The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

[partyannimal]

The answer is probably somewhere in this thread, but I'm not finding it with the search function.

The TFA Lime and Orange flavorings are listed as "Lime oil" and "Orange oil". Are these safe to use? If not, what other brand would you recommend for these two flavors?

I have TFA key lime and it's pretty good. I also got the orange cream and that one's delicious!

Yeah I tried to order some orange cream a few days ago from wizard and they were out. About half the things I had on my list they were out of stock. Offered some substitutes from other suppliers, just hope they are decent.

Have only mixed one flavor(Carmel Original) so far, which is not working for me.
I NEED A WIN!

Not because I'm in a hurry but cause I want to see that this works...
Which flavor is most likely to be able to vape right away?
And if you got a percentage to give will try that too.
Here is what I got.

Banana Nut Bread
Black Cherry
Butterscotch
Cappuccino
Carmel (Original)
Cola
Crème de Menthe
Dew Drops (Citrus Punch)
Granny Smith Apple
Mocha
Orange Cream
Pina Colada
Strawberry
Sweetener
Vanilla Swirl
Watermelon

Cappuccino is the obvious choice, also some of the fruits. Except Granny perhaps. It has a tart taste.

If you are into peppermint like I am try "Cre'me de Menthe", start at around 2% its a good flavour. I mix both P/mint + CdM + Coolada very nice too.

ps if it tastes a bit dry add a few drops sweetener

You've have some good flavors. I would go with Orange Cream as the best single flavor mix here. Use minimum suggested percent from the TFA single flavor list (~5%?). Enjoy!

I have such a reflex habit of shaking everything when it comes to vaping, that I even shake the heck outta my flavor vials before opening them and roll my tanks around before vaping them after they've sat. Not a bad habit to have, and I always know my juice is mixed well.

I'm the same way. Any bottle I pick up I shake even if only 30 seconds.

I keep nic in 120 ml bottles. I'll measure for a 15 ml close the cap move on to the other ingredients. When I go back to mix another flavor day 10 mins later I'll swish the nic around before I open it again. Repeat each time while making multiple bottles of juice.



My phone auto correct has a mind of its own.

Banana Nut Bread is one of our favorite stand-alone flavors and is immediately vapable at 10%.

Has anybody here tried the Sweet Raspberry or Banana Nut Bread? I mixed both up around 7% and they were sort of bland after a weeks steep. I think I overshot the sweet raspberry and was close to the banana nut bread. I did try finding the running % list but it seems like its more than a few pages buried.

 

[rowdyplace]

I'll find the latest list.

In the meantime, most of the same data is available here:

Dig thru this data, there is a lot of good stuff here.

Thanks for responses and understanding.
Soon as I get back to it I'm gonna try small samples of all your recommendations.
Need to further this process along. Thanks.

I usually mix the Banana Nut Bread at 10% and only have to let it sit for a day before vaping it. I just got the Sweet Raspberry and haven't had a chance to try it out myself.

I just got the sweet raspberry. A friend wanted blueberry. This works I used blueberry wild about 8% and a small % (2% I think) of the raspberry. It smells good but it's still sitting on my shelf.

Banana nut bread hmm...

TFA Hawaiian Drink has the cool juicy kind of gummy bear taste if you want something similar to gummy bears, IMHO.

fwiw, i have TFA Sweet Tart, and at the recommended 10%, its got a soapy / perfumy taste for me. I've steeped it a couple weeks took it down to 5% and its a little better… not a lot of tartness imo.

anybody do well with it?

I mixed it at 8% and it came out great.

Add a little grape for purple sweet tarts...

I've read the last few pages and I have concluded that can someone please update the OP for recommended percentages? I found a few lists on the first few pages but nothing as of late.

Anyone have a link bookmarked they could share? TIA

Thank you.

Guess I'm guinea pigging Gummy Candy, Mary Jane, Root Beer, and Vanilla Custard. That's cool. I can dig it. I'll post what I find out about them.

Look back a page or two in this thread. My post #2056 has (what I believe to be) the latest compilation.
