That orange cinn coffee sounds great. So does that bananas foster!

Not to toot my own horn..........but the bananas foster is amazingly good; it's become an all day vape right now. It's good enough to be a commercial juice IMO. I mix it with a high VG % and it's a tasty fog machine.

I want to do it but it will have to wait just a bit since I will only have 1 of the 4 flavorings ;)

I am looking at the Scubabatdan's Calc and wow. I will have to play around because he has tabs for PG base, VG base, No Nice but the problem is my base is 50/50. But that shouldn't be too hard to overcome. I can use it's calculations and another one I found called the simple calculator and figure it all out.

I have one question, do you add any water/vodka/PGA?

Also noticed that his 'make a new recipe' section there isn't ripe banana listed. Not a biggie.

Just use the PG calculator and put in 50% VG.

For small batches, I use like maybe 3 or 4% PGA. I never use water.

Many thanks on both answers. From what I read water is good on high VG mixtures but since the highest I would ever go is probably 50/50 no worries there - plus I would rather get the TH that PGA/vodka would give.

One follow up - why PGA on only small batches?

I personally never use any of the above, and I generally use a 60-70% VG mix. Water especially, I swear when water is used, I can taste it...and don't like it.

Also, I believe the PGA/throat hit thing is BS. Doesn't make any difference as far as my tests showed.

Cuz that's all I usually ever make.:)

Really, I only do it out of habit. I have no idea if it increases throat hit or not. I have used a bit more when I made all VG mixes to thin them out a tad.

I made something I call "Fuzzy Navel". Nice in between vaping. I use:
83 drops of 36mg non flavored Nic Juice and bring it down to 15mg with:
85 drops of VG
18 drops of Orange flavoring
14 drops of Peach flavoring
I use my "eJuice Me Up" calculator which you can get at: eJuice Me Up - e-Juice e-Liquid Calculator
I have included several recipes. Recipe files can be traded and created. Adjust to taste.

Alright, since this got bumped, I'll share a concoction I came up with....
This is for Scubabatdan's Calc. I flavor at 20%.

Bananas Foster
TPA Ripe Banana 0.60 parts
TPA Jamaican Rum 1.00 parts
LorAnne ButterRum 0.70 parts
4 drops TPA Cinnamon (not the candy!) per 5mls.

You have to use the Ripe Banana, it's very strong and also a very good banana flavor. Not sure a banana creme would work at that level. Also, you can maybe use a cinnamon candy, but the normal TPA Cinnamon is perfect.

You also have to let this sit for 3 days. It was terrible when I first made it, and was still terrible the next day. I picked it up today and it's become very good now. Just needed the time for the strong Ripe Banana flavor to mellow in the mix.

I Just made this and it is Awesome!!!!
I used the PA Banana Cream (that is what I had) and a little less PA cinnamon and it turned out great.
Which flavors come out more after steeping? I like it now, just wondering if I need to add a little more Banana if it gets weaker after steeping.
Thanks for the recipe Bahnzo.

If you don't use the Ripe Banana (and I still recommend it over the banana creme...I've got and tried both), then you might not need to let it age. The Ripe Banana is very strong, so it takes a couple days to mix properly. Otherwise, it was very strong. I would guess the Creme wouldn't do that.

Overall it should be a nice banana flavor, with a bit of the butter rum and cinnamon showing through. I made another batch a few days ago and am just sampling it now. I just used butter rum instead of the butter run/jamaican mix and it's still pretty good..can't decide if it's any better/worse than the other version.
