No,it started out as just a 30ml VC i was making at 30% total.I came upon this thread as i was making it and the VC was already added at the time and after calculating the other three added flavors it is more like 45% total flavor using 36mg unflavored @ 24mg nic.EDIT: Which is not really 24mg. more like 20mg with the added flavors.

Awesome, but I've never tried that high a flavor percentage in a mix. Gonna take some baby steps to get me there!

I know it's a high flavor %,but i was also using FW VC and two of the other three flavors were FW also.You can use FW up to 50% and some of there flavors actually need to be mixed at that % in order to get the full flavor in a mix.Also remember,i did not use any sweetener either,it was not needed,as the final mix was,an accident in flavor,but just sweet enough and not too sweet.

Shouldn't the TFA flavors be listed as 100% PG instead of checking off the "flavor zero pg/VG" column? Maybe the capellas also? I'm not sure what they are derived from because I've never used them.

That's a good question. Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to that... at least not until I get home and try to find out the makeup of the flavors. Thanks for pointing that out. If anyone out there is particularly concerened about their pg intake fir health reasons, please take a moment to check these flavor concentrates before mixing, and if you can't make a determination, please refrain from making this recipe until this question can be answered.

Otherwise, if pg/vg ratio is not a big concern for you, just add the check marks, mix the amounts and enjoy. As always, all additions, tweaks, experiments are all welcomed here in this thread.

Vego, after your tweaks, are you pretty satisfied? The reason I'm asking is because I still lack the eggnog and the butter! So, I have something else to add in a cinnamon hint, but I'm pretty lost on subbing the butter. I have it on the "wish list" and will pick some up next budget day.

But I want to try it NOW so I'm just going to go for it! I hate to modify your recipe without trying the original, but I ran out of patience!

Okay, folks, let me offer my apologies. I was wrong to add those check marks on all the flavors EXCEPT tfa Whipped Cream, which is the only one which offers no mention of pg in the description. MiamiMom is absolutely right though, all that changes is the pg/vg amounts ie... in a 15ml batch - 42pg/102vg with my mistake; 0pg/145vg calculated properly. But I realize that could be very important to a pg sensitive vaper... so sorry.

Thanks much to MiamiMom for putting me straight!!!

I ran out of both Vanilla Custard flavoring and all stock of my most current blend (see tweak report back a few posts). The last I vaped of it was easily a week ago. That said, I was very satisfied with the blend. Is it anything like Grants? I have no idea - as I still haven't tried it yet. But it is very yummy. I won't insist it doesn't need anything else. Could be there's something that would make it better - maybe the bavarian cream or the french vanilla or the cinnamon... or maybe something really out there that one of you guys will come up with.

Don't worry at all about modifying my recipe. I actually put it out there so it could be compared to Grants, in the hopes that a bunch of us could knock heads together and maybe come up with something very similar that we could make ourselves when we get stiffled by the 'out of stock' message... or, God forbid, actually find something BETTER than Grants.

I say go with whatever you can think of that would make a good VC with what you have. I would just urge you, if you ever get all the flavors I use, to try a small batch of my recipe because it is very good. Also to compare it with what you come up with and let us know your findings.

RTSvapes.com has Butter and Eggnog in stock... both Capella. Vape on. :vapor:

Sans butter and eggnogg at this time, so I subbed in marshmallow for butter and cinnamon coffee cake for eggnog. It's not horrible, but it's not the way the recipe is intended. Still going to make the original as soon as those two flavors are on board.

You need Nutmeg for that eggnog substitute
