The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

[Kenna]

I finally tried the RF I got from OSDIYS & am really disappointed. I mixed 8ml samples @ 15% & can barely taste anything at all. They smell great, but there just is not much flavor. The bread pudding is really the only one I can taste much at all, & I think it's the cinnamon that is letting me taste anything. I'm going to finish my samples & try again with maybe 18% flavor. As it is, I wouldn't use these to even try to mix together or with a recipe. I really can't see 15% for a flavoring or mix.

Nice! I probably should have done that with a few like the white chocolate and green tea...

Mmmmm white chocolate. Adding that to the next order [emoji6]

Shake n vape? They need a good long steep.

The white chocolate is really good. I used it in Bills cheesecake recipe.

Thanks! I think I saw a recepie here that used it but now I have to search it out again. I need to keep better notes. :-\

Found the screenshot of the recepie with the white chocolate in it...

I don't remember who posted it though. Sorry.

Does key lime or really any lime change flavors for y'all after a while? I mixed up a key lime cheesecake awhile back and put it away to steep for a couple of weeks. It tasted ok, a little bland so I set it aside for a couple more weeks before I tried it again. The key lime tasted nothing like key lime. I thought it was just my taste buds but my son and a vaping friend of mine said the same thing.

I made Bill's key lime pie & used it awhile & set it aside. Need to get it out & try it again. I vaped it in my rotation for a couple of months tho. It was always good.

@LynnNC This is my first experience with it so I can't say yet... But I think it tried to eat my syringe! It got really tight and the rubber plunger stuck. I got it moving and flushed it with water and it seems okay.

I thought I had the cheesecake graham crust but it turns out I have cheesecake and i have Graham crust...

Is it normal for there to be chunks of something in the cheesecake? Like white chunks? I shook the crap out of it and they won't dissolve. A couple are pretty good sized so for now, there's no cheesecake flavour in the bottle.

I learned my lesson a while back haha.I have several that i bought straight in large bottles that i ended up not liking,so now i stay with sample sizes until i know for sure.

They need at least a month, some say 2 months.

Thanks, I'll mix more at same strength & ignore their whining for a month.

New to me anyway.

The only one of those I've tried is Green Tea. Only made it once and it seemed pretty much tasteless. Maybe it needed some additive or a higher %.

The green tea is actually for another recepie. I may try it stand alone but yea, a tiny bit of a taste and it doesn't seem real strong. I guess real brewed green tea isn't very strong though either.

Anybody have any opinions on my cheesecake having white floaters in it?

If it were me, I would try and stir it to break up those chunks. If its a small bottle then I would probably just start over and try and stir the flavoring instead.
I have glass stirrers that I use but never really had chunks of anything in my flavors. Not sure what to think. It could just be the company didn't mix it completely. Or somehow something got in that shouldn't have?
Contact the vendor and ask if they can replace the bottle.
