Dax my strawberry shortcake actually intensified in flavor after about a 2-4 weeks. I find that when my flavor taste muted I put a new atty on my tank after a thorough cleaning. Seems to bring everything back to a fresh taste.
Get one of these...they're awesome:

HERE is the UC I've been using for the past month or so. Good price, good warranty, works perfectly on 30-minute cycles. I run all my non-tobacco DIY through 2 cycles and tobaccos through 4 and it's like a week and two weeks respectively. Just put lukewarm water in to start and you're good to go. Don't use hot water, the unit's action heats it up and keeps it hot. Got all my gf's jewelry cleaned up too!

opal, have you looked at Velvet Cloud's Pillow Mints? Sounds right up your alley.

In other news: WAFFLE! I can't stop vaping the MBV waffle! I've got a great variety of 7 awesome juices sitting in front of me and I'm constantly reaching for the stupid waffle! It's like a plain buttered waffle, though, not exactly what I was expecting. No maple to speak of. It's sweet and buttery with a slight bakery note. I'm mixing the DIY version at 18%. Getting an urge to put something fruity in there and see what happens, but it's just so dang good on its own I don't know if I should bother...

I haven't heard of this happening at 2 weeks, nor have I experienced it. Do you store your juices in a cool dark place? I've never been advised to store mine in the fridge so can't comment on that. One thing I do is shake my juices a LOT, especially right before filling a tank or clearo. The flavors can separate. I have around 30 bottles of MBV flavors, some have been in the box for close to 2 months and still taste great, in fact, many have only improved with time and steeping. The delivery device you use may be muting your flavors or something of that nature. Hope you get the right answer because this is such a great company with awesome juice! I'm sure someone will come along who can give you a better answer.

Vapor tongue?

Drink lots and lots of water.

My 2 month old juices keep getting richer and fuller.

Maybe I should try waffle, seems I only like cinnamon roll cause of the bakery note.

I think one of the reasons I've been so hung up on it the past few days is that it's one of those mystifying flavors that tastes like something else that I can't quite get my finger (tongue) on. I suppose it might taste like a waffle, if the genuine article could be vaporized, but to me it's more like one of those tinned Danish butter cookies with the huge granules of sugar on them that I invariably receive as a Christmas gift from someone every year. NOT a bad thing. At any rate, I like it, so at least the jury's in on that verdict!

Anyone here have experience with "White Wine"? They sent me a free bottle of it along with the juices i ordered :D

I have blueberry, peach rings, and ecto cooler in different tanks. I love all of the flavors! Thumbs up MBV!

I got White Wine with my order too, I tried it... it tastes a lot like white wine... too bad I hate white wine ><

as far as the UCs listed in the last couple pages, both look good, and have decent sized tanks... I went cheaper on mine (about 1/2 price) ... it was advertised as having a 30 min cycle, but in reality it has a 900 second cycle, which is 15 minutes by my math, not 30.

I hate it when that happens!! Have you ever added actual 'butter cream' flavor to the mix?? I love those butter cream mints so I really hope you hit it one of these times and share!!!

yep.. tried butter cream.. with candycane.. wintergreen.. spearmint... extreme ice (not all at the same time) in various combinations.. with sweetener.. without.. mint is a powerful ingredient.. one drop in a T3 mini can change the whole flavor. I've also tried it with sweet cream.. whipped cream and bavarian cream.. tried with cotton candy.. tried with marshmallow (very wrong on that one) tried with the various vanillas also.. don't have vanilla ice cream yet so that might still be an option.

I came across a VG one at Virgin Vapor, but I haven't tried it. If I had to guess a recipe, then maybe butter cream, sweetener, and some candy cane.

bought it.. still have most of it.. just a clue there ;)

I've read a bunch of recipes for the actual mints and they're mostly sugar and peppermint flavoring.. some have cream of tarter-- there were a couple with egg white - hence my try with marshmallow.. way too herby for this application and of course pastel coloring.
I was so sure it was going to be something with the whipped cream.. due to that fluffy feeling.. maybe I just don't have the right combo yet.

and now that I look, there are TWO OF THEM! arghghghg pastel mints and butter mints..
found here RICHARDSONBRANDS.COM
click on soft mints

My juices are getting muted in flavor :-( right after steeping they were full flavored now after 2 weeks vaping them i notice they have start to down the flavor my cherry limade and my strawberry shortcake does not have the full flavor as 2 weeks ago.. Any advice on how to keep them flavorful. I just put them into the refrigerator today to try avoid any mor lost of flavor.


You could order some of this Sweetener Electronic Cigarette Flavoring - Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes to help the flavor. As said in previous suggestions, you may want to store your flavors in a darkened place without any of the caps on. I really don't think anyone would suggest storing your juices in the fridge. It kind defeats the purpose of steeping.

I tested a couple of my new flavors, Thug Juice, Raspberry Lemonade and Whipped Cream. The Thug Juice has an amazing menthol kick to it which feels very good on my sore throat. And it tastes really yummy.

The whipped cream? I added it to a lot of other flavors.. Lord, I'm gonna need another bottle very soon! This stuff makes everything Divine. :nun:

The lemonade wasn't quite ready. It was a bit too bitter. So, I added some WC to that and Wow! Toned down the bitter and added a light sweet, creamy taste (only added a few drops). Together, they are delicious.

I still have quite a few to work through, but I know for sure I will be reordering the Whipped Cream and Thug Juice. They are both very much their 'own' category and must be a part of my flavor kit at all times.

I'll know more on the Raspberry Lemonade after it steeps a bit. Hope the bitter dies down just a tiny bit. If not, I'll just add a bit of WC and/or Sweetener to even it out for my taste buds.

As usual, I'm very happy with my order from MBV.

You may want to consider the nicotine level. I've had too many nic headaches because I was vaping too high of a level of nic. I went from 24mg to 12mg on the next order I am going to make with MBV. There are several threads that can help you with that. I finding that the 24mg liquid helps me out when I wake up and the 12mg helps me when I'm winding down for the day (considering going down to 6mg). I've been vaping only around 2ml a day tops for around 6 weeks now.

I would suggest cutting the nic level in half. If you are trying to switch from analogs to vaping, it's not an easy process. I still am smoking around 5 a day which is much better than the 20 a day I was smoking before. I have learned that is better to avoid tobacco flavors and try to find the flavor that will help you replace it. I have yet to find that flavor yet, but the search is a lot of fun. Good Luck and have fun.

If you're getting a cold.. sinus thing at all.. most tastes are going to be dimmed. time to vape the unvapeable! or extreme ice, which cuts through most anything
