I know some don’t like it but I like tfa ry4 double.
Sorry, but I have that (to me it's mostly butterscotch) Before this, I had a pre-made I used (vape Wild RY4life) that I liked. I'm basically waiting to get Holy Holy Grail (DIYFS?) and just using what I have for now. Anyone doing tobacco... just take my word on this... Get Purilum Sweet tobacco (no, it's not sweet and yes, it has a wonderful nutty flavor (FA Soho has that too) It's really a shame that only River Supply has PUR flavors... they do have good nic IMO so might be a good excuse to make an order.

    Have been hiding in the shadows but lately can only read a few of the million post you all keep jabbering about(jk). No way to keep up unless you can be here every day. Life has a way of making road blocks.

    Hope all is well and I tried a few new recipes.....like Frans' Cheesy( I made it with crossaint instead of biscuit). The crossaint is strong so I am cutting the % back to .50. All else is the same in Frans recipe.

    I also like DC's yogurt drink but it needs something. Can't quite put my finger on it. And no, Fran, it does not need one of your foundations in it. lol

    :)

    I also felt like the yoghurt drink recipe was missing something. I added fruit but it just seemed empty. I haven’t messed with it since the first mix.

    That is a lol but I don’t have a base in my Yogurt Drinks.

    I used the sweet tobacco with butterscotch ripple for quite a while. To me the sweet tobacco doesn’t taste like a real tobacco. Just like ry4 isn’t tobacco. If I want tobacco in a recipe then I use a NET.

    I like the Yoghurt Drink but also feel it needs something but haven’t really given it much thought yet .

    Yeah I can’t even vape the fake tobaccos anymore, NET is it if I want a tobacco

    Not me of course . I had a 99% fail rate. The Rhubarb and Custard was a winner for me. I have since wrote my own recipe for it.
    I think that's the game... try "one-shots" then make your own recipe (but less sweet) It's mostly a way for newbies to DIY to have an easy way to get started.

    They are not "tobacco" flavors... just something to add to make it interesting (on their own... no way)

    I just tried @FranC recipe for Tobacco Rum after a month of steeping.
    It's great. As opposed to what @FranC replied to an earlier post of mine, I taste both Rum and raisin. And they both taste great together in that flavoring.
    I may have asked this before, does anyone use the FLV Raisin Rum for any other recipes?

    Everyone’s taste buds are different. Sounds like yours are a bit better than mine.

    I am thinking something creamy. Maybe some drops of flv cream. Taken fr @ShowMeTwice comments.

    I disagree with that, as far as using "one shots". There are quite a few of us who've been DIYing for several years, who still regularly use some specific "one shots", because we love them. OSDIY has several I won't be without in my flavoring stash. :)

    Good morning :)

    Maybe I haven't steeped it quite long enough(I believe it was a SNV, but I steeped it for I think 4 or 5 days), but I tried this:
    Blueberry milkshake
    Blueberry milkshake VT 7%
    Blueberry extra TFA 2%
    The blueberry flavor is there and quite strong, but not much "milkshake" flavor at all. I wonder if I could add some VBIC, or perhaps something else? I think @hittman made this.

    How's the blueberry flavor on that one? I swear, I have been trying for years to find a go-to blueberry vape. My first ever ejuice was a delicious local blueberry. Ever since then I have had horrible luck when trying to find another good one.
