Random DIY mixing and More

[ShowMeTwice]

Good morning everybody...

What does cactus do at low percentages to fruit flavor mixes? I can't remember if it's cactus or pear FA that adds a juicy element, or if it's forest fruit added to berry flavors. I really should try some fruit flavors. I had a guava and cheese flavored eliquid once, it was good.

INW Cactus at very low %'s adds juiciness. I didn't like cactus. PIF'ed it.

FA Pear sweetens and adds creaminess at low %'s, 0.5-1%. It gains creaminess as it steeps. Enhances peaches. I use it as a sweetener in low %'s. Per HIC it can be used as an alternative to sucralose type sweeteners. Plays nice with, and will sweeten, less sweet fruits. IMO it's the most authentic pear flavoring.

FA Forest Fruit, a small amount, 0.5%, will enhance any berry mix.

So far only Nevans' LMP has been the only recipe I like from him. Even his ice cream trilogy was so so to me. I haven't tried a lot... There is a lady called the juicefairy on ELR who's recipes have been good. I love her peanut butter macaroon recipe.

I’m glad I’m on the only way who found the ic trilogy meh. I’ll have a look up juicefairy.

I didn't like cactus at all. Got like an aloe taste from it and at very low %'s (0.25-0.5). Gave it away.

You aren't the first person I know to have said that. I does pair much better with some fruits than others. I really like it with Guava or Apple. I normally use it around .25-.5%. The highest I ever go is 1%.

I have Shisha Vanilla, WF Vanilla Cream Extra, CAP French Vanilla, and Vanilla Swirl. I don't have the ones you mentioned.

Sounds like a good excuse to put in another flavor order.

I got my HHV and Gremberry orders today. Before I try HHV I want a new coil and wick. After work I guess. Now I need to put my flavors in elr. Still no Heartland shipping and today is the 6th day since I ordered.

What is Ice Cream trilogy? Is it an Ice Cream base?

Aren't you still working from home? Just take a "coffee break" and throw in a new coil.

I need to try Forest Fruit again. I mixed with it when I first started DIY and did not care for it as a main flavor. I'm going to try it as an accent flavor next time I mix up a berry recipe.

LNW and MFS are the only two nic vendors I haven’t tried. I guess more popular vendors that is. I’m sure there are more I don’t even know about. I have nic from WL, NN, River, and Heartland. Is the LNW nic good?

 

[Redbird11]

I was thinking about getting one extra liter of nic, but it looks like Heartland is out of PG Nic.

Sounds like a good idea to me. Just been bombarded with work already (time sensitive). It won’t take long to do though especially with mesh. The HHV juices smell the same as I remember.

Shisha vanilla would work nicely. I don't have vanilla cream extra. Have the other two.

They are the only vendor I've ever bought nic from, I'm satisfied with it.

Just to clarify, are you suggestion to replace the Tahitian Vanilla Cream with the Shisha Vanilla? Or to combine the two? Because I really like the Tahitian Cream.

Thank you

Any results back yet?

I've purchased from them and have been satisfied.

If it was my recipe...I would do a test mix without the SSA Raspberry Syrup.

Tahiti Vanilla's are usually a fruity, floral flavor with notes of cherry and almond. Some people get "medicinal" from it. I don't have WF SC TVC but do have FA Tahiti Vanilla (like it). Perhaps try lowering TVC to 0.5-1%.

If you have another cream or vanilla, maybe try those instead. FA Madagascar Vanilla 1.5-2% would work in your recipe. So would FLV Cream 0.5-0.75%.

Good luck.

Tahitian Vanilla Cream WF has no berry or floral notes at all. It's straight up vanilla cream and an excellent one at that. You should try it. Tahiti Vanilla FA is a whole different animal.
