I told Linda that I would give some public feedback on whatever I have available to me, so my first review will be on Banana Cream flavour ...

The liquid is clear in colour. It has a smell of ripe, maybe even overripe, peeled banana. Firstly, I tried it at 3.7v on a 510. It was comparable to vaping on one of those foam candy bananas. A more 'animated' taste than the fruit. I thought it needed something with it as it had no lasting substance on it's own. So I pulled out a bottle of Liberty Flights Chocolate Cream e-liquid and added 1ml to the 5ml of banana flavour. What can I say, it now tastes like a chocolate covered foam candy banana. It has more substance now though, something it was missing before.
I then switched the 510 atty to my SB and tried it at 6v. Much better taste, a lot nicer. More oomph, and more depth. It still has a candy overtone but it is much more a pleasure to vape.
My opinion is that it will make a nice flavour to make banana flavour combos, as on it's own it is a little like the foam candy. I can think of lots of '(add flavour here) banana' flavours that this could easily be a part of.

How much nicotine or VG/PG did you add? PA sells mixing flavors to make e-juice. Did I miss something? Your DIY juice should only be about 10-30% of the PA flavoring. I also mix my own juices and use both type of the carmels and many others to mix with.

With some practice you'll get the correct mix to vape. Try any of the juice calculators available like :

I am using 1ml flavour with 4ml of 24mg PG/VG (60/40) to make 5ml, and I will do that for all of the reviews.
I tried to emulate the % that most use around here to make the reviews relevant ;)

If you use Dan's calculator you can save your recipes for resuse and experimentation and his is much more accurate as it shows the results in drops to mix as little as 1ml for one flavor or 3ml for three (when using three flavors the smallest flavor will show no drops on a 1ml recipe is why I'm being specific about that).

Here's how:

Unprotect the Recipe sheet from Tools/Protection and add your recipe to the sheet. Go back to fill out Section 1. Next go to the bottom of section 6 and use the dropdown and choose your recipe and also read there the ml or drops needed to make the recipe. Peice of cake. You can see how the calculator works by changing the amount to be made in secton one and it will change the number of drops in bottom of section 6 accordingly. You don't need to do anything to the top of section 6 at all.

If you want to change the recipe you can write it down or just copy and paste a line or make a new line under the old one on the Recipe tab and name it like 2nd Blueberry Cream or such and change the percentages.

Hope this helps!

:)

I tried the cola today, at 10% flavour, 0% nic, and it tastes like cola. Well, flat cola. But I didn't expect there to be any CO2 in there so that was expected. It tastes a lot like those gummy cola bottle sweets. I suspect that i'll use this as a mixer (no, not with vodka!) namely to make a cherry cola or vanilla cola flavour. Flavour is just right, although to satisfy my taste buds I will add a little sweetener. I might go up to 12% too, but that should do it. The taste is definitely right.
