because of the chemicals. Then there's the fact that 'too much flavor' will diminish/alter flavor.

When the flavors are not free of chemicals with known inhalation risks (diacetyl, acetyl propylene or acetoin), then many DIYers that choose to use them anyway, use low percentages to lessen the possible risks of those.

Thanks I have to try FA after all the good words

'Hope you do! Here's a great thread of folks using them and posting recipes & results (and Pure Vapes has sample sizes for CHEAP!): http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/518022-pure-vapes-has-3ml-flavourart-flavorings.html

But I do understand your point

If you haven't yet discovered it, FA has two separate lines...Kitchen Magic and their E-Cigarette line. Flavors in the E-Cigarette line are formulated and tested to be 100% free of diacetyl, acetyl propionyl & acetoin. Some of the flavors in the Kitchen Magic line contain them, but they are clearly noted. HOWEVER, not all resellers make any distinction between the two lines. So you'd need to go to the FA site to check.

FA flavors can be used at very low percentages, and the majority of their flavors are fan-vaping-tastic. Their coconut is spot-on 'unsweetened coconut flesh'...no perfume, no chemical taste, no cloying-candy - just plain ole coconut.

If these 'inhalation risk chemicals' concern you, then you'll want to know there's only one other manufacturer that tests & reveals the 'inhalation risk' chemicals. That is TFA (The Flavorist Apprentice). Here's their Spec Sheets & Components TFA is currently retesting everything, so their product descriptions are not current & up-to-date with the Spec/Component sheet.

Thanks, I can't find this flavor (from PureVapes) on FA's website, do you know if's from the E-Cigarette line and safe for inhalation ?

Regular Flavors: Cream (Whipped)

Regular Flavors: Cream (Whipped)
Regular Flavors: Vanilla (Classic)

Whipped Cream is listed as: Cream Whipped flavor --in the Kitchen Magic line (from the description: This flavor contains Diacetyl and/or related diketones)

Vanilla Classic is listed as :::eyeroll::: Madagascar flavor (Vanilla Classic)...I guess they don't want us to find these things! (Actually, it's likely because English is not the first language in Italy).

The two creams from FA that are in the E-Cig line are Cream Fresh and Vienna Cream.

Fresh Cream is plush and almost exactly like real cream (virtually no sweetness or vanilla). Vienna Cream has a nice vanilla taste, sweetness, and a bit of a zing/bite (to us).

If I'm not mistaken, Pure Vapes doesn't offer flavors from the Kitchen Magic line. It looks like the Vanilla Classic is listed in the 30ml size, so they probably have it. The customer service is awesome at Pure Vapes, so don't hesitate to email them and ask (or choose "none", and add a note that you'd like the Vanilla Classic but didn't see it listed).

Nope. The flavor starts to disapear or begins to taste perfumy/chemically. That's true for any brand of flavor - if they reccomend 5% and you do 10% it'll taste light or chemically because you went too far over. Taste is subjective so that same flavor might taste better at 3% to someone else and at 7% to another person. The recommended percentages are averages. Your taste buds may vary. This is one reason why it's hard to mix even the same 3 flavors together to get the same flavor as another.

I've got a dozen Inawera that I mixed 2 weekends ago to give a second tasting to this weekend...really looking forward to it when I get a couple of minutes!! I added a bit here and there, did a couple of mixes, and of course the overtime kicked in this week and no time for any fun stuff...it's a shame I'm not currently into the tobaccos, you folks on the Inawera thread look like you're having fun with them!

Of course one of the 12 is coconut..

Yes we're having fun, if you got the older Inawera Coconut (they reworked it) I liked it at 3%

If I'm not mistaken, Pure Vapes doesn't offer flavors from the Kitchen Magic line.

Catalan Cream is a third FA cream from the e-cig line.
Pure Vapes does offer a few from FA's Kitchen Magic line, so you have to check FA's website to see which are which.
Yes, do ask them if something you want isn't listed - they've often been able to do that for others.
ecigexpress and rtsvapes also carry FA for reasonable price.

Thanks for catchin' my 'Catalan Cream miss' - and for clarifying about Pure Vapes. Also carrying FA @ very reasonable prices is E-liquid Mart.
