OK
so this is all prettty new to me. My first order was for high nic liquid - bought the VG, some vanilla flavor and Wilton's raspberry candy flavoring.
Raspberry from Wiltons is AWFUL - finally tried a drop on my finger and it's nothing even similar to anything raspberry.
The preflavored liquids are bland at best - with little flavor and almost can't tell the chocolate from the banana or strawberry - except by the faint difference in smell.
Had planned to dilute with the VG - but over the counter flavors are so yuuuuuukkkkk and the flavored niq liq so bland...... I know there's got to be a way to do this and get the nic level down and flavor up.
Suggestions are much appreciated - I know I want to do this - and would like to actually experience what I keep reading about with the flavors.
Is there a way to 'sweeten' them a bit?
Thanks - NoSmokeKat
I dislike VG and find that it'll pretty much kill any flavor if you add too much. I try to keep it at no more than 20%. Try LorAnn flavorings (you want the water soluable ones, most pharmacies carry LorAnn but they're usually behind the counter so you have to ask. They're more concentrated than Wiltons.
I do sympathize with the flavor issues though. I just mixed up a batch of Mint Chocolate Chip using LorAnn flavoring and I can't even taste the chocolate. And that's with unflavored juice as a base! I think some flavors come through better than others...
