I think you either love them, or hate them lol! I've been vaping the caramel cream for 2 years, it's a staple in my DIY cabinet. I evap the alcohol off because I don't like the hard throat hit. If the alcohol doesn't bother you, then just skip the evap :)

I pour it in a shallow bowl, nuke it just until it starts to bubble (around 15 seconds for a 1oz. bottle) and let it cool in the bowl before re bottling it.

While I am excited to see that ecig is branching out with more choices for us DIYers, something came to my attention AFTER I bought NF flavors (not from ecig). I hate that I wasted money on several of their flavors only to find this out after I got them. There are flavors from NF that contains trace amounts of diacetyl - their "buttery" flavors, "cream(y) flavors and caramel flavors. While NF has confirmed this, they won't reply to anyone's messages about it nor has it been confirmed how much. Would it be possible for you guys to clarify exactly which flavors this affects?

Anything with creamy or buttery note, just as you said Mimi. NF confirmed this with me over 2 years ago. Trace amounts...it is obviously up to each vaper to decide if they want to use any flavor that may contain diacetyl or it's related cousins.

I'm surprised that are not answering emails about this, I had no problem when I emailed them back when I first ordered from them.

Yes, we will definitely do that. We are waiting for the list as well. I will add a general warning now. Thank you

So they are fairly potent it seems.

I do notice some of them separate and need to be shaken before use. Not used to seeing that, but then again I've never experienced the natural organic line :)

Yes the first time. I mixed a sample batch at 10%, but I backed that down to 8%, and added FA Fresh Cream to a 30ml batch to steep. I hope you enjoy it!

Up until now the only flavor from NF that I used is the Caramel Cream, so I don't have experience with any of the other flavors. I've never noticed any separation, but I'm in the habit of shaking all of my flavor bottles before I mix.

This Chai is getting better as it steeps :) The sharp edges of the spices are mellowing, and the fresh cream in it is a good addition. I haven't tried the NF coconut I got...yet!

I tried the banana nut bread today at 10%. I'm not tasting the banana nut bread yet. I feel like if I go above 10% it may not be good at all. So I added 5% banana, and it got better.. but now the nut bread note is gone.

Will play around some more.

Has anyone tried banana nut bread and had any success?

Thanks :)

I bought about nine of these before you had them and I could only really get the coffee flavors to work well so far. Its frustrating because the smell is so perfect on these compared to some other brands- and then getting the percentage and steeping time correct is challenging. I think for me these are going to be add on flavors to other main flavors. The only thing I haven't tried is a super long steep of like a month. Its hard for me to get over the alcohol in these too as a high PG vaper. The high VG might work out better with them.

One other thing about NF flavors, some of them need to be kept refrigerated. These are the ones I know for sure per NF. That might be another question for NF to clarify which others need to be.:

English Toffee
Butterscotch
Vanilla
Kona Cream
Strawberry
Bavarian Cream

all the coffees too
