RY4 Double compared to RY4 Type 1

[Nicot]

I decided to try my hand at DIY so ordered my supplies. I wanted to get some RY4 double because so many of the recipes seem to use it. The supplier was out of it so I got RY4 type 1.

Could someone tell me what the difference is, and can I use the RY4 type 1 in recipes that call for RY4 double?

Thanks

There is a thread called The Really Big RY4 Round up here's a link to the post that covers Double RY4 from TFA http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-liquid-reviews/193327-really-big-ry4-roundup-long-115.html#post5203793

Bill doesn't recommend the plain RY4 from TFA.

Hope it helps

From what I've read they are nothing alike, and could never be used interchangeably.

RY4D is very caramel/vanilla heavy with a tiny hint of tobacco far in the background, and RY4 Type 1 is very green/leafy/floral type tobacco.

I have only tasted RY4D, so the comments on RY4 Type 1 are only based on what I remember others saying.

I'm sure more people will chime in for you shortly!

That is a very good way to describe them.I had been using ry4 double for a while,and decided to try the type 1 and the asian,they are all 3 very different flavors,and to me,the ry4d is the only usuable one of those 3.Like you say,the type 1 is very floral tasting,and the asian was better,but it is more tobacco forward,but not a good tobacco taste haha.

Thanks guys.
I'm sorry I ordered it now but maybe I can use for something.

It's definitely worth trying,taste is very subjective and you may find that you really like it.There are alot of flavors that i think are downright nasty,but others think they are the best flavor out there.There are alot of people on this forum that really like the type 1,so just make up a small batch to try it,ya never know.

Thanks b.m.

I'll give it a shot. Maybe I can find something to add to it if I don't care for it.

Tobacco, vanilla and caramel are the basic flavors for a Ry4 type mix. I usually like some sort of nut flavor in there as well. As mentioned above the big roundup thread is a great resource.
