Ok another silly question on the reason for this thread. Is the Frenilla really sweet? The reason I ask is I think I need something really sweet as I am a sugarholic and looking for that something to ease the tension of not smoking a real cigarette. I know that it is the nicotine we are addicted to but there are other things about a cigarette that are just....comforting! If it isn't too sweet, will adding maybe a drop or two of a marshmallow flavoring in a 15 ml bottle going to hurt it? I don't like artificial sweeteners as they leave a very bad taste in my mouth. I don't drink diet soda or eat anything diet with artificial sweeteners and the "natural" sweeteners also taste bad to me. Just wondering.

On the sweet scale - maybe a 6-7-8 out of 10?

Ok now I can't wait to try this stuff! Once I get it, it seems that I have to let it steep for a week or maybe longer. I will look into getting the iTaste VV V 3.0. Maybe not right away though. Hopefully I can still enjoy it with my current set up.

We're pre-steeping it proper for 2 weeks pre-release, plus a minimum of 2-days in transit, so it'll have a decent steep on it when it arrives... but it's a deep steep liquid. I just cracked a bottle from January that is to die for.

Thanks :) ...but I meant the upcoming versions of Frenilla ....how about that one? :drool: :laugh:

Frenilla is going to be made in 50/50. The reason is, the Frenilla is so extract intensive, we can't commit extra flavoring to MAXVG NZ. It takes about 50% more flavoring to make it 'pop' - we would rather do 6 bottles of NZ instead of 4.

If I wanted to maybe sweeten it a bit more, what would you suggest using? I do have a marshmallow flavoring that I bought for that very purpose if something wasn't sweet enough for my tastes! If you slap my hand and tell me NOT to touch it, then I understand! ;)

You'll be able to tell in a couple of weeks ;) and Clark I imagine would be fine with doing whatever you want with your juice! :thumb:

You could use virtually any sweetener you have - Stevia works very well.

Can you divulge what sweetener you normally use for your concoctions? If not I understand. I have tried Stevia in the past with food and it also left an icky taste in my mouth. I prefer pure cane sugar. In fact, I am glad that the major soda manufacturers have decided to re-release their sodas with cane sugar and market them as the originals. YUM!!!

Be careful with that Stevia.....

We use a proprietary blend of 4 different sweeteners so I can't really share - that's part of the magic!~

*scratches head.....thinks....* 1-Clark's sweet nature, 2-Katy's ability to sweetly snap the flavors in line, 3- forty bazillion pounds of Zotz, 4-a drop from that dusty bottle in a corner bought by Abi from a mysterious fellow at a ren fair.


Yes, that, do that and it will be perfect :thumb:

And here I thought that mysterious bottle came from China Town in a place guarded by a Mogwai of stripped appearance and suspicious character. Good to know the truth!

Since this was the thread that I used to say I bought an iTaste VV V 3.0, I will now update that. I received it today, used it about 5 minutes and then it died. I tried to charge it but the lights are just flashing. I think it is broken. I have contacted the vendor I bought it from. I am not happy right now. I spent more money on this thing to help with the taste of liquids and I get a defective battery.

The lights flash when the battery id low or after a charge. After a charge I sometimes need to restart it. Just hit the button 3 times (or is it 4 ?) and it should turn green.

Also, after the battery dies and you plug it in, you need to wait until the light turns green to be able to use it again in pass-through mode. Might need to unplug/replug it.

Basically, every time it starts flashing or not working, I hit the button three times to turn it off / on.
