Hello.
I have from the very start of my DIY mixing adventures been fantasising about a ADV style vanilla e-juice but such a concoction still eludes me.
Talking to a guy who works in my local vape shop did point to the problem, I said "I want to figure out a vanilla recipe" and he said something like "vanilla and what more? i don't think vanilla can be good on it's own".
Please note that the actual conversation wasn't in English and I find it hard to translate well enough to convey the point of it all.
But he thought that I wouldn't be able to create a "only vanilla" vape, thus far he have been correct.
The very first e-juice that I bought was Liqua's Vanilla and it tasted like vanilla and burnt sugar, which could be one approach(combining a vanilla flavor with something like TPA Brown Sugar).
Let me just list my vanilla flavors from the top of my head, I'll write the ones I like the most first:
TPA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
TPA Vanilla Swirl
TPA Bavarian Cream
FA Vanilla Tahity
FA Vanilla Classic
DV Creme Anglaise
Vanillin(PG solution consiting of 10% Vanillin Crystals)
I feel as I am missing a couple of flavours, but besides the ones above I also have:
FW, CAP & TPA Vanilla Custard(CAP V1 & V2)
TPA French Vanilla
TPA French Vanilla Delux
TPA Vanilla Bean Gelato
CAP Bavarian Cream
CAP VBIC
CAP Simply Vanilla
FA Vanilla Bourbon
MB Epic Vanilla
MB Creamy Vanilla
and.... There might be some more.
But the point is that thus far the best vanilla vape I have come up with is this:
4% TPA VBIC
And that's it, and I don't really know what to try next which is why I thought I would start this thread and see what you all might have to say about this.
I feel as there is some other flavors that might be important for nailing a really good vanilla flavor that I might not realize, and I don't have any objections to introducing other flavors as long as they would stay as more of an background flavor. There are many good vanilla flavors but they don't seem work very well together, I tried 4% TPA VBIC + 4% TPA Vanilla Swirl and that didn't improve 4% VBIC on it's own. But I will try that again with 1/4 as much Vanilla Swirl.
Oh and I have often used <=1% FA Caramel to add a sweetness that vanilla flavors often need while often lacks.
Regards
