Coconut Trouble

[rbmayfield]

This is my first attempt at DIY liquid. I made coconut with FA drops. I started low, 2% and worked up to 6% 1 drop at a time. It still has VERY LITTLE flavor. After reading on here I'm afraid to put too much in it. So I was wondering if someone could please tell me if coconut is one of those flavors that requires steep time?
Thanks guys

they say 10% there. sounds about right as a stand alone flavor.

I normally use it with other things and it's noticeable but not overpowering.

I have LA coconut and I'm running into the same problem you are. I've got FA coconut on the way, but I don't have super high hopes for it.

Coconut is a pain in the backside, by the time it shows up its always musty for me, having a little success with tfa coconut candy though, maybe you could mix the 2 (not tried it myself yet)...

I have my FA coconut at 5% and it's plenty strong. It was very tasty when new and after a couple days it got smoother and silkier. Nice sweet and flavorful. I don't do drops in my mixing, I used a syringe.

Making Pure Coconut, to Me, is Difficult.

It needs to be Sweetened. And it Needs something else to give it some Body like Cream.

Add Coconut to Another Fruit Flavor though is Easier.

Well coconut is easy to mix, but that's only if were talking about actual coconut. To me, Inawera's coconut is the most realistic. Actual coconut is sort of wax-like.. sort of smells like a coconut crayon and tastes like that as well.

Coconut shavings on cakes, coconut creams, coconut mousse etc., those are different, very sweet. I don't have any suggestions for those types of coconuts, as I've never tried to achieve them.

FA coconut needs to steep for sure.

I make a great pina colada with FA Pineapple, FA coconut, and FA Rhum, which needs a long steep to have it be anything but PINEAPPLE

Inawera Coconut is okay, but it needs some Cream. Also Coconut is a subtle flavor and isn't going to give you Bam!
