Can any of you good folk tell me where to get a funnel & which one to fill my 30ml plastic squeeze bottles? Using the top off of one of those mustard/ketchup squeeze bottles now with mediocre success! Don't laugh I'm a Hillbilly at heart!
Especially if you are using plastic 30ml bottles, I found a funnel to be a PITA for many reasons related to the small diameter of the bottle neck. I fill small bottles with a 30ml syringe and blunt tip needle. I use the largest diameter (smallest gauge number) needles (12 or 14ga I think) or sometimes don't use a needle, depending on the neck size. You have to clean the syringes well or dedicate one for each flavor. But it's easier to do the fill.

I never really get on twitter,only reason i even have a page is because i enter alot of the contests on vaping cheap and a few other sites,and you get extra entries for following the various sites on there.Other than that i don't go there,i don't think i have ever actually even looked at my page haha.
As for Facebook,that's another that i rarely go to,i had no intentions of having a page there,but one day i got an email saying i had a friends request from someone,on a page i didn't even know i had haha,turns out my wife had set it up,and apparently forgot to tell me about it haha.
FB is where my extended family, & close friend's, kids & all, stay in touch. No stranger's allowed. It works well since we are all so much alike.

The only coffee flavor that I've tried is the caramel cappuccino. It's super strong. One to two drops per 10ml. I've got a big bottle of it running around somewhere but haven't used it in a long time.

I probably bought the "wrong" one to start with as a base but, on the same note, I really have no idea where to start. This is what I bought...

Perfumers Apprentice - Coffee Flavor

I have several different vanillas and a couple custards. Just not sure what to do with this one. :confused:

    It appears that it is a black coffee flavor. I would have to add some EM most likely and maybe some vanilla swirl or something like that to start with. I don't remember if there are any coffee recipes on the dropbox but I'll take a look.

    The only thing I saw on the dropbox was a couple of espresso recipes. I guess it's what kind of coffee flavor you're looking for but you might try some whipped cream and caramel if you have them.

    I have both and EM, vanilla swirl, fr. vanilla, vanilla bourbon, vanilla custard and vanilla Tahiti (FA), vanilla cupcake and vanilla bean ice cream. I was looking for like a French Vanilla coffee.

    Maybe try the coffee at 8-10 and then try a couple vanillas for 4-6 . I would try it before adding em to see if it's sweet enough without it.

    I don't know why I didn't think of it before but try French Vanilla. I wish I had the coffee flavor so I could try it myself.

    I've never found a vendor coffee flavor that tastes like coffee to me. I use my own coffee extract.

    Try a juice from Cyclops Vapor called 'Hades". It is a good cream and sugar coffee. It has a very good flavor to me.

    I did bills cafe mocha after a long steep it wasnt to bad but i used tfa coffee juice was real dark cotton burnt quickly. next time going to try it with coffee clear. Any suggestions Bill?
    As coffee is an acquired taste, so, too, is it an acquired vape...all due its bitterness, bolstered by its affect. While the taste is easily duplicated, we often drink coffee for its affect and largely ignore the taste, or tolerate the taste, or acquire the taste. Once we "add" cream and sugar to our coffee, it's more like a desert than a true coffee, and, because it tastes better, we come to believe that coffee is "delicious", even when the best coffee is acrid and bitter. Vaping that flavor is new to our senses, so we have to "re-learn" to appreciate it as a vapor, or else, change it to a sweet, which actually tastes like a desert.

    As such, I don't really vape coffee, as I don't like that flavoring over many others, though I religiously drink exactly three demitasse of espresso each morning. Now, I do like the flavoring of my espresso, but am I drinking it for the flavor, or for the affect? I like the affect, and an espresso, even three, is over in a instant, and I am satisfied. Translating, for me, that experience to a vape, a juice, if you will, would not work for me at a fundamental level, so I never pursued a coffee vape. Long story short, I drink my espresso for affect, not for flavor, though I have come to "love" that flavor as a drink, I do not like it as a vape, and believe I probably never will, so I dropped it's pursuit a long time ago. Sorry folks, I can't help, but I add my comments to encourage a conversation about this subject, even criticism, I suppose, for another view. Viva l'espresso! :toast: :D

    I really like coffee and enjoy the taste. I enjoy fresh ground every morning and add very little sugar or sweetener. As much as I like real coffee, I have yet to find a coffee vape that I can stand for very long. Years ago when I first started vaping there was a coffee liquid from Ruyan Direct that I really liked but they stopped making it.

    As this is a TPA thread, I'm hesitant to interject a different brand but if you us FA Dark Bean (Coffee Espresso) as your base you will have no bitterness. While I do enjoy coffee vapes, those that I've mixed in this fashion are delectable.

    Best to all!
