Tackle box organization worked well.

I think Amber and the Smoked Plum will work well together. The smell was intriguing.
A little later than my 2nd cup of coffee but I had a tackle box to modify and arrange.

Interested I how those work out.

To me, it gives a rich,warm depth to the fruits. Sort of like a raisin maybe? I don’t eat figs or fig newtons, so I’m guessing it’s not true to life. I use it as a background flavor. I would imagine it would play nice with tobaccos and custards too

Sounds good. Ty

 

[FranC]

I think I’ll just wait for you to try everything and report back . We ordered several of the same flavors

LOL.......ok

2% FLV Cranberry
.25% Liquid Amber

I gave it a sniff tonight and it still smells like a wet hole after a lot of rain. Testing it will take some courage.

Think I'll mix the FLV (Cranberry) Gin and Tonic without the Amber.

So many fig possibilities - Apple and Fig Custard, Yoghurt with Figs and Pistachios, Milk Pudding with Rosewater, Caramel, and Figs, Figs with Brie...you can have fun with that one.

Any ideas on that Fig with Brie?

That sounds like the classic strawberry pairing that Wayne Walker (DIYorDie) speaks of. he cites a blend of:
2% CAP Sweet Strawberry
3% TFA Strawberry Ripe

Here is a link to one of his mentions. Scroll to the bottom of his flavor notes to see his description.

A couple things I’d like to add...

WW’s Real CC recipe in the link you shared, IMO, seemed to be a bit hard on my coils. It tasted okay to me but felt the strawberry was lacking. I added a few drops of razzleberry, which really seemed to complete it and tasted much better this way to me and a couple friends.

I took so many notes in the beginning. I’m glad you mentioned this because I flipped to a section of my notebook I haven’t viewed for a while, where I had other great notes, stones, etc. All of my many notes from earlier into DIY are making so much more sense to me now! This is another strawberry base or flavor WW often uses...

4% CAP Sweet Strawberry - 3-4% candy sweet strawberry
2% TFA Strawberry - 1-2% green core of unripe sb, needs body
1% Strawberry Ripe - pink or ripe part of the sb balances it out

And why hasn't anyone listed it here ?

@PJReid (I believe it was) Posted a couple lists on another thread a month or so back. When I have more time I’ll try to find them all and bring them all together in one thread.

I tried another out. It is going to need to age for quite a while though.
INW Custard 2%
FA Fresh Cream 1%
INW Classic Vanilla 2%
FLA Pumpkin Spice 2%
FLA Ginger Peach .25%

This looks interesting! Please let us know...

I had tried this many years ago and did not like it. In fact I don't do any cake or cakey like juices. Not really fond of dessert types of vapes. And when we started noticing and doing something about the bad stuff in juice, I was glad I didn't like them.

lol

Just the opposite as I love a good cake mix

 

[NatashaTMT]

I actually bought yellow cake at least 3 years ago. No idea why but I never opened it.

Sounds like a pif eligible

 

[NatashaTMT]

So that's where the Ginger Peach went.........they were oos when I tried to get a bottle......

LOL

ECX has it but it’s $7ish. Idk its prices other places atm though.

I pif all my unwanted flavors to a friend in SC.

Great !
I just can't believe no one has done a thread like that here....things people might want to avoid...sugars, bad stuff and tank crackers

Wasn't there a thread on tank crackers time long ago?

Jewels had one in Tanks, clearomizers and drop-in coils, but it was a mix of pre-made and flavors.
2011 - 2015
Let's make a list of juices/flavors that crack tanks, ce2's/clearos...

Yup,that's the one I was thinking of.

Interested I how those work out.

I liked Catalan Cream enough I got 30ml after trying it then never mixed with it. I'm curious if it's cream enough for coffee.
They all smell good today. The pom has toned down so it smells more like a mix.
I don't know how long to age the smoked plum, the single 2% taster I did of it took a while to smell worth trying. Now after weeks it's lost almost all the floral notes I didn't like and I can taste smoke and plum. I made 15ml of that one so I can keep some around.

I do think Amber and Plum was a good choice. Right now it wasn't bad dripping on a gennie wick but was bouncing between flavors so needs some time but nothing is clashing. I tried some Amber stand alone to refresh my memory and it's definitely not overpowering in the plum mix so far.

How long would you say to steep the Smoked Plum?

 

[FranC]

If memory serves me right the Catalan would be fine in coffee vapes.
