I am thinking about trying Red Licorice--the thing is, I love twizzlers candy--but I loathe red vines. Is the TFA red lic like Twizzlers? Here's hoping! I imagine a twizzlers flavor could be an adv for me.

Filled up a tank of cliffy' s Melona-what can I say? Rich, creamy honeydew vanilla....well balanced recipe, has chameleon effect least for me it does, sometimes honeydew up front on inhale, some times the vanilla bean gelato, other times it's 50/50, a very thick mouth feel...I like it, it's unique, it's tropical without pineapple or coconut. I could see adding a note of banana to it, or I might even try jackfruit, maybe even Koolada in summer...I don't like the true fruit, but boy am I on honeydew vapes like white on rice, this one is probably the nicest hd vapes I've had just due to it's smoothness and balance...yum! Thanks again for sharing! Wanted to let ya' know I like it
I'm so glad you like it.
thanks for the feedback!
Welcome to the thread John, yes a really great group of people here for sure, I agree! I sure think I'll try that champagne, strawberry ripe, and juicy peach recipe when my champagne arrives, thanks for sharing it....love those 2 fruit flavors
Hello all, My name is John and I have been lurking for some time
Eleafe I stick with a Lemo tank wrapped at 1.2 ohms / usually vape at 14.5 watts
Vapr Shark DNA 30 with a Lemo tank wrapped at 0.8 ohms/ usually vape at 17.0 watts
Sigelei 30 watt mini with a Kanger sub ohm tank 0.5 ohms / usually vape at 25 watts
I use 100% mg Nic 50/50 vg/pg ( nect time will be 100% PG )
I mix most at 6% mg at 60 VG/ 40 PG but I think I am going to start 70/30 soon
ok first recipe ... this is a RY4 mix, I seem to like the richer darker and a small hint of Tab flavors .. I like the fruits but they get boring to me..
RY4 10%
Vanilla bean gele (new stuff) 4%
Orange cream 3%
Banana Nut Bread 3%
Marshmellow 3%
Almond 2%
Sweetner 3%
This is a creamy slight nut tab with a hint of orange.. please remember taste is different for some so play around with it
This is my Honey Tobacco.. not heavy on the tobacco or honey but a sweet creamy vape ..
RY4 8%
Almond 7%
Honey Tobacco 3%
Marshmellow 2%
Vanilla Bean gele 3%
I know its similar to the first but taste way different..
here is one I make for a friend .. this is simple .. and I am going to play around with it later .. see what I can come up with.. but this good and easy right out of the mix
Champagne 10%
Strawberry ripe 6%
Juicy Peach 4 %
easy peasy
I am still reading thru this long topic ..LOL.. but wanted to say thank you to Bill and everyone else .. I am going to mix this weekend ... I do have a heating question.. with without searching .. did anybody ever come up with a good plain dark Vanilla on its own ? I I also seen mention of Strawberry Short cake? Thank you guys !!!

Hey John! Great post! +1!
Thanks for sharing with us, the recipes look fantastic! Looks like your juices are taking off! Good luck and thanks for coming out of lurker status!
Don't have a dark vanilla, but there are several great strawberry shortcake recipes on here. If you have trouble locating anything, let us know. There are many participants on this thread, and a lot of great stuff. Many remember all kinds of recipes that are super good and helpful to new and learning mixologists!

I am sorry .. The only one I use is the double .. Didn't even think about that when I posted
Wow,that's a nice stash of flavors ya got going haha,mine is growing pretty rapidly but still nowhere near that.These all sound like really good recipes,although i dont have honey tobacco so i will have to wait on that one,the others i do have all the flavors,and next time i mix,i will give those a try.I would have never thought to add orange to an ry4 mix,but it sounds really interesting.Hello all, My name is John and I have been lurking for some time

On the vanilla question,have you tried vanilla bean gelato on it's own?I think it has a pretty deep vanilla flavor,or have you tried tfa vanillan,i have that one,but haven't used it yet.Also,you may wantto try making a vanilla extract,i have vanilla beans on the way to make an extract,but they need to soak for around 8 weeks before i have a finished flavor,so it will be a while on that one haha.

When I use other fruits like Strawberry ripe I up the percentage .. The orange cream , meandering Orange is very strong .. When I first started making this about a year ago it was more tobacco and Orange .. But over time with tweaking it all blends nicely .. Hints of flavor instead over over powering one flavor
those 2 are my ADV .. I always go back .. I also made a honey Kentucky bourbon.. I have to do some adjustments with that .. Honey is a little over powering .. Might even use the Honey tobacco with it instead .. Just like everyone else .. It's the time .. Lol .. Work and home .. Mix when Ya can
I have mixed the V bean gel by itself at 10 % but I want a little
More complex flavor .. Maybe a little whipped cream , French and that .. I have all the Flavors .. Bean , custard and so on ..
I was going to also add.. that i have purchased a bunch of the new DX flavors and I personally CANT tell a difference in flavor.. also some flavors really change with the OHM load and heat
Trophyfish thanks for letting us know. I ended up ordering the DX versions of a few flavors in my last order, which will hopefully be here Monday (the weather is playing hell with us this week). I ordered these DX versions somewhat "blindly" so to speak since I've seen almost no info anywhere about how the DX version vs. the non-DX tastes, and most of the recipes I've been really looking hard at don't use the DX versions. However since I have never tasted the "regular" versions of any of these flavorings anyway, being new to DIY, I have a clean slate as far as comparison goes.
Hopefully there will actually be some benefit to going with the DX flavors over the regular ones... I am not sure at this point.
Here's an easy one:
white chocolate 6%
Graham cracker dark 6%
Bavarian cream 6%
marshmallow 6%
I was getting frustrated trying to make the perfect S'more so I just made one "backwards", i.e. white for milk chocolate, dark for clear GC, regular for toasted MM (wow is toasted marshmallow nasty!) and Bavarian cream because..........well, because Bavarian cream. Now I just need a snappy name for it like Dark Mystery or something.

Has anyone been playing with TPA's Sassafras Flavoring in e-liquid. I find that a couple of drops added to a hot cup of tea is quite good and brings back memories of my childhood. Maybe a 5 to 10% mix with a base would be something to try. Just wondering if somebody has tried to come up with something.

Also in root beer float where it excels. Recipes posted fairly recently on this too! Good luck!Has anyone been playing with TPA's Sassafras Flavoring in e-liquid.

Nic: what do you (or anyone) make of a 28g, 12 wrap coil on a 5/64ths rod that is reading at 2.1 ohms on my Magma/iStick setup? According to the calculators I've used, it should be more in the range of 1.5. I can't think what accounts for the difference. This is my first coil ever built, and it's been a long time coming, so I'm pleased, regardless, but it takes a long time to heat up even at 15w and although the flavor is there, it is giving a super heavy throat hit while also not producing much vapor. The vapor is cool, which is fine with me, but I don't understand where the throat hit comes from, considering it's neither very hot, nor giving much in the way of clouds. Any ideas?

I am not quite caught up with this thread, but noticed a few pages back people were making flavor purchases and wanted to share a great blog by RocketPuppy that has tons of useful links to suppliers and other information like a pretty comprehensive list of flavor abbreviations.
