Going nuts

[calan]

Looking for some recommendations on a good flavor for adding some "nuttiness" to a mix. I'm not talking about distinct nut flavors (like pecan, black walnut, almond, etc.), but rather a generic nut flavor that will add that earthy, woody type of vibe. Sort of like mixed nuts, but without any distinguishable single nut flavor.

Clear as mud?

Acetyl Pyrazine [spelling?]

Good stuff.

try a quarter to half percent of Acetyl Pyrazine (5% solution) or Trimethyl Pyrazine (10% solution) if you are feeling creative. or you could always go with FA Mixed Nut

ps Acetyl Pyrazine by itself at about 5% is an interesting vape, tastes kinda like Fritos, even has slight salty notes.

Hmmm... I've seen Acetyl Pyrazine mentioned several times, but for some reason I've been associating it with the custard bad guy molecule.

What is a good source for it?

has nothing to do with diacetyl
Acetyl Pyrazine usually comes from TFA, wizard labs caries it. TFA Toasted almond mixed with there Peanut Butter becomes a very nice nut blend as well.

Yeah I know. My brain just quietly tied them together until I actually paid attention to it in this thread.

I have used peanut butter to do this in the past, but I'm looking for something else. I'll give the AP a try; thanks for the suggestions!

Do you have a recipe for this mix? That sounds epic.....

I've used the peanut butter before, and it does add some nuttiness.

I tried a couple drops of toasted almond in some tobacco mixes this weekend, and it REALLY added some dryness. It didn't change the flavor much, but really dried it out. This one goes in my toolbox for sure.

FA Nut Mix. For me, the rest pale in comparison. Most of my tobaccos are made with a varying amount of "nutty". This is the best. 2-3%. I also have a pistachio that's not bad (i think it's FA). Needs at least 3% to come out, and needs a couple weeks. Even then it's rather subtle

Is the AP from Wizard Labs already a 5% solution or do you dilute it to 5% in PG/VG?

It's already a 5% solution no need to delute it. Use sparingly at no more then 1%.

Good tobacco's to use it in are RY4's and 555's. About .5 - 1% in 555's as 555's have some in it already

Have you tried TFA Hazelnut Praline? To me it has a sweet taste with a teeny tiny hint of nut to it. However you might taste more of the nut flavor in it than I did. Either way its a good addition to mixes.
