Trapped within my imagination
Hiya Jim, what do you lean toward? strong/mellow, sweeter, fruity, creamy?... sense right now my taste buds are still pretty much dead from tabacco use..I prefer strong, fruity or minty..I really like ( in order of preferecne) loranns cranberry, watermelon, blackberry..Add just a touch of mint to any of these mmmm...
I am still really wanting a cinnamon/spicey flavor... I tried the water soluble cinnamon in bickfors... couldnt even taste it...I do have high hopes for lorrans cinnamon roll..Ive heard it has a mild spicey undertone...I'm also going to try a clove e- liquid..We'll see. Surprisingly, I just received the peanut butter...wow smells wonderful ( havent vaped it yet) Has anyone else? What was your take on it? Now if only I could taste chocolate!

JUst an FYI..There is a whole thread didicated to homemade recipies on in this section.. I do believe its called DIY liqids... You should check that out. If you havent already.
........... Ivy

Jimson--Everyone is right on point here--Lorann and Bickford both have good products--Lorann lets you see the ingrediants besides being just water soluable. Stay away from the oils, any with coloring, "especally carmel color" as that is petroleum and Polysorbate 80---enjoy--Sun

Oh dear, this is the first I've seen about staying away from carmel color. Can you point me to the thread that discusses this topic? I thought I had read every thread and post about liquids and flavorings but I obviously missed some. 8-o

The issue with Caramel coloring is the fact that it is derived from corn syrup. The sugars would risk ...um... caramelizing in your atomizer. It's not a health issue. Well... no more than vaping any of this stuff is. As far as Polysorbate 80 is concerned... I've only found it in Root Beer flavor, and research has shown me that it is used in prescription inhalers, so I'm not worried about it's use.

To answer the OP's question... The most concentrated flavorings out there are the Lorann's Candy Oils. The name is a misnomer... most of the flavors do not contain oils. Some do, so check the item details for soluability in water. When folks around here talk about Lorann's, they are referring to the Candy Oils.

[edit] thought I'd add that even though I am the original poster of the caramel color issue, I still use the flavors that have it. To me, it's an acceptable risk. I've only killed 2 atomizers in 2 months, under pretty heavy usage. I think that's pretty normal and don't blame it on the coloring.

Hobson--a few weeks ago The Doctor's Show did a whole segment on food colorings and lambasted Carmel Coloring saying it is petrolium based and harmful as well as the additive polysorbate 80--I think you can watch the eposide on your Computer. They also said that many colorings cause an wide range of health issues---------- Sun
