I used to love coffee flavors but hadn’t found a recipe in a long time that I liked. This one I do. I think yours sounds good too and may try it as I think I have those flavors.

I've only tried a couple coffee concentrates. Dark Bean, and I have a Smooth Cappachino Cream. The Dark bean is crazy strong but I like it a lot.

The SC espresso is really strong too. I tried it in a coffee granola recipe.

0.5 Super Sweet, CAP (optional if steeping I'd skip it or add it after the steep)

I'm curious about this part. Is there a reason? I'm still learning the "ins and outs" of mixing....

All of my mixes are sweet enough on their on, but I don't like sweet juices. In the 2+years I've been into diy, I've never bought or used a sweetener.

CAP super sweet = sugar lips. I seldom use sweetener but will use a flavor as a sweetener at low % occasionally. Meringue or FA pear usually, most will use marshmallow the same way.

It's mostly to round out the sharpness of the tangerine if you are going to s&v. If steeping don't add till you try it after the steep..

Here ia one I like also. It called for 7% Vanilla Custard but that was way too much for me.

Blackberry Custard

6% Blackberry, CAP
2% Sweet Cream, TFA
1% Vienna Cream, FA
3 to 7 % (your call) Vanilla Custard, CAP

Cookies ! Cookies ! I thought I'd try a few recipes with CAP Sugar Cookie ....

@dobroeutro posted a Raspberry Doodle recipe earlier in this thread, but it looked like a cookie to me ;
Raspberry Cookie
Raspberry (Sweet) (TFA) - 6%
Sugar Cookie (CAP) - 4%
DX Bavarian Creme (TFA) - 3%
Sweetener - 1%

Borrowing from @Frenchfry1942 (who said he got it from someone else ;
Chocolate Cookie
Milk Chocolate (TFA) - 6%
Sugar Cookie (CAP) - 4%
Double Chocolate (Clear) (TFA) - 2%
Brown Sugar (TFA) - 2%

Another borrowed from our friend @dobroeutro ;
Cinnamon Sugar Cookie
Sugar Cookie (CAP) -6%
Cinnamon Danish Swirl (CAP) - 3%
DX Bavarian Creme (TFA) - 3%
EM - 1%

And one borrowed from @nat king kong ;
Blueberry Cookie
Blueberry Extra (TFA) - 4%
Sugar Cookie (CAP) - 4%
DX Bavarian Creme (TFA) - 4%
Blueberry Jam (CAP) - 2%

Just mixed yesterday, now we wait...

Hopefully at least one or two will be workable. Otherwise I would have to toss my cookies.

wait... did I say that... correctly ?

Earlier the question was why to use sweetner. Wayne from DIY or Die explains it (4:40). The video is good for new mixers on adjusting for flavors for different profiles. The just of it, you can use say 0.5 Super Sweet and maybe lower a flavor from 10% to say 6% and still have a good or similar flavor profile.

The raspberry and blueberry sound good. Did you try them yet?

 

[PapawBrett]

Not yet, maybe in a week or two. I tend to let anything with vanilla flavor steep first.

You'll double that quickly.

You’ve just started down the rabbit hole. With the order I just placed, I’m going to be at about 350.

I'm getting there, I'll be around 315-320. I have to laugh remembering swearing I'd never go over 200.

 

[Shadav]

I'm at about 125, well 136 but 8 or so are my own flavorings/oneshots if I had more spending money I'd have a lot more but for now I just keep adding a few more when there's good sales... now I'm working on getting flavors for layering... so I now have 3 different strawberries, 3 different bananas, 2 different pineapples, 2 different coconuts, ect.... to help round out the flavors more.

Here is one of my adv's, adapted slightly from NicVapes recipe:

They call it 'Snot Rocket' and all flavors are from NicVape but I am sure you could use other brands:

Honey Crisp Cereal 8%
Milk 6%
Banana 2%
Sweetener (optional) 1 drop

This is a shake n vape but is better after 3 days.

I think I would choose a different name....
