I tried to make my own cheesecake ejuice today and it's awful. Maybe if it steeps but Im thinking if it's this bad probably not.
The thing that's ruining it the most imo is I added a tiny amount of chai tea! But it taste like if you leave a black tea bag in the water WAY to long and that's all I can taste. Idk it's just kinda blowing my mind because I only added like 4 drops of the chai tea and my recipe has 5-6 other flavors with more then that.

Should I up percentages? I can't really taste the crust or cheese cake. Honestly Camry taste much of anything besides that dang tea.
Here's my really bad recipe. I'd like to emulate the pebbles cheesecake. I have been Vaping it every night for awhile when me and my wife finally sit down and have our chai tea and watch tv.

I would go back to basics a lot of flavours in there maybe start with a couple and add a more as you go along my BOURBON recipes to partner a whisky was a step by step approach

Sounds to me like the Chai Tea is likely a very strong flavoring, in itself. You might benefit from trying that in a single mix, then find the % that works best for it. I have flavors that at even 0.25% are in incredibly strong tasting, still.

Cheesecake, GC Cheesecake, Bavarian Cream are all long steepers. Your tea(I never tried) is most likely all you taste because the others are being overtaken because the steepers haven't had time to mature. CAP Cheesecake is 10 days. TFA GC Cheesecake will take 4-5 days before it comes out of hiding. Don't dump, give it more time. Try some at 4-6-10 and 15 days. That will give you an ideal of what takes how long to steep. In the mean time, you may want to mix(work on) a basic cheesecake base that you enjoy before adding other flavors.
Using what you have on hand, something like this.
Cheesecake(CAP) 4-5%
GC Cheesecake(TFA/TPA) 3%
Bavarian Cream(CAP) 2%
I personally like to add a tad(.5-1%) of FA Yogurt to my cheesecake.

Wow thanks so much! Looks like I might have to order yogurt though. Everyone seems to put it in there cheesecake recipes.

Ok so I finally made this and was still getting that tea flavor! Obviously I didn't use tea this time so I investigated and think it's my fruity flakes! All the other flavors smell great but that one, that one smell like an old tea bag tastes! Lol disappointing because Idk what fruity pebbles will be good? The one I have is flavor west.
Luckily this ones not as strong and I'm hoping I can salvage it. I made a bigger batch thinking if you made it it'd probably be good not that it's your fault because its not.

Yeah I mean this ones better! Probably because I didn't think up the recipe lol. Once the cheesecake kicks in this will probably be vapable at least.

From when I first started DIY I never make clones but will look at a recipe for ideas on something to create that is all my own. Easier that way it was what I did wrong it is what I did that wasn't what I planned on. No one to blame but myself and what was it I did that did not result in the desired finished product? Hmmm..........

If its bitter and gross all you need to do is add 1 percent sweener and it will taste better. All those fancy juices you buy are boosted with sweetner.

Mine didn't turn out too bad, but I'm really not a big fan of TFA Fruit Circles. I got 30mls of FC laying around.:huh:

I tried sweetener but it's not taking that tea flavor away. Idk it's hard to describe, the good part is that it's getting better so I'm happy with that.

I think once the steep brings out the cheesecake all will be good. (Or better lol) Do you favor any other fruity cereal flavors?
