FlavourArt (FA) and Inawera (INW) are probably the best; The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) and Cappella (CAP) next best, though I won't use any other cream flavor than Cappella's Sweet Cream -- it's spot-on authentic, AND diketone-free -- I keep 2 diff bottles in use, one without the dripper tip for mixing, and one with, for adding drops to food, it's so absolutely realistic -- makes a terrific addition to a low-fat diet! Molinberry's Glamour Chocolate is the only chocolate flavor I use, because it's the only one I've been able to taste -- some people seem to have tastebud-blindspots for certain flavors. There are a lot of other brands, but I've either never tried any of their flavors, or wasn't too impressed with what I did try.
FA also makes some outstanding additives, for flavor-shaping.... Flash, which increases throat hit; Bitter Wizard is great to add to tobacco vapes, to remove the inherent sweetness of VG. The best sucralose I've tried is definitely TFA; I dunno what they do to it, but it doesn't have that artificial whang as some other brands of sucralose have. FA's MTS Wizard seems to help with smoothness; TFA's Koolada gives a cool sensation without the icky taste of menthol. Acetyl Pyrazine is the basis of most nutty flavors, and is good in "bready/cakey" type flavors, or tobacco flavors, but it's really strong; smells just like Fritos, and if used too heavily, tastes like sweat socks.If I want some of that sort of flavor in a vape, I generally prefer to use TFA's DX (diketone-free) Hazelnut; it doesn't taste extremely like hazelnuts, but the AP component is great deal more subtle, not over-the-top "fritos flavor". Ethyl maltol is sometimes used as a mild sweetener, but apparently it's more valuable to enhance the "feel" of a vape, gives more richness than merely sweetness. For that, I usually just use TFA's Cotton Candy flavor -- Cotton Candy is just ethyl maltol in a 10% concentration; using the TFA Cotton Candy flavor maintains uniformity and repeatability.

.. i am curious about all the different sweeteners.. they all sweeten inIt's about finding what works, I tried loads of stuff an now use vanilla custard as my DIY. It's a stand alone flavour so is simple and works. In between when I'm too busy to mix or have ran out I use dinner lady lemon tart.Awesome!! thanks for taking the time for all that, I need advise
different ways.. like cooking, if you want a sweet added sugar taste, or something that isnt really sweet, but will help enhance the
sweetness of your main flavors...
And I have some expensive juices now that smell like dirty socks.. what a sinking feeling to pay that much, and it stinks...
So, what are your favorite flavor profiles? I like some fruit vapes, if they dont taste like candy, dessert type stuff, donuts, pie
cream stuff like ice cream and cake, baked stuff... cheese cake, key lime pie, shit like that, but not overly sweet.
I don't like really fruity flavours like mixed berry etc... so sickly but then again the women at the vape shop said she couldn't stand lemon tart. She was using strawberry milk an I tasted it, it was the worst flavour ever!!
Wtf is the point in not inhaling a cigarette?? What a stupid fucking statement
Yeah people like some yucky shit
I actually agree 100%. It's a very good way to dial in your vape & I actually prefer it too TC. If i'm not using my power curves I still at least set a pre heat.

But some dessert flavors too; I was seriously into Blueberry Muffin for quite a few months, but I like it best when I combine it with Banana Nut Bread. Most actual-food desserts I prefer are on the not-so-sweet side -- muffins, cake donuts, bread pudding, used to be wildly in love with egg custard until I became unable to digest egg yolks. So most of the vapes I like best aren't tooth-aching sweet, at least not anymore -- when I first started, thx to my dysfunctional tastebuds, I had to use 2%-2.5% TFA sweetener in everything I mixed, but I've now gotten to the point that if I use any sweetener at all, it's never more than .5%, usually .1%-.2%, and sometimes I forego the sucralose altogether and just use a smidge of EM (cotton candy).Different strokes for different folks. Personally it's not a daily thing for me, I don't find it vapes any different to my Kanthal or clapton coils...
he was saying many people smoke analogs direct to lung (DL) instead of mouth to lung
It's fucking stupid though. Direct lung. How the fuck can something go direct to your lung without going through your mouth first and I was just stating that reviewers who show off by not inhaling to make bigger clouds.
They do inhale...
For a smooth cool vape I usually adhere to single battery tube mechs and small, refined, Nichrome80 dual coil builds that ohm out at ~0.1 ohms. Occasionally I'll put a larger but still refined Nichrome80 single coil build in one of my 24mm Goon RDAs, and that ohms out at ~0.5 ohms so not usable on a mech for me and because it's bigger it has more ramp up so then the preheat with the power curve still works best for me─albeit at not so high watts. But I also like a smooth warm wet vape on all different kinds of setups. These include series mech and para/series mech, PWM,... and also power curves.
I don't see how if they are not even holding it in they can be inhaling??I Tried to explain it to you though, previously
Also, the notion of DL, although if you take it literally then you of course have a point, though however refers to the direct step of inhaling from mouth to lung, vs dragging into mouth, removing mouth-piece, inhaling...
Just like TC if you get it set up right it works really well

How long the inhaled vapor is held in, is individual preference(like with cigs) - inhalation means letting the substance into the lungs simply. If you take your mouthpiece and instead of sucking vapor into your mouth, then you instead try to take a breath of "air" directly from the mouthpiece - think hooka's or taking a xxxx-hit(from my older days), or maybe a diving-mask.
Too word it another way then they are not taking it back & it might be irrelevant to you but the original post wasn't even fucking meant for you. You've just chose to interfereHow long the inhaled vapor is held in, is individual preference(like with cigs) - inhalation means letting the substance into the lungs simply.

Anyway, how others choose to vape, or inhale or whatever, is imho pretty irrelevant
No need to apologize, it's me who should be saying sorry. I get stressed to easily with people who don't know me.
Vaping the way you describe would only make me seriously want to go back to smoking cigarettes, and, smoking cigarettes was seriously wearing me out. Vaping the way I vape is still taking the least amount of effort from me to get me what I really want.
The guy at the local vape shop looked at me like I was from Mars when I told him I only vaped in TC mode, and that I wasn't buying any of his mods cuz they all sucked for TC, as he sat there taking one or two second pulls at obv 100+ watts.
yeah, my preheat watts are up close to 100 on some of my current 0.15 - 0.25ohm builds (used to go higher watts and lower ohms but started building slightly higher ohm recently) but they only hit that for a second or two when I watch the display and I can pull on them until timeout if I want with the temp down in the 420 - 450 range.
I have 20 - 30 tc capable mods and only one (the last one I purchased) has a non-adjustable wattage (revenant, 60w max non adjustable in tc) in tc mode. every other mod can be adjusted in 1w or less increments in tc mode. I have no idea how to vape in wattage or tc mode at sub 10 watts but plenty of mods (pico for example) can do it at that low of watts.
me neither but they could be built probably... not by me and my shaky hands since they would require 30ga or higher probably.
welcome to 2016
most any mod from the past 2 yrs can do what you want it to
Too true. It pains me to see so many people vape the same (or almost) way most vapers do only because they've been led to believe that this is the best way to vape. You don't know which way is the better way for you until you've done at least some experimenting/exploring. Vaping was born out of experimenting and exploring, and, above all, out of breaking away from the habitual. We now see an opposing trend. And it's causing more than just a few people to not see why vaping isn't helping them enough to stay off cigarettes. That's what pains me most.
But that's not usually the case; whether it takes only a little effort and self-control, or it takes all you've got and seems like more is required... SOME effort is necessary.I'm after one of them hohm wrecker mods, someone was selling one but at the time I didn't have the money. Just keeping a look out
