What do you find to be the difference between these two? They're both along the Pina Colada type of flavor right? Does Afternoon Delight have bananas and the other doesn't? Which do you like better?



I get more banana out of the Afternoon Delight. I get more Pineapple/Coconut out of the Ocean Breeze. Both are really good after 7 - 10 days of steeping. Even better after that.



I just got my order yesterday. I've steeped them overnight but I guess they need more? Some of the flavor isn't strong enough and I'm not getting good vape yet. I ordered 80/20. Is that the problem? I'm still trying to figure all of this out.



I would give it 7 - 10 days and you will be one VERY happy camper. However, I enjoyed my flavors as early as 3 -4 days as well. They just got better with time. Hope that helps.



So PINEAPPLE UPSIDEDOWN CAKE....

I know several of you out here are fans of this flavor, but for me, the Pineapple never really blossomed and it doesn't taste like I expect it should. I'm getting more of a (grrr I can't find the right words to describe it) flavor instead. There might be a little bit of cake there, but it's definitely not strong enough. I almost want to say it's an artificial fruit flavor which tastes sorta like pineapple but could be so many other things... if that makes any sense.



I'm going to have to agree with you on this. I mainly get the Cherry. It's still a great vape though, just a fruity flavor instead of cake. I'm thinking of ordering just the Cake and doing a little mixing of the two to see what happens.

So, I ordered 18mg nic from MBV, since 12 was not really doing it for me....but I also just received my first RBA (Smoktech RSST). I wish I had known earlier that RBA's greatly increase the throat hit and users tend to lower nic levels. :oops:

I figured i'd order some 0mg of the same juice I got from MBV and just mix it in to lower the nic levels.

Question though, I initially ordered 80/20 PG/VG, would it be a big issue if i ordered the 0mg nic with a lower PG/VG ratio and mix it in?

It will mix fine. Just shake the dog out of it.

This is a 65/35 mix with 6mg nic and +1 flavor shot and a mix date of May 2, 2013. I've done the steeping process with it (caps off, lots of shaking) and even decided to throw it in my ultrasonic for a good 40 minutes last night to see if that'd help it along but it didn't seem to make a difference. Maybe this be a case where the extra flavor shot actually detracted from, rather than enhanced, the original flavor?

I've vaped it primarily out of cartos attached to my SI Volt cig-a-like, mostly because it never earned a place in one of my tanks, but I decided to try it in my Kanger Protank this morning anyway, after last night's bath in the ultrasonic, and though I have tried adjusting the voltage on my Sigelei mod, I'm still not getting any Pineapple Upsidedown Cake flavor from it no matter what I vape it at. :\ Any suggestions from fans of this flavor?
I'm happy to see I'm not the only one who dislikes it, but my husband likes and he dislikes cinnamon roll (my favorite). I guess not everyone has the same taste buds,

Great Vape mail this week. Finally some time to check out some new stuff. Rinse out my brand new Pro tank and load it up for my first taste of Hawk sauce. Took a big ole vape and cough up just little. Yea, I guess it has a "hint" of menthol:D I ordered 100pg with one flavor shot at 2.4mg and cut it 3 to 1 with pure VG for approx. 75/25 at 1.8. It is defiantly a new experience in my short vaping history. I get the feeling that it will chill out some with some steeping.

On the pro tank. Have to say I didn't like it out of the box. Luckily I had heard of it's airy disposition and had ordered the an air flow controller. Slap on that little ring and tighten it down, Ahhh there we go. Much better. I think I might like this. I'm running a 1.8 ohm coil.

Has any one else given the caramel apple a try? To me I get a lot of green apple and not a lot of caramel at all. Again, we shall see what some time will do.

I'm not even touching the Afternoon Delight until has some time. I really want to like it so I don't have to hate Ms.CChair for recommending it for me. :D

Time to stop typing and start vaping ! :vapor:

Just got Caramel Apple the other day and I have the opposite problem. Mostly caramel with slight green apple. My juice is 50/50 with 1 shot. Over the past few days the apple is coming out more so letting it steep a bit more. I must say even how it is I like it.

Tucson, it's a dry heat
OK, order #4 - Whomever recommended the Whipped Cream as an additive to other juices was SO right!! Sorry, I will need to scroll back a lot to find out who said that originally. Anyway, I added a little squirt to my Five Pawns Grandmaster and now it is an awesome dessert vape. I seriously think I have vapor tongue, so it needed that extra oomph. I may have to get an extra bottle of Whipped Cream with double shots.

I also got Graham Cracker (to supplement my Dorky Stud), Sweetener (before I knew about the Stevia!), Blue Moo, and a big girl bottle o'Butterscotch. The surprise freebie was Big Red Soda. I don't think I'm going to like that one, so it may hit the trades along with some other stuff (Ahlusion - Vurley - GAG!)

And Capt.shay - you could never hate me :2cool: Unless you're my ex-husband :laugh:

EDIT: It's Ms Computer Teacher - not Ms. Computer Chair (though you had me rolling at that one!)

OK, BigBaby = that screen still makes you look like you're throwin' a sign. You sure you aren't hanging with the Stricknyne people ("Juggalo Juice" ::eyeroll:: )

Haha, but other 2 images I have to choose from are worse!

No signs here, those are the twinkle fingers of juice description.

Loving the speed steeping option in my ultrasonic. Cutting steep time down from 2 weeks to 2 days! I haven't tested all my flavors yet but so far, it's done the job on nearly all the ones I've done. I've got my MBV stuff in there now (day 2, 60-ish minutes, though it's a bit off and on since the time stops the unit every 3 minutes and I have to go turn it back on, so sometimes the water has a bit of time to cool down in between if I can't get back to it right away.

In any case, I'll be testing my Caramel Apple in just a few minutes, and I'll get back atcha...

*cue jeopardy music here*

Okay, I'm back! :2cool: Here's my consensus. At 8W (approx 4.7v on my 2.8 atty) I'm not really tasting the caramel at all, it's all apple. Brought it down to 6W (4.1v on a 2.8 atty) and I'm getting more of the caramel along with the apple. It's not a really strong caramel and I think the apple still dominates, but it's a lot more balanced than at the higher temp. If you want it a bit more carmel-ly, I wonder if this would mix well with a little butterscotch to enhance the caramel flavor a bit? I think someone else in this thread did something like this, no? Possibly it was the Cinnamon Bun it was mixed with. I could see that making a nice Cinnamon Apple Pie type of flavor... :p

Overall, a pretty tasty vape. I can see me vaping this at different temps depending on whether I'm in the mood for a more fruity refreshing vape or a more carmel-ly bakery one.

Oh and by the way, my juice is 65/35 +1 flavor shot.
