Random DIY mixing and More

Reeks of sweet. I won't be mixing it.

@NatashaTMT I found this on one of the recipe sites listed as a snv. I haven't mixed it but think I will.

INW Custard 1.5%
FA Vanilla Classic 1%
Cap NY Cheesecale 2%

It pairs really good with tobacco. So do prune and raisin. I prefer the plum myself, but you may like the others better. DIY can be a bit overwhelming at first with the infinite choices and all.

I love all that stuff, but can't eat it anymore. Boba's Bounty has a raisin/prune flavor in it (to me; graham, too), so that will be one of the first things I do with it (when I order it). BTW, I ordered Purilum Sweet tobacco, Hangsen RY4, Flavor Apprentice Dk tobacco, Flavor Apprentice RY4 Double, and Hangsen Desert Ship (NR shipped already). Any of those tobaccos look like a better pairing/combination or stick with the PST?

I don't get juicy from pear but do use it to add a soft sweet note. I love pear forward juice.

Oh, I'll be needing a really good pear when I'm ready to contemplate fruits, so it's good to know that I can use it to tweek other recipes. One of my goals is to find/figure out how to clone (or come close enough to) AHL's Autumn Mist.

I have another strange question. Has anyone mixed with cucumber? I could never imagine mixing with such a flavor but I came across a recipe that actually sounded very good. I have the cucumber on my wishlist but I can't find the dang recipe.

I had a cucumber juice once that was light in the cucumber with a light mint. Don't know what other flavorings were in there, but a bit of Koolada was probably in there, too. I remember it being the perfect Summer vape: Light & refeshing. Kind of like Natasha's recipe below, but without lime. I definitely want to try her recipe though! Only things I'm missing are cucumber & lime, damn.

6% Cap Cucumber
.25% WF Double Mint
.5% Koolada
1.5% FA Lime tahity (Cold Pressed)

I use it in my watermelon as a strengthener/missing notes flavor. I might try swapping it for INW watermelon next time since it's a strong watermelon that is different than the FA and TFA.

And Cool Hand Cuke. An ADV that's good for a while but wears thin.
Cucumber (TFA) 6%
Wintergreen (TFA) 3%
Menthol .33%
Koolada .33%

The Hangson Desert Ship should be a good mixer. I don't like the Ry4 but you might.

@DebbieNY I find TFA Pear to be good and actually tastes like Pear to me.

 

[FranC]

@Myk I can't vape wintergreen. Don't like it. Mixing any mint with cucumber just doesn't sound good to me.

 

[Letitia]

This looks good but I think you’re 100% right. I definately need to mix as a SFT to get it’s profile etc. Does it require typical 2-4 week steep in a mix? Recommended SFT steep?

2 weeks at least. Better at 3. Great with white fudge, cheesecake, nuts & cream, coffee, and dark fruits, apple, pear.

You don't seem to be a fan of mints.
Cucumber menthol/mint is popular even in retail mixes. Wintergreen goes good with watermelon even as a background note. I think watermelons and cucumbers are very similar in taste. I was kind of shocked when I grabbed the recipe and saw it was wintergreen, but it made sense that I paired them.

No I'm not. Peppermint is the only mint I can vape.

I mixed this and treated it as a real snv. I mixed it,shook it and filled a small tank. Yes,I know custard needs the long steep for it's whole potential but this is good right now.

 

[Letitia]

@DebbieNY for me TFA Pear and FA pear 2:1 ratio makes a perfect pear.

 

[DeloresRose]

I just got my juice orders yesterday, and whipped up a little of the Cap Butter Pecan. I had to pop in here and tell you guys, it’s so good! Probably will be better in a week or two but I definitely could vape this right now, all by itself.

Pretty sure I read it somewhere in this thread, so thanks, whoever recommended it.

Mixed a bunch of testers today.

Pazzo king 4%
Osdiy succulent strawberry 6%
Osdiy lotta lattee 8%
Osdiy blue Pom 5%
Osdiy southern sweet tea 10%
Sweet tea 7% succulent strawberry 4%
Sweet tea 9% FA Fuji 1%
FA Fuji 3%
Succulent strawberry 4% cap VC1 2%

Not really a ton, but I want to get an idea of what a few of those osdiy flavors can do. I ordered a 120ml of their Lucky Shot, that’s fantastic @10%, and will make a ton of that. It’s something I can always grab when I don’t know what I want.

Also have a few from a few days ago.

Pur Sweet Tobacco 6% + TFA pistachio 2% + TFA graham cracker clear 2%

Pur Sweet Tobacco 6% TFA graham 2%

.

I think your best bet to get close to Boba's is the PST. I Have been tinkering with a Gold Ducat/PST blend to use as a base to build something similar. Gold Ducat has a raisinny background. Still waiting to see how it is after a month long steep. For any dessert tobaccos I think PST is your best bet. It is easy to overpower though so I go easy on the flavors I add to it. I am going to try out PST/Ducat/Plum right now. I'll let you know how it turns out.

@PJReid. Fizzy Bay Breeze recipe?

Yes, based on the cocktail called a Bay Breeze, sometimes called a Hawaiian Bay Breeze, vodka and pineapple juice, while a Sea Breeze is vodka and grapefruit juice. Both make tasty vapes with some coolant. Refreshing and delicious! Gin would work in either.

 

[PJReid]

@PJReid Any opinion on TFA Kentucky Bourbon? I only have a wee bottle and wonder if should should add a bigger one to my wishlist.

I have never mixed anything with Bourbon, but mixers who do like the TFA Kentucky Bourbon a lot!

 

[FranC]

@DebbieNY for me TFA Pear and FA pear 2:1 ratio makes a perfect pear.

@Letitia If I was more of a pear person I would mix that. I have a 30ml bottle of TFA Pear I bought some time ago. While I love that it tastes like a real pear it's way too sweet for me. I've always wanted to find a blend that would lessen that sweetness by alot but I always forget. Any ideas?

Good enough for me Ty

OK,then just a change of flavors?
