The super concentrate are lower percentage flavors, anywere from .25 to 4% depending on the flavor. I noticed all the other flavors you ordered are the VG versions which use a much higher percentage and take longer to steep. With the VG I would say somewhere in the 5 to 15% range depending on the flavor.

There bubblegum and pink candy are real good but never tried it in the VG. I hear great things about the strawberry milkshake in the SC, don't know about the VG version.

Yeah I have a recipe that requires a couple of these so after I got those, I just picked random stuff that sounded good.

Didn't think of going back to the super concentrates.

Are some of these to be mixed standalone & some used as other flavorings like from FA in a recipe ?

I used the all VG peanut brittle

RF recommended it be used at 12%, which I did

Broke into it at about a week - flipping delicious

Also tried all PG pancake and also the PG peanut brittle. The pancakes really weak at the recommended 2.5%. Haven't gotten into the PG peanut brittle yet

They don't have a PG flavoring. Only VG and SC. There are a couple of the flavors that are much better flavor wise and body mouthfeel wise in the VG version. Sweetened Condensed milk is one, I only buy in VG version. Bread Pudding and Cinnamon Custard are still in comparison stage, but those might be a VG one as well.

You should have ordered the Super Concentrates. The VG based are very weak. I'm sorry :(

This post bummed me out a bit. I've heard good things and like I said, already had a couple VG ones on my list to order before I saw this thread.

If being weak means I need to use 10-12%, I'm ok with that. If I like a flavor, I'll order the SC next time. If you're saying they'll still be weak at 10-12, then I'll be mad lol.

I'll keep my hopes up for now.

My average with the VG flavorings are 15-20% if using as a single flavor. Just remember to have patience with them, they take quite a while to steep due to the VG suspension, so if it's blah at 3 weeks, don't give up. Some change drastically at the 7-8 week with the VG's. But if it's one of their good flavorings, it will still be good. You just will have to use more to get similar results is all. Don't worry about it, I didn't mean it that way, I'm sorry. I just meant it that you would have gotten more for the money with the SC's due to percentages used. You'll do just fine :)

Might be time for me to finally try out heat steeping. I'm not good at waiting that long :p

You could look at it this way also ... they are phasing out their VG line so those flavors might not be available in VG at a later date should you have waited.

Anyone else order from here during this promotion?

I ordered on the 5th, shipped on the 6th and delivery date says the 13th.

I live 3 hours away from real flavors and my order left the state.

Lol! I didn't get mine yet either. I think it's because they used Ups mail innovations. It then has to transfer to usps. Takes a long time. But it's crazy since you live 3 hrs away.

Yeah I emailed them and they explained what mail innovations is, but it says expedited. Guess expedited means different things to different people lol.

Never using that shipping ever again.
