[markdouglas1975]

can anyone help l recently made a cola up for a friend who requested a really good true cola.
i ve made 1 using inawera cola taste fantastic all good but.

it has a thin film sitting on top shake it and 2 hours later its back is this oil based or is it just
flavour separation.

thanks vapers would love some help on this one.

I highly doubt the Inawerna is oil-based as the brand was created specifically for vaping - but that is strictly my guess

[JuicyLucy]

I gave my best guess - it's an educated guess - but still a guess

WLL is a real expert though - he'll be around at some point, I'm sure

That's how you call somebody that knows a hell of a lot more than you do. I just got diy supplies in. Haven't even started yet, so I can't help.

I wouldnt go that far lol. they dont even provide SDS sheets of any type... I dont believe, I could be wrong but I would not trust them any more than I would flavor west lol.
Im going to check a bottle at work tomorrow and do some experimenting.

It wouldn't be surprising if Inawera uses some citrus essential oils in that flavor, since "cola" in general is citrus + spices.
Many citrus-y flavors include essential oils - for example: https://shop.perfumersapprentice.com/componentlist.aspx?sku_search=17943.
All you can do is shake well, include some PG (it's even harder to distribute essential oil into pure VG) - or find a Cola flavor that uses less essential oil. I don't have a problem with FlavourArt Cola separating, even in pure VG.

PG-based (or alcohol-based) flavors that include essential oils are not "oil-based" flavorings. Oil-based flavorings do exist (for flavoring chocolate candy, for example); they consist primarily of vegetable oil, usually - as a carrier in place of PG.

In a different thread he asked me about it because no one was answering here, told him I was keeping my trap shut because I didn't know - then overruled my better judgement and made a guess

New I shoulda just left it there

lol I think you are awesome and any help is better than none, collectivlely we can all get to the right answer. see how quickly HIC made me look silly with that poetic answer lol ... #teamVUdiy

Can’t add much here as I’ve never used that flavor. I can confirm what HIC said about FA cola. It does not separate.

I did some searching on various websites about INW cola and didn’t find any comments about it separating. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t though. I personally wouldn’t worry about it and just shake it before you use it.
