Random DIY mixing and More

Bad part is they dont seem as strong as some of flv flavors. 2-5% range

Bingo! At those prices and the suggested usage rates for these new flavors, even 20% off isn't gonna cut it for me. They formulate flavors the same as everybody else so I fail to see why they think their flavors deserve such premium pricing. Frankly, I think it's pure marketing 101 ... brand it as a premium and charge as much as the market will stand.



Don't get me wrong, I think some of their flavors are indeed excellent however I'm not so keen on their pricing. They also don't allow resellers to discount their flavors even when they buy it in bulk which in turn means the end consumer gets screwed because there is no variable pricing available to them.

How nuts is this? Lots of overlaps, I know (so many berries!), but I need to figure out what I like best. In terms of amounts, I figure 10mls to start, except for maybe the vanillas, the marshmallow, and the meringue.

Feel free to pick apart at will.

WOW. I am impressed at your flavor selection. Your research really shows how hard you have come at this. Lots of mixers actually use 2 like-flavors to get a fuller, more in depth of a flavor. Examples can be tfa ripe strawberry mixed with fa red touch strawberry. Or some will add a bit of bilberry to blueberry to get the flavor to pop. So order sameness from different makers is exactly what we do. Good job.

I know why I only have a handful of FLV flavors. Some of their prices are outrageous. $17.49 for vanilla?

I must be blind: I'm not seeing anything about a sale on the Bull City Flavors site.

Does ECX have regular sales? Despite my fatigue, I've been filling a cart there (twenty-two items so far), and I'll happily hold off checking out if a sale is going to roll around in the next couple/few months.

Both BCF and ECX send out emails to those on their mailing lists plus someone on this thread for sure would post it even if you have not signed up.

My general observation on ECX sales — for the most part they generally announce their sales on Friday. Their sales tend to be for one brand although on a rare occasion I have seen it on all brands. I don’t recall ECX ever putting CAP on sale.

Flv smooth vanilla is suppose to be used by drops only. It's that concentrated and is meant to aid other flavors not as a stand alone flavor. If this is true then 1 bottle can last a really long time. You may never have to buy it again.

 

[NotSoMini]

Yup,I'll cut the sweetener also. How'd ya guess?

I am a mind reader

 

[NotSoMini]

Joy is the only thing I need.. so sad.

I only need Custard.

 

[NotSoMini]

Thanks Too bad he didn't try them all....LOL

This is what I have incoming. Can’t wait to get the flapper pie to make the lmp!! And lemon round candy for the thread’s version of dumbledore. Need ideas for cannoli shell (wink wink @FranC since you said I should add it).

Both the LMP and dumbledore are really good. I think I'm going to try a different lemon than the FA sicily next time I mix it. I searched elr for ideas for cannoli shell and only came up with the oreo cannoli that I posted the other day.

I’m waiting on a report on that one from you. I haven’t had luck finding a chocolate vape I like yet. I also have the chocolate cookie crust to work on so that’s worth a try

The Flavorah Citrus Soda got good reviews on the FogVlog for adding a zesty effervescent effect. I’m going to get it and try it out. I wish it was a full sale though since I need a couple of other flavors.

Have you tried Vape Train Fizzy Sherbet? That might be a better alternative for a lemon/lime soda type fizz. I find Fizzy Sherbet to be lemon heavy and does have the perception of effervescence. I want to try Fizzy Additive (CNV) for a no flavor option.

That looks tasty! I “hearted” it so I can find it later.

I did a screenshot of it. The cannoli shell isn’t used in it.

Sub it for the biscuit?
Edit... biscuit and sugar cookie? Or just one of those?

I have now

 

[Myk]

Trying my Vanilla Custard. It's not bad, the vanilla isn't overpowering. But it's having a hard time taking over the orange on my wick.

Custard 4% (FA)
Apricot 2% (FA)
Peach Juicy 2% (TFA)
Cream Fresh 1.67% (FA)
Vanilla .33% (JF)

 

[Zazie]

Added some strawberries, some limes, and vanilla gelato to the list. I'm going to have to buy one of those nail polish cases sharpish.

 

[hittman]

I added my latest order to my flavor stash. I’m up to 243. I’m honestly not sure if I have everything on that list. There might be a box or two that I haven’t added yet.
