So, basically I'm looking for a strawberry that doesn't require much if any steeping time. I'm to impatient lol. I want a candy-ish tasting strawberry that is strong. All the other strawberry flavors I've tried needed to steep forever and then the flavor wasn't very strong. Any help would be great! Thanks guys!!!
I personally can't abide the steeping concept. When I started DIY 2 yrs ago, I learned the "high-flavoring-mix" technique -- use 25%-30% flavoring to avoid steeping altogether, or 20%-25% flavoring to shorten it drastically, from weeks to days or hours.
Check out the "Best recipes (blog)" link in my signature; the first recipe is for strawberry & cream, though it actually tastes more like strawberry custard; it's strong, sweet, vapable right after mixing, and is diketone-free. That's if you use the Original recipe, which is around 31% flavoring. The "Latest" version of that recipe is more suitable for those who are obsessed with waiting for their ejuice, or have fully-recovered tastebuds, as it's around 26% flavoring. I use the Inawera Shisha Strawberry because it's the only one that actually tastes like strawberries; to get a "candyish" feel, perhaps instead of using sucralose for the sweetener, you might try using ethyl maltol (EM), or Cotton Candy flavor.
