Debb, what brand is your coconut? I must have missed it...no telling how many pages back lol. I use Flavour Art coconut in my every day mix and love it. I tried the Capella coconut and I don't like it in a vape mix, but love it in my iced coffee so at least it won't go to waste! I haven't tried any of the others.

Fran, I have one pyrex tank (one of Moorea's) for anything that might not like the polycarb ones. I have one of the M1A1's and 2 liquitators ;) You have me really curious about your Hazelnut Coffee. I'm still not finding fruit vapes that I like either...it's not the flavors tho, it's me.

OK I put a little pear in my tank. Didn't work for me. Vaped it down and added peach......no go............changed carto and went with orange...............so-so .................added cream..........no go............added vanilla and now it was vapable to too much like a dessert vape for my tastes. Added the little bit rest of orange and some better.GRRRRRRRRRR

Fran, I have not tried the Express Pear but, I really love the FA.

Be careful with that ecto. or anything flavor west. They are not that strong and I had a buddy who made a few mixes and that stuff was so toxic it actually ate the delrin in his tank. He got on cam and it was like hot tar. Im not sure if ecto has any citrus in it or not though.

I have a few of thier tobacco's and why they were decent they all took like 20% and they all had a weird aftertaste no matter what % I mixed them at. Wish more did a ecto as it seems popular. Not trying to rain on your parade and hope its good for ya but wanted to give a heads up if you use delrin tanks or stuff like that.

The Ecto is very strong unlike most other FW flavors. I am really liking it a lot. Not really toxic lol most citrus type flavors contain triacetin and do not play well with certain types of plastic. It is a chemical reaction between the two :)

    I never tried many FA flavors. Bought a ton of TPA when I first started DIY. Largely a waste of money I found out. LOL. I do like the FA Lime Tahiti however. Fruits don't seem to work for me except for Blackberry and citrus. I'm happy anyway. I finally found a good coffee flavor to make my Hazelnut Coffee and I found tobacco's for hubby (and me). So now I can DIY all our juice.

    I did extract my own coffee a couple of months ago but I don't remember why I didn't like it. Probably used too much as usual LOL! I may have to revisit it, when I was still buying pre made juice my all time favorite was Ms. T's Snickerdoodle Coffee.

    Experimenting is going on the back shelf for awhile for me. I have car taxes, tags, and insurance due by the end of the month :unsure:

    I have used FW flavors before. I found I had to use more than 15% to even taste a slight hint. The gummy bear, havana was acceptable. I ended up re-homing all of the flavors.

    Ooh, I love the Gummy Bears, Wild Cherry, Fruit Stripe Gum and Sugar Cookie and now Ecto all at about 10% Some FW flavors are weak but, these are not some of the weak ones IMO.

    I like a lot of FA flavors. I find that they hold up better and get so much better with steeping.
    The citrus type fruits have more TH to me and I prefer them too.

    I do not like FA tobaccos lol

    Well I finally mixed the two flavors Chinese clove/tobacco (Gudang Garam) flavor and the cohiba. So far the Cohiba is the same as the RTS version. The clove smell is very strong. I am waiting to taste test that flavor.
    Well I am finally doing a preliminary taste test with the Gudang Garem. I have taste tested quite a few dekang clove menthols and other vendors. Right now it beats the heck out of TPA clove. It is a smooth clove. Right now the clove is more prominent than the tobacco. I do taste tobacco upon exhale. Lightly as of now. I am hoping the clove will lessen and tobacco shine just a touch. Right now I am enjoying this very much.

    I wouldn't want a stronger flavor than this clove/tobacco. I know that a few clove/tobaccos on on the menu at Flavorexpreess. I will get back to this flavor in about a week. I am going to vape the 2mls I placed in a Vivi nova tank. I am also testing out this new head 2.8ohms. This one better not burn my liquid...or else! I have it set at 4.3.

    Do we not notice on purpose? I ordered from ECX last week and the next day I discovered I was almost out of peppermint. So I ordered the peppermint along with extra bottles of my favorites. I got order #1 already and order#2 should have been here yesterday according to tracking but it's late. Last night I discovered I'm out of Menthol. Here we go again.

    Of course! Subconsciously it makes it so much easier to place a flavoring order when we actually need something lol
