I have all of these! I'm going to give this one a shot! I'm looking for a good tobacco recipe to round out my DIY! Thanks for sharing!

It's a mellow Turkish vape with a hint of sweet. Hope you like it. After about a 72 hr steep, go for it; that's what I love about SC and HS tobaccos.

I am new to DIY but my first 2 batches were successes. Not familiar with these Super Concentrated flavors though.

I bought a Cohiba SC and mixed it at my regular 5% to start with to make a baseline for its flavor and it was OMG wicked strong, cut into 2.5% and still overpowering strong, cut again to 1.25% and its now a note that adds a crisp cigar bite to my HS tobac blends.

I use cohiba at 2% because I like strong tobacco taste. I would use less if combining with other tobaccos. 5% is really to much for most SC's. I would say 1% is a better starting point.

I just made a batch of LB Sweet Pipe Tobacco and I am dying to taste test it. I use the electric powered mixer and I believe it is speeding up the aging process. As soon as the e-Liquid clears it is ready to vape. Spin, settle and vape has worked out well so far. Future batches I will extend the aging process for comparison.

Im convinced it does! I use that battery powered milk frother for mine and after 3 frothing sessions (froth, wait till clear, froth again...) I swear it cuts aging time down a few of days!

Mix, Spin, rest and vape. I really mix it well before bottling. I have also found that heating it slightly to just under 100 degrees also speeds the clearing time. I run the bottle under hot tap water and check temperature of the bottles with an infrared temperature sensor rolling them around for just a couple of minutes.

Any suggestions for a good Vanilla Tobacco mix? I've started DIY now and I used to vape Alloy Blends Vented all the time - it was my favorite. Just a light tobacco with vanilla - no caramel or RY4 type taste. But it's actually the reason I started DIY - it clogged my tanks within a day and the frustration almost drove me back to cigarettes. I'd like to figure out what kind of tobacco base they used - Virginia, Turkish, etc? I have no clue. I don't like cigar-type tobaccos. Is Turkish a cigar-type tobacco? Anyone try the Inawera Vanilla Tobacco? Not the Vanilla Tobacco for Pipe...

I made a 30ML batch of the sweet pipe Tobacco but am mixing it with Buck Naked American to up the nicotine and get the taste I was used to. I am searching for a Tobacco but since I got into DIY the Tobacco and becoming a thing of the past like the Killer Sticks!

Good Luck and keep me updated!

Thanks for that info. That sounds good and I'll have to give it a try.

You might start with the Hangsen Red USA Mix for the tobacco part. To me it's a non cigar, non pipe, regular tobacco taste. As a straight tobacco, I find it to be too light for my taste but do use it for my RY4 mix.

As to the vanilla, they're really all over the map. For a "real" vanilla taste, use bourbon vanilla. Probably at .5% to start with. It does require a good long steep (3-5 weeks) for it to fully develop. Many like TFA Vanilla Swirl. It's good at first mix and gets better with age. It has more of a cream/custard vanilla taste.

If you get the Ina Vanilla Tobacco, please let us know what you think of it.

This, couldn't agree more. Or Hangsen Virginia, personally I like Red USA a bit more but it's what I first started vaping years ago.

FWIW, I consider cigar to be "regular" tobacco taste. It's the medium that offers pure tobacco without additives. Cigarettes aren't "real" tobacco taste. They're tobacco with ... stuff.

I have to agree for a true american cig hangsen red USA is good. For more true tobacco kick add some virginia or rustica TA. I've been also adding some american virginia NET as well that is if your into extracting your own NETS..

I add the Rustica (Thanks Danny!) to all (what few I like) of my tobacco's, including my RY4 mix. Also vape it alone once in a while.

Sadly, I don't have the time to do my own NETS (although I have thought about it). Maybe after I win the lotto. ;)
