Hey everybody, I need some help with my Hangsen fruits.

Strawberry at 3% tastes perfumey.
Kiwi at 5% very weak
Juicy Peach at 7% - I can only taste it in the middle of the exhale. It's a great flavor, however I can only taste it for half a sec lol.
Mango 5% - very nice flavor but I want more strength! Should I go up?
Pineapple 5% - same thing as mango
Passion fruit 5% weak flavor?

Can't help with the strawberry because I never had it. But try doing 7 - 9% on the rest and see if that helps. Also letting it sit for a day or 2 may help.

Thanks for the recommendation Danny. 6% pineapple is a bit weak for me. I tried a 10% mix I did awhile back and the taste was distorted, so that may be too high. Do you do 7-9% on most of the fruits? If so, do you ever go that high on a recipe? For example, if I wanted pineapple as the main flavor, with little accent notes.

Not Danny but I like the pineapple as a stand alone at 7%. Plenty of flavor but not cloying to me. I suspect 10% may be a little too much. Tried the juicy peach but wasn't too impressed by it. For my peach flavor I much prefer the Flavour Art White Peach. I haven't tried your other flavorings.

I thought I was the only one who didn't like Juicy Peach. Mixed that at 7% and could barely tell it was peach. I do like the white peach better, but I still haven't got the right %s for that one either.

I do tobaccos and my sweet spot is 7%. I'm a tobacco and desert vapor and not so much straight fruit. I use fruit from time to time combined with other ingredients as a change of pace vape.

Thanks Danny, You mentioned sometime ago that you like your flavors on the strong side, at least for tobaccos. Is that also the case for Cola? I personally like them on the medium side, for example RY1 at 5%. I was also wondering if you have ever combined a bit of Cola with your tobaccos. I see some potential there.

I have mixed cola with tobacco and the cola is too overpowering even at a super low ratio. :2c:
-Dirk

Absolutely agree with that .. I keep "tweaking" the recipe, and reducing it .. still too much for my tobacco recipe
I also think it super sweet. Way to sweet for me.
It doesn't even work with a rum and coke recipe.
I don't know which one is the worse ... to strong, or to sweet ??
Just about given up on trying to use it in anything,
The "taste" of coke is there, so I may dilute the flavoring bottle in half and try it again.
Problem is .. how to get rid of the extra sweetness, and still keep some "coke" taste.
May try it by some other company's.
Still playing with it, but your opinion is dead on (in my opinion) :oops:
