Hi, from the UK.
Joined to peruse the mixology section- looking for an old Vanilla Custard recipe and hints on something new.
Don't know..I'm thinking Dragonfruit and ???

Been vaping since 2013, gave up smoking the same day and have never sparked up since.
Made my own juice most of that time, my go to ADV is a 70/30 GVC clone with a menthol/boysenberry DL backup

Gone from Provari & Kayfun to sub-tanks, drippers, squonkers- chased flavours and clouds
Haven't bought a new mod or atty for a good 4-5 years now, definitely a fan of Evolve & Steamcrave.
Curernt in-use setups are a Think Vape Finder & Hadron c/w Ragnars and a couple of Invader 3s with Aeronauts.

Getting near time for a new mod as the Hadron has been playing up..was never keen on the YiH board.
As triple 18650 mods are thin on the ground I'm tempted by another dual 21700- Odin 2... the 250C Bogan

Welcome, from Spain, to the ECF.

Forever RDA/squonker and RY4-ish DIY·er here (Hola!) , however I´m a single 18650 mech user, so I´ll leave the heavy lifting to some of the others.

If I remember correctly, GVC, when left to age/steep for a long period would "mature" and color change to black.
Never was a fan of the custards, black or otherwise. :)


Cheers
I

Hi
yeah GVC was steeped until it went almost black, iirc a 50/50 mix with higher nicotine levels.
Plenty of air time for the nicotine to oxidize and darken.
Had a few forgotten bottles of DIY testers in the cupboard that 'matured' ..err no.
My VC is often 8-9 months old by the time I get to the bottom of the jug but at 3mg the colour is more like golden syrup.

Never did get a taste for DIY tobacco flavours, tried plenty in the beginning when I was desparate to replace a OH roll-up, unfortunately all I got was the aftertaste and a hint of n-butyric acid from the creams.
