Careful with the butter flavor. It might be diacetyl, and thus should NOT NOT NOT be vaped...can lead to lung damage (popcorn packer's disease). Check the ingredients. If it is not diacetyl you are likely good to go, although Loranns Butter flavor, which is not diacetyl, made me cough a lot. So I avoid that one too. Coughing, for me, is my throat and lungs telling me something is a problem.

To get popcorn lung, you need to inhale a lot of diacetyl. This article from Flavourart on the subject is worth reading.

Thanks. I didn't get that high (15%), I'll try it again and increase %.
I did it at 15% of MJ flavor in a no-nic 90% PG, 10% VG base.
It took quite awhile to get the taste to come through an atty that was being used on my Cuban cigar experiment. Put it in a freshly cleaned atty & it still took more than 5 draws for the flavor to start coming through but then it took over the atty.

This is a good read. I'd suggest it to everyone. These kind of questions should be stickyed, maybe it could advert some of the warning posts seen over & over again. But then again we all should be aware.
Thx 48lowes

Hehe

I had waited until my payday, today, to order it. I had waited for the Maple and Waffle too to use my Bacon and More Smokey Bacon (not on the site now). Here comes breakfast! :p

I bought another 20 flavors and got five more samples to go along with the 33 flavors and 3 samples I already had :rolleyes:

:D

From my experience with (TW) roast chicken, I'd suggest not spending very much on meat flavorings. The chicken was quite realistic but a few puffs were enough. While intellectually interesting, this experiment left me with an unusable atty and cart. I don't know if bacon will do this but a little chicken remained after cleaning the way menthol and strong cinnamon do.

Got my first order of flavors in today from PA....

The premixed tobacco blend is amazing! I added about 15 drops for 3 ml bottle ...this is probably going to be my all day vape..so mild yet smooth..Love it!

QUESTION: other flavors aren't sweet at all, are we suppose to add sweetner to all of them?


Wintergreen- reminds me of toothpaste, will have to work with this one
Choc/Mint- I can't taste the mint or chocolate ...might have to add a lot more drops and get back to you..

I will get back to you on my other ones soon.....

So many yummy flavorings now!

As far as sweeteners go... I use the EM whenever I want to add a bit of complexity and fullness to a taste, the sweetener when I want pure sweetness particularly with very light or crisp flavors, and the caramel whenever a yummy caramel flavor would complement.

I have more coming in the next day or two...but I'm so happy with the Tobacco blend I can't even explain...everyone has that "favorite vape" and I think I've found mine..but still looking foward to trying the others..I think I ordered EM too so maybe if I add that to the others it will make a difference...

I just got a bunch of stuff and am really enjoying what I've tried so far.

I got some tobacco absolute (2. diluted) but I have not mixed any yet. Any advice on a good way to mix this would be appreciated.

On my next order I will get the tobacco blend but thought I'd try this first

Thanks!

I think they tell you on the site how to mix it with the EM sweetner no? I hate having to mix any more than I need to, so I just ordered the blend..in fact I ordered more tonight so I can stock up..my hubby is even considering switching to vaping now and I ordered him a tornado...

Ya, I'm not too keen on the mint chocolate either.

It was a little stronger, but nothing to write home about. I also have the creme de menthe, which is a strong mint and the milk chocolate, which I haven't tried to mix up yet, but it seems it might be a better mix. I kinda gave up on doing one myself because I love Tasty Vapor's mint chocolate chip cookie so much.

I think its a little mild when mixed with other flavors. I made some Peanut butter cups with it and it doesn't seem to have enough umph I guess you'd call it. I have the Chocolate on order and hope it has a stronger flavor.

I mixed up Dan's Caramel and White Chocolate flavor recipe and liked it pretty good but again it was a lite flavor.

Linda,
I received my order quickly (since I live on the other side of the hill in San Jose). I ordered wintergreen, Mtn. Dew, and samples of her grape & cola. I like the wintergreen ok, but the mtn dew and grape are awesome!!!!!! My wife says that the mtn dew smells like sweet tarts, LOL! I haven't tried the cola yet I'm just so into the mtn dew. To make things even better, I don't get cotton-mouth, woohoo!

Linda, keep up the great work!

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not impressed with the milk chocolate. It seems to be overwhelmed if you mix it with any other flavor. And unfortunately I bought it for that purpose.

I'm wondering if I get the regular chocolate if, it'll have the same problem or if I can use it to kinda amp up the MC.

after my mint/choc sat for a night I could really taste the chocolate today! But still no mint taste..maybe give that one a try..

Chocolates in general IMO need to sit for a couple of days before the taste fully develops. It's even more so with PA I've discovered. Although I do think she could pump up the flavor a bit.

FYI... she told me that she doesn't read the posts here because she's afraid to. I told her I would read them to her. ;)
