I'm beginning to dislike TFA Pear. I've been trying to using it as a wettener but it seems to do the opposite.

Favorite Pear?

I have the TPA Pear as well. I feel pretty neutral about it. Several people here suggested getting the Molinberry Shake Up Pear for a more realistic flavor. It’s in my cart so I can’t review it yet.
Flavor Art Pear is good too
FA pear and TFA pear combined is a great pear for me. Juicy and not so sweet, both bring something to the table.
Did you try adding cactus? Pear also is great with dragon fruit.I'm beginning to dislike TFA Pear. I've been trying to using it as a wettener but it seems to do the opposite.

I have. I love Cactus. I have to be careful not to use too much. I think it definitely "wettens" more than Pear but I'm still looking for that tastiest one.
I can't be much help there I'm afraid, found a pear combo I enjoy. Do have RF VG steeping at home, need to give it a taste. Have you tried saline yet?I have. I love Cactus.

Not yet, I keep forgetting to. Is it usually just a few drops needed?
I haven't tried saline myself but trust those that use it. I can't remember % used. @IDJoel has a good post about using saline somewhere. Have thought about using some in a smallish 240ml base mix.
One or two drops in a 3mL tank is usually sufficient. If I am adding it to an entire recipe; I keep it to 1.5% or less.
Note: I personally use saline more as a "seasoning" (like I would use table salt on food), rather than to add perceived "moistness." It can also be helpful reining in certain "harsh" notes (esp. citrus). Though, I suppose, the trace amount of sodium might(?) be enough to trigger some folks salivary glands. And, therefore, lessen the "dry-mouth" feeling? I don't know; I'll have to pay more attention the next time I use it.
So if I were mixing my usual vg/dw base replace maybe 1% of dw with saline?One or two drops in a 3mL tank is usually sufficient. If I am adding it to an entire recipe; I keep it to 1.5% or less.

Sounds reasonable; though I am not sure about committing 240mL of base without trying it first.
I can't think of anything (in my own personal mixing) that it has made "worse." But, I don't use it in every mix either. I kind of religate it to the same class of additives as MTS Vape Wizard, and EM. It is a "final thought" ingredient. The recipe is good; but there is still just a "little something" that is missing.I would not be surprised if it couldn't/wouldn't help more recipes than what I have tried it in. But, I am not sure I would be ready to commit a whole batch of unflavored base, to its use either.
Thanks, maybe just a couple 15ml testers.Sounds reasonable; though I am not sure about committing 240mL of base without trying it first.

Much better idea... at least until you see if it is something you want to use on a regular basis.
I don't know; maybe it is the ultimate DIYer's panacea. But, if it is, I am a little surprised no one has discovered it yet.
I would (personally) need some serious, significant, and voluminous, side-by-side testing... to convince myself of that.That said; I have found it can add an interesting/different dimension to fruits, nuts, caramels, and chocolates.
Molinberry Shape Up Pear is perfection!
- Shape-Up Pear
Tested at 2%. Juicy and sweet and authentic pear flavor. This is what INW used to be before the reformulation. It will round out FA Pear in a pear dominate mix and will add juicy sweetness to apple mixes. Fresh! Smooth and sweet and fleshy, this is a great representation of a fresh pear! The overall flavor is very natural tasting, you can taste the fruit pulp and a little bit of the pear skin as well. .5% will add juiciness to a dry mix, 5-8% in a pear dominate mix.
