Chemist of Chef to make the best e-liquid

[Dellamorte]

What do you guys think, is it more the Chemist or the Chef that makes the best e-liquid?

Or a combination of the two?

I vote chef. A chemist may know the "best mix" of pg,veg and flavor to deliver a satisfying vape but it takes a chef mindset to find the right flavor combinations.

chef... in a true form will make the best juice

I think it's more of a palate/flavor thing. There's really no chemistry (nothing is changing it's physical properties), all mixing for flavors.

It's definitely the chemist who designs these flavors. There are flavors designed for flavoring food, and chemists that design flavors for vaping.

Im am kinda in between thoughts here, a true chef doesn't know anything about PG and VG, and mixing artificial flavors based on liquids instead of real ingredients. But then again, a chemist doesn't know anything about flavor pallets and mixing two sets of flavors into a new one..

That's when the chemist hires taste testers. Inawera Shop, The Best E-Liquids, Flavours, Bases And Many More!

It is possible that a chemist would be better.. but a chemist good enough to recreate specific experiences from taste is likely doing something far more lucrative than selling liquid.. neuroscience pays a lot more.

The pg VG stuff is easy to learn though, a skill. I think the flavor stuff is more of a talent.

Now, the people who formulate the flavorings, yeah, that's more technical and, IMO, would require both the skill and the talent or a team with skill and talent.

Both. You need a chemist to make the base flavors one uses for mixing juices. How to combine those is more of an art, and here, the chef can make the difference. There are only a handful of companies that make our base flavorings, but as any vaper knows, how those flavorings are mixed makes all the difference.

I'll have to say they go hand in hand also. Chemist creates great flavors and a great vape chef knows how to put them together. Get a chemist with a great palate and you have the complete package.

 

[Dellamorte]

Alright, and what type of chemist we talking about? Bio-Chemist, Pharmaceutical-Chemist, Analytical-Chemist?

I'm trying to setup a profile for an investigation to either import liquids or sell own-made liquids.

Though, if we're selling our own liquid, it's gotta be top notch.

A little of both in one person.
The just-a-chemist might not CREATE a fantastic unique flavor.
A just-a-chef might not be able to RE-create it, or might not be able to tweak an initial recipe to adjust the vape and flavor delivery.

"Molecular gastronomy" in the e-liquid world ... why the hell not? Frankly, the whole thing about treating chefs like the Pope or a five-star general is all a bit silly to me, but entertaining. The Gordon Ramsey of e-juice! Iron Chef E-Cig! Topper Chef! I'd watch those Bravo shows.

I'd love to see an Iron Chef E-liquid!

So you'd say a Chemist or just a kid who has the talent?

A FLAVOR chemist. Yes, that's actually a specialty field of chemistry.

 

[JeremyR]

You can buy the flavorings the best chemists have made and be your own chef so to speak. The possibilities are endless.

Edit to add

Oh I get it you need some in your country... Many vendors just mix flavors they buy. Probably the easiest, that I do see many vendors do successfully, is hangsen flavor concentrates, especially tobacco flavors. Simple. There are Many flavoring manufacturers, Inwara is probably the closest supplier to you with quality flavorings. most all juice vendors use one of the many unless they are doing nets(naturally extracted tobaccos)

Flavor chemist to make the flavorings, but a chef to mix and make them palatable.
