Think is with water its soluble but it leaves behind an oily like residue. Anyway, I think I'm giving up with local brands. Have tried LorAnn and it was really good. Did a small batch of Choc Hazelnut Bavarian Cream and oh boy, my mum was asking what cake I brought to her place...
@oscia care to share your recipe with us if you don't mind? sounds delicious!
I get what you mean when you mentioned oily like residue. i had the same problem the 1st time I did it, and I realised I made several mistakes:
1) I left it sitting on my desk (too close to my computer and exposed to the sun, not good!)
2) too much of flavouring (mixed it 40%)
now with 20% and mixed with PG AND daily shake, looks homogenous to me already

15% - Chocolate Hazelnut
15% - Bavarian Cream
70% - VG
Stevia/sweetener at your own preference
I have left my Konny Grape breathing for about a week and it seems homogeneous now. But there is a colour separation.
Flavoring wasn't super strong. It's balanced on flavor and cloud.
The Konny Grape no matter how much I shake and leave it to steep and breathe it just doesn't want to mix. It's been steeping for about 3 weeks now. Everyday shake at least twice. Later will post a pic of it.
try adding unflavoured PG? I did that with a new batch and the emulsion problem went away....

is it possible to tell if a flavor is oil-based from the ingredients on the bottle? I am starting to go into diy but don't really know which local flavor to start with.
Or is there a compiled list of all the usable local flavors? I tried searching here but didn't find any.

@Jyuz , do a water test. just take a glass of water and add a few drops of the flavour/ test sample. if it floats, then it's oil based. to be super doubly sure, feel free to stir a little (but not too much agitation). after a while, observe for any obvious separate layers. if there is, 101% says it's oil based.

@Jyuz sorry I think I've missed your question. from the bottle label, you won't tell. and then again, not all manufactures can bother to list down all the components exhaustively for your comfort. after all, they are meant for the kitchen.

with a little bit of reading in the forum, I'm pretty sure you can find some useful ones. I've done the same, if it is workable for a dimwit like me, it should be pretty easy for you too.[emoji1]

Any ideas on how to get the coldness flavor instead of menthol crystals? Tried menthol crystals but don't really like the taste of it.
Tasted up north flavors like the mango and 7up, they feel damn cold without the menthol taste.
Using it with my current STM and Billow V2 btw...

Thanks... I bought Koolada from an OZ site, shipment gone to HiSham. Damn angry cuz it doesn't even contain nicotine. Still looking for other options on lobang though..
