Through my Attempts, or Stupidity - (You decide) - to Make any kind of acceptable coffeeish Mix I have come to realize TPA COFFEE CLEAR has a chemical reaction issue.
Coffee Clear will react with Sweet cream or any other flavor containing a cream and change the chemical structure as to produce a sickening Powder flavor result.
I have put a lot of time into NOT getting Coffee clear to work for anything. I am not so sure it is even remotely a coffee.
Anyway. I posted a bit a while back about CC and sweet cream. It turns out even something simple like CC and cappuccino yealds the same results.

Even 1 drop of coffee Clear in any mix with cream and the mix is ruined. Completely changed from any expected results.

My Advice - Don't even buy this one!

I enjoy learning and TPA Flavors have had some Nice ups along with a few downs, but over-all good for getting into DIY.
Unfortunately this is one Flavor that needs to go back to the lab and be autopsied.

*fully aware of coffee Extraction, not the point, not ready nor have the time yet.*

Try the Vz's coffee super concentrate. It mixes nice with creams and taste great. One of my ADV's. As it is a Super concentrate start with 1.5%.

A nice recipe is

VZ's SC coffee 1.5%
TFA Deluce de leache 2%
EM 2%

Thank you for this and being the guinea pig. Don't think I could take much more.
Next few loose bucks, I get an order in.
Plugging into ejuicemeup now for future use.

the tfa caramel cap is good at 1 drop per 20 ml, imo

Been debating trying that with a few % of regular TFA Cap. I pick up the burnt taste to easily on the CarCap. Just hate mixing a 20ml test batch.
Also considering doing a 1drop to 1-2ml CarCap dilution then working something smaller. Just don't want to get ahead of myself and create something good that I cannot rework in bigger batches properly.

So much to learn - so little time

I just wanted to say to everyone that if you go to The Perfumers Apprentice Coffee Extra (Clear) is awesome in all of my personal and commercial e-liquids. I Use Sweet Cream/Bavarian Cream and a few other cream flavors. You must remember that taste and smell are very subjective to the individual.. If you go to their website it has 10 or 11 reviews where people love it. There are so many variables that are in play here, cost and quality of PG/VG cost and quality of Nic Liquid, time allowed to steep, did you Mix it in a clean environment etc.... So please order a 4ml of the flavoring and give it a try at around 3.5% or .35ml
