Calling all DIY'ers

Thanks, makes it easier to decide then. Yellow peach was my first choice, but then I read about white peach and then I saw juicy peach so I ended up confused. So many choices.

I'd go with FA white peach.
 
Which peach to buy? Cap yellow peach, Flavour Art white peach or TFA juicy peach. I am looking for a natural peach flavour to use in a Ice tea, not a candy peach. Any ideas?

I don't know which to recommend personally. Yellow Peach, I've used only in the Gravel Pit clone, and it is very nice, but I do not know what its like on its own.

I will say though, TFA Juicy Peach has never impressed me at all.
 
My Traditional Juice Co. "Indian Giver" clone:

Cap VBIC - 5%
FA Meringue - 0.5%
Cap VC1 - 2%
Ethyl Vanillin 10% - 1-2% depending how much vanilla you want.
Sucralose - 1% (optional)

5 days minimum steep for the VBIC to "open up"

Not 100% spot on but really close enough imho if you like indian giver ;-)

Ooh thanks bud. I will have to try this one.

Awesome getting juice advice by someone like you!!!
 
Well well well, I am definitely starting to get the hang of tobaccos.

I suspect out tabocconistssss @Andre and @Silver might even approve of this one:

Sweet Virginia (its not really all that sweet)

(tobacco base)
FA Virginia 2%
FA Perique Black 0.35%

TFA Coconut Extra 1%
TFA Toasted Marshmallow 1.25%
Acetyl Pyraline 0.3%
TFA Graham Cracker (for texture) 0.5%
TFA Toasted Almond 0.5%

Mixed at 70VG

Not fully steeped after 10 days, probably needs at least 2 weeks.

Sounds good, I want to buy a bottle ;)

Generally tobaccos can keep changing for up to around a month in my experience

Buy... pfft. Your money is no good here :)

I promise you this one will be a lot better than the one tasted.

I actually don't know how to use that FA Storm, as used last time.

That sounds really lovely @rogue zombie !
I'd love to taste it. Perhaps you can bring it in one of your devices to the meet?
EDIT - of course, I am assuming you will manage to not vape it all - hehe

Well if it's a a lot better, it must be pretty damn good!! The previous one was solid but missing something. Looking forward to trying it!

Is that FA Dark Vapure, or Perique Black?

Looks good - I freaking love toasted almond with tobaccos.

Sounds great.
 
So as ive been vaping my own DIY mix, ive noticed that they arent as strong anymore? They are all around 20% flavour but im struggling to taste them now. I never really smoked maybe for like 2-3 months, not enough for the to render my taste and i did taste my DIY flavour very well. Any idea whats happening. Maybe cotton needs a change, but after 2-3 days?

Many change cotton daily, even more frequently with dark juices.
 
I would change the cotton daily, firstly.

Maybe also post the recipes that are going mute. 20% might work with some recipes, but may be high depending on the concentrates you're using.

Ive heard many times that too much flavour can actually end up muting juices.

Also avoid EM like the plague.

I've realized that it really something that you have to know when to use. Even 0.5% can destroy flavor
 
Haven't posted here in a while, but this came out quite nice for me.

Almond Rooibos

A very subtle, almond-infused and smooth black rooibos with some hints of caramel. Quite surprised with this thus far!

ECIGGIES - Rooibos 15%
CAP - Amaretto 10%
TFA - Coconut 8%
TFA - Caramel 2%

1 drop per 5ml Acetyl Pyrazine

Mixed at max VG (65%, due to weak PG-based flavours)

Steep at least a week, with regular quick degassings, for Amaretto aftertaste to mellow and Rooibos to develop. Rooibos will develop for quite some time even after a week. Don't be scared for the high flavour percentages - most of these are quite weak flavours.

Reasonings:

Amaretto goes well with caramel or chocolate. Coconut (not Coconut Extra) adds a smoothness to the mix which I like, without EM's taste nor the heaviness of creams (and it doesn't taste much like coconut either).

The Rooibos from ECIGGIES is quite weak though... I am still hoping it will develop further, otherwise I will try another Rooibos concentrate or will try making my own.

You can swap the Caramel for chocolate, but since most chocolates are also quite weak flavours, it will boost the flavour percentages up even more. You can also drop the coconut and replace it with some Sweet Cream (or any heavier cream of your choice).

Sounds delicious, thank you
