One thing I've noticed about the Blueberry Cinnamon Crumble. It gets positively divine after about 30 days on its own.

I believe you because even your avatar is drooling:D A question though, does the blueberry take that long to shine through? Vaped all mt initial 10ml batch long before it got a chance to reach the 2 week mark!

edit: oh, and what % do you use; if you don't mind sharing your secrets. Thanks

Ummm, right up my ally, this was my 1st effort but needs more berry!

12% CAP BCC
4% FW VC
1% CAP Butter
2% FA Whipped Cream
1% PA Brown Suger

nice and creamy but don't have the crumble and not enough fruit so have ordered some blackberry!
This sounds delicious too ... I will have to try it, thanks for sharing :)

Your welcome. as stated, I found this lacking in fruit even after almost 3 weeks steep! I am still waiting for my new flavor order to arrive but couldn't wait to try my next favorite crumble - apple, and of course, with custard! Some say that where flavorings are concerned, less is more lol. Well, where these complex dessert juices are concerned I don't agree and find you need 20-30% of total and more balance with flavor %'s. Perhaps they were referring to tobacco or fruit which I do go low on.

So here's what I made up yesterday with a few changes to %'s and using CAP VC in place of FW VC.

CAP BCC 10%
CAP VC 5%
CAP Sugar Cookie 5%
CAP Double Apple 2%
CAP Butter 1.5%
TPA Brown Sugar 3%

I dropped the creams in search of the crumble, I was a baker earlier in life and want to find the true representation of this recipe in a juice. I like custard on my crumble and that is creamy enough IMHO, Next attempt will be with more berry and Vanilla bean ice cream in place of the CAP VC and apple.

As for yesterdays effort above.....OMG, smells great already,.. time to have a taste, here goes!:vapor:

I couldn't agree with you more, I've been reading the TPA thread and I have learned a ton from Bills Magic Vapor on the high flavor mixes. I just got more of the BBC, I've been out for a while, I don't have the Double Apple flavor though, that will have to be on my next order so I can try this recipe too. I love Caps VC, I have 3 ADV and they all have it ... I'm not big on fruity vapes, but when I want a change and need something different, the BBC is really good.

With regard to fruity vapes it's a case of 'been there and done that', sort of, although they do have their merits. I really like the litchi flavor! I think red berry's go better with the cinnamon/crumble notes but that remains to be proven. The double apple seems lost at the low % I used so may come on with steeping or may need a boost to 4%, not sure.

I have 3 Kayfun's, 2 Magma's, 2 Origen's, 1 Patriot, 1 Kraken and a whole slew of other tanks and atty's but never seem to have one empty and ready for tasting a new juice batch:laugh:

That last apple/BBC attempt is still steeping and I made it at 12mg so it will have to go into a Kayfun or nauti so I don't get the head spins lol
It's not what I was looking for and likewise I am waiting for resupply's to get here and continue experimenting. Trying out a Victoria sponge type recipe right now with more cake tones but will get back to the BBC and post how it came out after a while. Onward and upward

I have, 2 Kayfun's, a Taifun GT and a Taifun GT II, they are all always full it seems, I do have an IGO -W that I only use for tasting new juice .... How do you like your Magma's? I've been tempted to get one.
I've been mixing all morning, just test batches but hopefully I'll have a few good ones, I made a couple of Bills recipes, Mango Custard and Cream Cheese Danish. I also made A variation of the Boston Cream Cheesecake but used FW salted Caramel (I've had it for a while and have been looking for something to use it in) and a couple other random RY4's and Butterscotch .... Now I just need to wait :p

Just realized, I followed your lead and was calling BCC , the BBC lol.

The 1st SS Magma I bought back in July and the flavor was so awesome I got a second black one. I managed to get AFC rings in copper, black, SS and brass so can have them match any setup. They are really good but need to be handled a certain how or else they can leak through the air holes copiously :(

More supply's arriving tomorrow so I'll be similarly experimenting this weekend trying out Asbestos's Custard version with Vanilla bean ice cream and cotton candy as well as more berry with BCC and marshmallow. I would like to make something with Butterscotch, have FW and NF but most threads speak of little success with it. If you have a recipe I'd love to try it? Otherwise, I am going to try making an English toffee with it-that salted caramel sounds like a good addition-a little salt can bring out hidden flavors:toast:

That guy is a wealth of information. I follow his words very closely.

Best take a Sunday aside for some of those threads that run into 100's or 1000's of posts lol. They are a goldmine of great tips and info with many highly experienced members sharing their thoughts and experience. It is a reference library for anyone getting into diy, I have spent many hours there and it usually puts me into a mixology mood, Cudo's to them;)

Lol, my bad on the BBC :p.

I have a couple recipes that have Butterscotch in them that I really liked. My Butterscotch is from MBV, which I think is FW, but not positive. I'm not home right now, but as soon as I get a chance I'll look up a couple of my favorites and post them. One of them was with RY4 Double, I use to love it, and I don't know if my taste buds started coming back after not smoking cigarettes or the flavor went bad, but anything I've made with my RY4 Double has tasted like straight tobacco, it's not the creamy caramel vanilla.

Let me know on the Asbestos's Custard, that sounds delicious!

I've made this today with a 2% extra Blueberry Wild! Smells nice already. I will report back in a few weeks ;)

You could try it sooner and see what you think of it pre-steep, if it has potential but is just missing some notes but is generally tasty it should just get better and better. At least that is what I have found to some extent other than sweetness, that can diminish :unsure:

BBC,= Baileys, Banana and Coconut lol, jelson,..you're a genius:D my favorite tropical holiday frozen drink- worth a try?
Mmm. I know what you mean about changing tastebuds. Started out like yourself with tobacco flavors, then fruit, then desserts, then started frankenvaping tobacco and coffee in the morning which led me to more complex juices today! Lately, I have dabbled in blubacco and caRnY4 and really like them.

Shoot me a PM with any recipe you have for butterscotch and I'll give it whirl, save you starting a whole new thread or getting too way off subject:blush:

Still steeping the BCC batch with apple but tasted it today and not too bad-mistake was going with 12mg strength-too strong for my current rda setups
