Hello everyone ! I am thinking of mixing up a recipe and i was wondering if anyone could help me out a bit if it doesnt sound to good :) here it is :

Tpa•Straw ripe - 7%
Tpa•Vanilla swirl - 3%
Cap•Vanilla custard - 2%
Tpa•Banana cream 2 %

Not my cup of tea but the BC is quite intense. You might want to start out at <1% and see how that works for you. It's also tends to swirl the mix if too much for the blend. If you up the % gradually and run into this try warming your flask under hot water as you add it in. This may help get it into solution. Sounds fine.

Good luck. :)

I mixed a batch of juice today and used Strawberry Ripe at 8% and Vanilla Custard at 5%. I also add 2% Cotton Candy for sweetness. I find SR is best at 7-8% and VC at 4-6%.

So your recipe should taste good based on the vanilla to strawberry. I would lose the banana or start with less. It is strong and may ruin the juice IME. If you have to have it, I would do a test batch with 0.5% banana.

Let us know how it turns out...

    Looks like a strawberry/banana pudding.

    Make sure to produce a small batch incase it doesn't work out, though, it looks like you have some good flavors there.

    I'm getting ready to use Strawberry Ripe for my first Crunch Berry recipe.

    I would mix up a bunch of stand alone flavors and then do some tank mixes to see how the flavors work together. Accomplish two things at the same time. Determine how each flavor tastes alone and then be able to mix the tastes to suit your liking. Work on the percentages from that point instead of trying to make them work all together at one time.

    Just a suggestion for how I go about making an untested never before flavor creation.

    A good way to get a feel for how it's going to come out is to use some water in a shot glass. Just use a pipette full of water and put it in a shot glass. Then add drops of flavor into it, mix and see what it tastes like. So for your recipe try a drop for each 2% (approx). You'll find out quickly if one flavor overpowers the rest. This is an easy way to work out the ratios and make adjustments to what works for you. Use the same amount of water each time you try it.

    I loved Good Life Cosmic Crunch, and HHV Crunch Punch was okay. I always was a fan of some sort of berry waffles from the beginning, but Cap'n Crunch Crunch Berries is one of those flavors embedded from childhood.

    I seem to have misplaced the exact recipe, but I think it called for
    Berry Crunch TFA 3%
    Strawberry Ripe TFA 3%
    Dairy/Milk TFA 1.5%

    If I can't find the recipe, then I will go with these percentages.

    These might be added later to see what happens:
    AP .5% (for graininess, maybe)
    EM 1% ( because, why not?)
    Meringue 1% (because I have have it)

    The TFA Berry Crunch is suppose to be a good single flavor, but I've read that adding the Strawberry Ripe gives it that extra kick; along with the milk.

    So, I might make the stand alone flavor and the combined recipe to see which is better.

    I find that the TFA Banana Ripe is definitely very "knock your socks off" potent, but the TFA Banana isn't nearly as strong. However, the TFA Banana Cream (or the DX verison) is my absolute favorite "Banana" version to use.

    I use it to make a clone of a local vape shop's NannerBerry that I vaped for 2+ years. I make it for myself and a neighbor who also used to vape the shop's version. Now...we both prefer my clone!

    TFA DX Banana Cream - 6%
    TFA Strawberry Ripe - 6%
    TFA Strawberry - 3%
    TFA Cotton Candy - 1.5-2%
