Good to hear it is working to combat your dysfunctional sweet tooth.I gave the Guava Wine some vaping time today and it is a keeper. Nice summer vape too. Sweetness is manageable with the peg base Thank you @Letitia
Meant to tell you about FLV sour apple...yes I know you aren't able taste apple already. It isn't sour but does have a rather lovely tart note. The apple is pretty much not there; if I hadn't known it was supposed to be apple I doubt I would have guessed. There is a light fruit note. All in all a very good flavor but being a FLV I won't know where it will land for another couple of weeks. I don't believe the apple will be any more obvious but do expect the tart to get more tart. Might be a good additive for you. I'm wanting to try it with lychee and mandarin.
Interesting. Let me know the results in a couple weeks please.
You'll remind me if I forget. I have only gotten thru about half the sf testers so far. That was the first one I thought might work for you. The others are sweet.
Gather my scattered bottles on computer desk and kitchen counter. Still have 5-6 more to try. I have already tried all these once so I'm not getting any big surprises. At least not yet. Think I'll stop trying them early and just let them steep.
Thank you for thinking of me
Still giving the Peanut Butter Bacco vaping time. It's almost really good but it's lacking something. I'm thinking more PB but I'll check out the recipe first.
Just what I said here:
It was a decent, if somewhat generic, pipe tobacco flavor. But, sadly, I wasn't able to taste any "whiskey" notes.
Even though I had mixed this at the high end of the recommended percentage; it was certainly not an in-yer-face flavor.I am at a bit of a loss, as how to judge any of the SM concentrates, because I have never used NETs before. I don't know if they are weaker, stronger, or what.
@FranC, the percentages you mixed at (compared to my higher percentages), are more in line with the few ratings and recommendations I have been able to find. I will be curious to see what you, and your husband think, once you have a chance to vape them.
I still have plenty of each; to let them continue to age. I will see what, if anything, time does for them.
Maybe just a drop, or two, of Acetyl Pyrazine (AP) to help bring out the "nuttiness" of the mix?
What did you end up ordering? I’m interested in at least the custard that’s not available in the US. What other flavors are available we don’t get?
I’m putting together my mix list for tomorrow’s session. Think I’m going to concentrate on recipes that need steeping since I’m pretty set with snv mixes atm. So mostly creams/custards etc.

The A+ Stixx Mixx I have is recommended at 6% to 10% but I used it at 5% and found it to be a pretty "in your face" kind of flavor. In the future I would keep it 3% to 5% max. I have a butterscotch/A+ mix yet to try and I used it at 6% so I'm thinking I may find it over-flavored.
This may well be the case.
Once it has aged to a point of stability; I intend to do a series of diluting tests, to check for over-flavoring possibilities. I just didn't want to wait for the entire aging time again.
I am also not ruling out the hardware factor (in my case) either. I have recently (3ish months?) moved from DTL vaping, to MTL vaping; and have picked up a new tank (a pair of the same actually), and dripper, that are better suited to this style. I have only built once for the tanks, and twice on the dripper. I feel fairly certain, that I don't have the "best" builds correct for either yet. Oh... and I have changed my wicking media, from cotton, to rayon.
I know I have too many variables going on at once; but I have to get it figured out sometime. This is why I am not prepared to say it is unsatisfactory concentrate; as it can just as easily (and more likely
) be an unsatisfactory builder (me!).

That is a lot of variables to consider! I'm holding steady DTL vaping with a 0.3 ohm build in a restricted lung hit RTA and wicking with rayon.
I sure hope I don't decide that I need to change things up down the road.
Several times I have made the mistake of trying a new recipe or flavor when I first get a new tank. It’s like shooting myself in the foot because I don’t know if it’s the tank, the build, or the flavoring.
I was looking through my flavor list on the computer and saw several that I didn’t remember I had and know I never tried. There were a couple mentioned in this thread that I thought I didn’t have.
