I'm getting antsy waiting for the gear to arrive, smoking twice as much because I keep thinking about it! I ordered a bunch of flavors from a few places to experiment with- mostly fruits and such, but also a few odd ones.
The least weird is probably that I want to get the flavor of the Voodoo Donut maple bacon bar... so I ordered bacon, maple, and bavarian creme thinking that might give it a doughnutty taste. The real life ones are way better than they sound. I wonder if I might have to add extra vanilla or something.
I'm also a mushroom lover, and pick wild ones every chance I get, so I ordered both "Mushroom porcino", and "Black truffle". I expect the truffle flavor to be pretty true to life since most truffle oils are actually artificially flavored, very curious to see how that works, and have no clue what Porcini flavor might be like. I've only had real ones that I picked myself. I have no clue what I might blend either one with LOL. I might try a tiny hint of apricot and pepper with the porcini to try for a fresh chanterelle flavor. If they don't work well with vaping, then I have food flavoring.
Any other ideas for mushroomy stuff?
Thinking out loud, I wish there were food grade evergreen tree flavors. I'd love to have something like the Douglas fir used in local vodka... might have to try making that myself... some other evergreens might run into toxicity issues or be like turpentine when vaporized I guess. I haven't seen eucalyptus either, but I know it can be inhaled in small amounts, I love the steam rooms that add it. I think I'll try a little extra-diluted tincture of the oil.
I'm getting Flavour Art Gin, hoping that has a nice juniper flavor. Has anyone tried it? Some gins have other flavors added like citrus and cardamom too, not sure what this will be like. I might try steeping juniper berries in PG. If I could add a tiny bit of lime oil in alcohol, and a hint of something bitter like quinine it could taste like my favorite beverage
The rest of them are far less weird, maybe I should post a list in the DIY juice forum when I can post there to ask for inspiration.
