( all sitting in a row, eating popcorn, waiting in real-time for a watered down result - - Don't have to age that. )

If it works, I have some malted milk someone can have.......

Gunna have to wait for me to clean atties, unfortunately. I only have 3 (I mostly use cartos).

Two of them have extremely contradictory flavors, and the one I used the English Toffee in, I just can't get the taste out. I vaped unflavored PG through it for 20 minutes and then Tiramisu in it for like an hour and still, the flaming cardboard undertone would not go away. I'm going to have to give it a full alcy bath.

I'm a DIY newb,but did you let it age? I made some butterscotch the other day and had the exact same reaction. I'm hardheaded though and didn't want to give up just yet,so I took the dropper off and let it sit for 2 days. Today was day three and the taste was much much improved. Still not great,but not so bad I can't/won't vape it

That's something I've been wondering about: what's the conventional wisdom on the cap on/cap off option for aging? I have very limited experience so far--two faint-tasting single flavor creations (pineapple & strawberry, 15%), neither of which seemed much different after 48 hours. I left the cap off for the first 24, then capped them for the remainder.

I've spiked the pineapple with three drops of EZ-Sweet, which helped some (I have the taste buds of a six year-old).

For me, it seems like leaving the cap off speeds up the process. A day of cap off is about equal to 4 days of cap on.

is EZ Sweet sucrolose?

is EZ Sweet sucrolose?

Uh, let's see...yes. It's sucralose. It's a 5ml bottle equivalent to "2.4 LBS SUGAR."

You didn't mention if your mix is all PG? Some of PA flavors have been known to be a bit 'perfumey" and the scent has "bled" into the flavor. I leave the cap off their flavors for a day or so before I mix them. I'd try leaving the cap off for a few days before adding any water. Also, if you don't use VG, you might want to add some (up to 20%) especially if your mix is all PG and you'll add sweetness and volumes of vapor in one shot.

i am an old long time smoker and I need unbelievably strong flavors to vape, normally at least 40% flavoring - but the English Toffee I got from PA is one of my favorites - and to me, it taste just like English Toffee candy. Now I love clove - but the clove I got from Tasty Vapors made me sick. One thing that hits me, is PA and TV are both fairly small and probably make things up in fairly small batches with out a lot of quality control. It seem perfectly logical at times they accidentally add too much of one chemical or another and a flavor that is normally OK becomes a killer. If you are up to it, you might inform her what it taste like, and see what she says.
