BICKFORD Flavor List (Complete List)

[Wall]

is shippping in the US reasonable or overpriced

you hear a lot about flavourart, capelas, etc but not much about these, how do they compare?

$9... seems excessive, but it's because they only use UPS. in the US, i would prefer if they used USPS... flat rate cant be beat for small orders.

Yeah, well, I've used very strong pure peppermint oil-based mixes for months on LRs and 5 volts and no atty issues yet.

Maybe it's no good on stock attys, especially the low-power ones like 901s and 801s.

Does anyone have any more reviews on the Bickford flavorings? Thinking about getting some but would like to get some current reviews since it's been a few months now since the last posts.

Thanks in advance for those who can post a review of favorites, strenghts, mixes etc.

I'm trying to figure out a good percentage to mix these at, as well. I use Flavor Apprentice at 25% flavor, 75% nic juice. I'm a bit worried about the review that mango was oily. Mango is my absolute favourite flavour, and i'm about to go on an ordering rampage....

Actually, oil-based doesn't automatically equal "do not use". I use a number of oils in my mixes (lemon, cinnamon, anise, clove, peppermint, etc.) with no problem. They all mix just fine in pg and from a technical point of view there's no reason to avoid them.

I know that some people feel there's a health issue in breathing vaped oil-based flavors, and it's true that some people have allergic reactions to some kinds (notably, cinnamon, oregano, clove, among others) and should avoid those oils. Outside of that, however, I've seen nothing to indicate a particular health issue. It's certainly never caused a problem for me.

Also, you typically use the oils in a far smaller amount than the flavorings so the amount of oil involved is quite small, and it's hard for me to see how that much oil can cause a problem. When I was a kid manning a deep fryer in a restaurant, I breathed far more oil than I get from vaping flavors.

Anyway, if you are concerned health-wise, don't use the oil-based flavors. Otherwise, do!

Does anybody have a reliable recommendation as to which percentage of Bickford flavour one should use in a liquid?

Just for comparison: In Europe, we use FlavorArt at around 5% up to 10-12% on average. Some people use their tobacco flavours even at only 2% and find that just nice. (I prefer my flavourings a bit stronger - but if I compare a flavour from FA to e.g. one of TPA, I must say, from TPA I need to use around the triple amount of a flavour to get roughly the same intensity which I get using an FA or CBV flavour.) This is just to give you an idea....


EDIT: One more question:

Has anybody tried the Dark Vanilla and could give a review? (Also: which percentage they used?)

I don't do UPS. The only time I use UPS is if someone is paying.

Oh well, maybe the next time I'm on the east coast I'll pick some up.
