I made a wonderful recipe using pineapple recently. It's called Mango Colada by IDIO-T and you can find it in the community recipe packs on the Bull City Flavors site. I think I will slightly reduce the % of pineapple and increase the mango the next time I make it, but it's one of the best juices I have ever vaped. I didn't have quite all of the flavors I needed so I substituted a bit. I can't imagine how good it would be if I had followed it perfectly.
That sounds so good! And recipe packs? I never knew those existed. How cool is that. I googled the recipe name and maker and it took me straight to bcf. That is neat. But this recipe sounds like something I will enjoy and it is in the cart. I’m now going to check out these recipe packs.

    It appears that I have offended you. That’s not what I intended. Perhaps I missed your explanation of your research. I don’t always have time to read every post on this thread but have seen several of those flavor lists. I work 9 hours a day and can’t always keep up with this thread although I do try since it’s one of my favorites for some time now.
    I don’t think you offended hitt. He’s starting to understand what we’ve been saying.

    So can anyone help me with my new recipe (chocolate orange mint)? I'm not quite getting the orange but not sure if I just need more orange or less butter mint. The mint was big part of this idea (and the choclolate/mint ratio feels about right) I'm vaping it right now so going to add a bit more orange in the tank. What I'm asking is do you think the mint is muting the orange?
    Sidenote: I had a "brainfart" when I described WF Chocolate chunks... I mentioned Kahlua (somehow I confused coffee and chocolate)... I just meant it had a slight "boozy" flavor. Could it be one of those flavors that needs to breathe a bit? Also, how long does Croissant need to steep?

    I forget what orange you’re using. It’s been a while since I’ve played around with orange flavors but I was thinking that I really liked FW blood orange. If you’re using just one orange then maybe try mixing two. I’d use about 3% FW and maybe 1-2 of something else.

    I just got caught up on the thread. I see you found your happy place with the recipe already. Good for you. Enjoy it!

    Pineapple is one of the flavors I don’t care to vape but you might like it.

    I love pineapple but it didn't work for me as a vape. I didn't try very hard because it ate syringes. I sucked up half a syringe full and only managed to push about 1/4 of that out before the rubber pusher seized up. I did manage to make a couple of sample bottles of juice but it was always way too harsh. I could probably have improved it with Smooth or adjusted the quantity or whatever but I gave up on it.

    I've about given up trying to find a strawberry I like. Most of them are too muted for me. Nothing has really had much punch to it. I've tried about 5 or 6 of them with similar results. One day I'll get back into them and try some others.

    I use strawberry trinity quite a bit. Also, if you haven’t tried it, try succulent strawberry from OSDIY. It’s the most realistic strawberry I’ve tried. I haven’t been willing to anti up for alpine strawberry yet so can’t comment on that one.

    Reminds me of tfa cola and tfa cinnamon red hots. I destroyed many rubber plungers on syringes with those flavors.

    That one is way too pricy.

    I’m enjoying having time to cook without being in a rush. Just made my baked ham slices with pineapple and honey. :drool: We ate like animals. :laugh:

    Does anyone like to vape pineapple? I have some but I don’t think I’ve ever tried it.

    I feel like a nap now.

    A long time ago, I used to make a pineapple mix with some cream but my wife said it smelled like stinky feet so I stopped using it.

    I see that now. I was many pages behind and replied as I went along. I hope I didn’t stir things back up.

    Oh good! It's really a good recipe! Also from the recipe packs, I've made the Cantrips by Shyndo, the Game Over Custard by Mama J's and Strawnana Custard by Keno'Where. Every one of them is fantastic!

    I tried one pineapple. Forget which one. Thought it was horrid.

    Always wondered how cola vaped.
