Capella Bacon Flavor

[Willbo]

My bacon turned out to be TFA, thought it was capella. I wimped out and went for 0.5% as mentioned in one of my three donut efforts. It was the only donut fail of the 3. I wonder if I just got liquid smoke as well as I couldnt actually taste the bacon and I thought joy and a little bit of maple syrup may have sweetened it? I just got a reasonable but dull donutty funnel cake with surprisingly not very sweet maple syrup with a faint fried burnt taste in the background and mine was left for 3/4 weeks steeping. Wasnt an awful donut but the other two I made were far better, think the bacon has failed me too

It does taste smokey, but it's supposed to. I suppose it's just a matter of taste, but I really like it with the caramel and apple. Never thought about mixing it with donut, and certainly not Joy.....you should try Bubba's Pig Sap from High Desert Vapes.

first thing I did was turn my wattage down, the smokiness confused me that I had a mild dry hit http://www.leoliquidvapor.com/leo-liquid-vapor.html that was the site I saw a donut flavour I fancied trying with bacon in. And Im in the UK, too many youtube review links led me to it

my version was a fail, sure the real one is lovely

Have to admit the bacon is strangely growing on me. Think it has to go with something sweet, can imagine it working in RY4 recipes or with something quite sour or citrusy like an apple. Dont think I could go above .5% though you are brave Teresa It definately different and adds an edge to a recipe, but it still isnt really bacon to me

1% is definately strong as a shake and vape, but steeping mellows it out considerably. Bacon takes time to learn to play well with others.

bacons had about 3 weeks and tamed maple syrup, joy and a donut down to a whimper for me...at half a percent, I think Id do it @ .25% if it was one I would retry to do....but 1% wow, that takes the bacon (sorry couldnt resist) Im (pork) scratching(s) the bottom of the barrel with such humour
