Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

I just finished 3 strawberry sfts. This makes 5 total strawberries I have tested. Strawberry is one of my favorite fruits so I really wanted to try a variety of straight up strawberries. I've had two for quite some time. Ripe Strawberry-TFA and Juicy Strawberry-FA. Those two weren't quite cutting it so I tried three more. Strawberry-FW, Strawberry-TFA, and Sweet Strawberry-CAP. I can't say they are much better to be honest. All five lack authenticity. They all lack something. Can't say they are awful, but simply fall short of a genuine, authentic strawberry flavor. I've heard people share their disappointment in strawberry claiming they haven't found one they REALLY like. Perhaps strawberry just doesn't translate well into a vape for some of us. Perhaps strawberry is as much a texture as a taste because I don't go crazy over strawberry soda, ice cream, jello or candy either. Again, it's not horrible or anything but it doesn't replicate the flavor as well as other fruits (apricot, raspberry, peach). Probably the best of the five IMO was Capella's Sweet Strawberry. The worst was FW. TFA's and FA was kinda meh. Maybe there are others that are better but after five I've kinda OD'd on sampling strawberry. Perhaps one day I will revisit it but for now it's a back burner project.

When you get back to it. I would add INW.

Sugar and spice beat me to it but the succulent strawberry is the best single flavor strawberry that I've tried. I always forget that I have it. I usually use the strawberry trinity recipe in most recipes that call for strawberry.

This is the best strawberry I have found.

One Stop Blends - Succulent Strawberry - 30mL

They also carry all sizes so a 10ml is available.

I agree. That's probably the best single flavor strawberry I've tried.

Duly noted. INW was my next try. Never heard of the one S&S mentioned.

Sounds like a good plan.

Hi DIYers! I hope everyone is doing well. I just got these tubes (do you think I have enough, lol)delivered and it’s time to once and for all get all my sfts done. Now I just need to figure out where to start! Decisions, decisions

Omigod, like so tubular!

I thought they were stool sample bottles.

Very nice review I’m glad you like it.

I really do. It’s the best pod device I’ve used so far.

Free also. Can’t beat it.

It took so long to write that I’m not going to get around to mixing tonight. I’ll have to do it tomorrow.

Don’t blame you.

Now I'm vaping the Cranberry-Lime I mixed 10 days ago. I was convinced it would NOT be good so I put it off but finally tried it. Tastes like it's just Lime, which I do like but there's no Cranberry at all. Have to up the % of the Cranberry, the Lime is plenty strong but real good.

Which cranberry are you using? I like TFA but it is very weak. My favorite is Cranberry (SC) which is harder to find but worth it. This is a summer favorite.

Cranberry and Gin
Aurora (FA) 1%
Botanical Gin (VTA) 4%
Cranberry (TPA) 6% or Cranberry (SC) 3%
Lime Tahity (Cold Pressed) (FA) .5%
WS-23 30% .75% (optional or to taste)
