My lorann's flavors come in tomorrow but my pg and vg came in today. I was wondering what to look for in for flavoring? Whats good and what's bad? I found some bakers imitation vanilla flavor, victoria pure orange extract and clear value imitation vanilla extract in the cupboard. i was wondering what to look for and what to avoid ingredient-wise so I know for future reference, and whether or not I can use these.

You don't want to use "cooking/baking" flavorings - you want flavor concentrates more geared toward ejuice. I did start with some LorAnn flavorings, and those have worked for me. I've since snagged Capella and a whole BUNCH of TFA flavorings.

You want to avoid oil-based flavorings - they don't disperse well in PG/VG. Some folks stay away from diketones.

Sketch has mentioned some good sites for flavorings.

I actually read the lorann's thread before I ordered
