The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

[kteto]

I've been vaping this juice for two years as my ADV. I may have permanent vaper tongue or something because I need the cinnamon a bit to give me enough flavoring. Enjoy! Warning labels, LOL!

Yes..this juice has become my ADV as well..lol

Bill..hope you don't mind I ask you one question..my currently mix are 0 nic 50/50 pg/vg and seriously lack of throat hit..In order to get the TH, i have no choice but to use my RDA @ 50W but is kind of hassle to drip all the time and wanted to switch back to rba tank..so should I increase the primary flavour percentage or adjust the PG/VG ratio?

I have a preference for Bill's Apple Jacks. My Melona seems to be popular amongst the locals, here.

Maybe I've overstayed my stay. I don't know, but I still find posting here to be helpful.

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking around for quite some time and have learned a lot from this thread. I would like to add my contribution to this thread with MY take on the infamous Mother's Milk. This is a recipe that I have been working on for a long time and I think I've gotten really close to nailing it. Please share it if you'd like, however, please don't claim it as yours.

FriscoWeather's Moo Juice:

All flavors are TFA with the exception of Cheesecake (LA)

Bavarian Cream 3%
Caramel Candy 1%
Cheesecake New York Style (LA) 6%
Cinnamon Danish 3%
French Vanilla Deluxe 3%
Graham Cracker Clear .5%
Marshmallow .5%
Strawberry (Ripe) 5% (sorry, Bill)
Sweet Cream 3%
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 3%
Vanilla Custard 2%

Just shake and vape!

Enjoy

Just tagging this from {age 573, might use this recipe for my 1st take at DIY!! My flavor profile is getting too expensive lol, I want to try making my own juice..
Thanks frisco & Bill!! (And OP, and everyone else here!!)

So after reading Bill's posts and Blogs then testing a few of his recipes I had to order some more DIY supplies (flavors from TFA & Wizard labs). This weekend I'll start retesting and modifying my current recipes as I now feel I can make them pop at least a little more if not a lot more. After all most two years of DIYing thanks to Bill's help I have a fire growing inside to take my juices to the next level. Thanks Bill

The only thing you can argue with me about is how nuanced LFM are, and I think you are probably right. However, I make juice a whole lot faster than you!

I'm not going anywhere....no one else listens to me....

I would increase the PG ratio. At 50 watts your gonna get plenty of vapor either way probably.

Good luck Dave. Please let us know the details of your work efforts!

So I've revisited the Melona recipe I did awhile ago (Melon) because it was good but not equivalent to one of my favorite desserts. This one is much better...

10% honeydew
7% vanilla bean ice cream (haven't tried with the gelato yet)
3% vanilla swirl
2% em/cotton candy

This is very very nice. It almost has too much ice cream flavor but I'm betting that it mellows a bit after 24-48 hours.

I'm betting that this works with the other fruit flavors that Melona makes: strawberry (strawberry and strawberry ripe) and banana (banana ripe) in strengths appropriate to the flavor.

I'm also thinking that a blueberry extra version might be very niceas well.

This one is kind of sweet, you might not even need the em...depends on your sweet tooth.

I spent a long time looking for my 4 ounce bottle of VBIC only to realize that I only had 1oz of it. I'm going to need more but my next 30ml will be done with vanilla bean gelato too see which I prefer...

Final revision. I modified a few things based on the addition of a few other people's taste testing.

Melona
10% honeydew
5% vanilla bean gelato
5% sweet cream
2% em/cotton candy

I say last revision because this is my friends' favorite.

The next 30ml batch will have 1% banana ripe and something else I haven't yet tried as an undertone. sounds nice in theory but who knows...

 

[baseballmom]

That melona sure looks tasty, think I might mix it up tonight....Thanks for sharing!

In order to increase throat hit you have some options. You could increase your PG content, try adding a couple percent PGA to the mix, or try using a small amount of a spicy flavoring in your mix. Since you aren't using nicotine you have to make compromises to get the throat hit how you like it.

 

[AndriaD]

There's also Throat Hit Nicotine, from VapersTek -- great stuff, and not NEARLY as costly as their "clean" nicotine -- in fact it's cheaper than WizLabs' nicotine. Also, the Flash additive; I know FlavourArt makes it, maybe others too. I got mine at ecigexpress.com.

I haven't been doing much diy the last few months,but the last few days i have made a nice sized investment into it to get me motivated again haha.I picked up a magnetic stir plate with several flask type beakers just because i hate shaking new mixes so this will make that part easier haha,got my order today for 25 blue cobalt glass 30ml bottles with droppers,and 10 blue 120ml bottles with droppers,a glass funnel,picked up a scale a while back to use on large batches,still going with syringes for the smaller stuff,got some tobacco absolute,and just ordered Cherry extract,Cinnamon spice,Dulce de leche,French vanilla deluxe,and lemon all in the 4oz. bottles to add to my growing collection of large Tfa bottles haha.If this doesn't give me a kick in the pants to get back to mixing then i'm in trouble haha.

Hope you like it I've gone through almost 30mls of it this week. It's definitely a little richer tasting after a couple of days.

It also good with added 2% cantaloupe for the novelty but this one tastes like the ice cream bar I'm kinda attached to.

 

[cliffy15]

I know I posted this awhile back, but since the recent equipment discussion I thought I'd again mention the usefulness of pipettes and a pipette pump.

Easy to rinse, and long enough for big bottles (they are appx 14" long). I wouldn't recommend it for vg but they are wonderful for flavorings.

I also have a few borosilicate ones for the harsher flavors.those are a little expensive but worth it.

3% Bavarian Cream
3% Sweet Cream
3% Toasted Marshmallow
3% Marshmallow

[DarthEmma]

Just did some doctoring on a flavor I've been working on and I think I got it!

Cinnamon Waffles
TFA Waffle 10%
TFA Vanilla Swirl 4%
TFA Cinnamon Danish 4%
TFA Sweet Cream 3%

Really good, imho. I'm vaping in now and will probably be vaping it for a while. Need to mix up more.

Note: This started out as "French Toast" by vapor_trails_nw (on reddit), but I tweaked it a bit. I want to make sure I give credit where credit is due.
