The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

I even created Labels for them for a laugh

That's a fantastic idea
Visit one of the better shops in your area, and let them taste test.
They will line your pockets, and have you making it for them to carry as a specialty
There's a lot of Throne lovers out there, that will just HAVE to try it .. it's a novelty.

I might if times were different. Obviously I couldn't use the names officially for copyright reasons like I said. Secondly I would have to go into serious business unless I were happy with breaking at least 10 local laws. Thirdly there are no vape shops where I come from, only a couple of companies that import some hardware and some Dekang flavours. You might find some juices at tobacconists who probably get their supplies from the aforementioned importer. Fourthly the EU directive will probably make it impossible for me to sell anything unless on the black market (vide reason 2). Fifthly I'm too freakin old for all this.

I mixed the attached Tropical Punch on May 22 and am vaping it in a Lemo 2 with a 1.8ohm coil at 11 watts. I'm not quite sure about it. It's not bad but not sweet and a little heady if you get my meaning... like a fruity inhale and an alcohol exhale. Might be worth trying.

Doctors rebut misguided, uneducated responses about E-cig safety!

Great Read!

Papi,

I noticed something you need to change in your E-juice Me Up calculator when doing mixes.

The box that says "O" VG / PG for the flavors may need to be checked?
(Unless they're PG or VG based flavors).

It changes the calculations just a bit!

Actually quite a bit, I just double checked!

Ok so I guess I am misunderstanding also... aren't most flavors PG based? I have this box unchecked on all of my recipes too... and move the 100 over to VG for the few VG flavors I got from NN.

If you are not sure, uncheck it, if you know for a fact it is PG or VG based then leave it unchecked.

It makes a big difference on how concentrated your end results will be!

If the flavors are NOT PG or VG based the calculator will add PG or VG to make the ratios correct to achieve the desired PG to VG ratio.

It can be tricky... if you leave them unchecked, MOST of the time your recipes will come out as expected.

For instance if using Sweet Orange, it is NOT PG or VG based! So you would check the box.

If you use LorAnn, which are primarily oil based, you would check the box!

Hope this better explains what this option does.

Ok, I think so... lol

I use mostly TFA - I just checked a few of my flavors on their site and it says "Artificial Flavors, Propylene Glycol, Water", although they have a warning somewhere that says some of their flavors are flammable lol - I guess those have alcohol?

I don't do any citrus flavors -- well, I have a fruit loops flavor, does that count as citrus? I can see where the citrus flavors, and maybe some others, might be different.

NN prominently says their flavors are VG. I've noticed some other vendors don't say much about the base of their flavorings. Frustrating.

Like I mentioned usually leaving it UNCHECKED is the way to go.

If you use a lot of alcohol or oil based flavors, or know for a fact it is NOT PG or VG based, check the box.

Morning guys/gals....love that creative idea Papi! I was thinking of doing baseball themed names at one point for mine Vaping the vaping rabbit's milkman picked up at expo, and wondering why on earth I bought this...????
Hype....I don't find myself impressed at all honestly, thinking of flavoring I could have bought instead...sigh. sometimes I buy to see if I can make something similar, This is a pass for me....meh....hot as heck today, might switch to something cool in a bit....peppermint perhaps.

Going to try to make a Strawberry Yogurt next week. Anybody have a recipe?

 

[Papillon61]

Thanks @ItTechy but all my flavours are 100% PG which is why I never change those boxes. Like most people here I use TFA and then some MB Fruits, and some INW Tobaccos. All are PG based.

 

[Papillon61]

Where do you get your yoghurt flavour. I've been to most sites this side of the pond and no one seems to carry it. I'd love to make a yoghurt something

I thought TFA made one?

I've used Flavor West

I have heard good and bad things about FW's. Was not going to risk it. Maybe I am not doing that next week then. TFA has Greek Yogurt. Is there much difference?

 

[baseballmom]

Yes tfa has Greek yogurt, it's a newer flavor, fw too...saw on reddit about the fw one this week...I don't have either yet....leaning towards tfa, when I wanted to order earlier it was sold out at the time:/ they say yogurt is the new cereal-flavor trend wise???

I dunno. Certainly not my motivation for making it.
I just loved Goodlife's Yoplay Parlay and they discontinued it. A friend gave me a recipe, says it was posted somewhere that it was Goodlife's recipe although I can not imagine them posting it.
Possibly someone just duplicated it.

 

[baseballmom]

There was a yoplait Parlay recipe posted on another forum by a jdollar back in 2012(???? I think), had it bookmarked since always wanted to try something like that....hope it comes close for ya especially if discontinued...

Fifthly I'm too freakin old for all this.

Ditto, I hear every words of that.
I turned down the offer because I could see myself being held responsible for any lawsuits the public wanted to throw at me.
They kept telling me how much money I could make, and I kept seeing myself behind bars
I guess there's a way to do it since it's being done, but I'm too naïve about what could and could not happen.
Like you say "I'm too freakin old for all this"
