Help w buying/choosing flavor concentrates

[Daintanee]

Hello All! I want to start mixing. am ready to place an order with bull city and e liquid mart. I read a list of top 10 flavors in here. I'd like a top 15! I wish to vape as safely as possible. I like to really taste my flavors and I prefer 1.6 ohm coil. I do not like dry vapes/tabacco/coffee. I love cloves and vanilla and hazelnut oh and anise! I like citrusy and tangy. Don't care for the almond flavors I've vapes but van athirst interests me. Thankss

Vanilla Tahiti ... Stupid spell check. My iphone is stupid, not smart

I think you answered your own question.

I'd go with flavors you like. Taste is subjective and the only way to know is to try them.

You can read the recipe thread and then go with something that looks like it will fit your taste buds.

My advice is to get small samples, and as many as possible. Both those places sell little ones, and I've been happy with the products and service from both.

 

[Daintanee]

Yes, I know, but with all I wish to make I am at 30 samples! I am sure that is low too you, but Yikes to me!
At any rate now I am ordering from WL too! I believe I have cut back for now, however one recipe I truly wish to make is Mr. T's very vanilla custard however I have 2 issues ( well w/ the recipe anyway haha!). WL is out of brown sugar extra and all cap custard!
Recipe:
12% cap custard v2
2% tfa dulce de leche
1% tfa brown sugar extra
2% fa vanilla classic
1% fa Vienna cream
.5% fa fresh crem

I was hopeful to substitute cap custard w/ fa as I did not want to use caps especially at that %. I realize it would have a different taste and unsure of % to use and possibly up Vienna cream? But the brown sugar? Not a clue? I'm gonna post this under Mr. T's recipe as well. Thanks HIC! Haha I am in Ky... Reminds me of a hick! H.I.C. Looks more professional!

nope. just nope. FA Custard cannot sub for Capella's custard in any way, shape, or form - especially as a main ingredient. It'll totally screw it up.

Brown Sugar can sometimes be replaced with FA Jamaican Rum or TFA Molasses. Either will of course change the flavor some, but it's usually a similar overall effect. (and rum is yum!)

 

[HeadInClouds]

... for an all-FA version (would still taste very different), Vienna Cream would be a main ingredient, your choice of vanilla(s), maybe Catalan Cream and/or Caramel as supporting flavors. Fresh Cream should probably stay out of it (not sweet). Custard only if you want that citrus tang (or hint of torrone for almond/vanilla/citrus). A hint of rum would be tasty. Marshmallow might have a place. ... At any rate, it would probably revolve around Vienna Cream.

 

[Daintanee]

Well crap! And double crap!! I don't like to wait! Ok then I'll wait on this recipe it will help cut a few samples for now! I just want a good vanilla vape! I'll try out vanilla classic & vanilla bourbon standalone as well as with fresh cream and with Vienna cream for a vanilla vape! On to my carts now! And thanks for helping avoid potential disaster

Something you can try now, Daint:
2-3% FA Vienna Cream
0.5% FA Vanilla Bourbon
0.5% FA Vanilla Classic
0.5-1% FA Caramel
0.5% FA Jamaican Rum (optional)

I think you'll want to skip Fresh Cream..

 

[Daintanee]

Never mind the crap part I love tang and rum. Thank you A WHOLE LOT!

 

[Daintanee]

Ohh goody!!! So happy. Gotta have rum

 

[Thunderball]

Ecig express should have the version 2 of caps van custard. Also on ecig express and ONLY at ecig express , TFA is called " Signature"

Hope this helps.

Wl had a run on the more popular caps because they recently just started selling it there.

Ps..... Wizard doesn't get in a hurry ....

Thanks ThunderMan! I realized the signature part, but need tfa flavors too! Wanted to stick w/ 1 vender. So not gonna happen! I am at 3 already! Ahh, the more the merrier I guess! Thank you! You all are so wonderful and helpful. I am off to my carts now with tears of joy in my eyes.

Hey H.I.C.& Thunder does it matter in taste where I purchase pg/vg since I am not doing nt? From bull city vs. wizard labs vs. Amazon vs. tractor supply??

 

[Daintanee]

In taste & safety wise?

 

[Thunderball]

Hey H.I.C.& Thunder does it matter in taste where I purchase pg/vg since I am not doing nt? From bull city vs. wizard labs vs. Amazon vs. tractor supply??

This is just my limited opinion and others may add some info that I am not aware of.... (disclaimer)

For the most part, I would say that it does not matter. Some VG is sweeter than others. Ive also had someone twll me that they got a slight skin rash from a certain VG they had used once and it cleared up once they switched. This may be a rare case though.
Hic and others have probably taste tested both of these much more than I have. I prefer a sweeter taste in my VG so Ive been using VG and PG from essetial depot http://www.essentialdepot.com/servlet/Categories because at one time it was the best price when buying in bulk. I used to order from Wizard until I got to using so much of the stuff ( I have 3 vapers in the house)..then went to Essential for no other reason tha n the price ans they came recomended.
I havent bought at Tractor supply but Ive heard no negativity from using it. I have some friends that pick it up a Wal-mart..under what brand name I dont know. As long as it says "Kosher USP" you may be alright.

The Nicotine is my big issue. I wont ever order from Wizard again, but thats another story.

 

[Daintanee]

Muchos Gracias! I understand. I was going to go through bull city but am only biting such a small amount. Their prices are better, but as my order is only $11.50 w/o nic. ( I know, go ahead and have yourself a good chuckle. I am sure I will too one day). Their shipping was over $9. I will check on wizard labs shipping costs! Thanks!

 

[Daintanee]

Buying not biting!

Wow.... Mighty high shipping.

I'm on my knees begging you not to buy the wizard nic though. I have two 500 mls in the freezer that I will never use. ( nasty and peppery taste as well as smelly) Makes a great recipie only a good recipie .

Myfteedomsmokes had some good clean nic. Nude nic is suppose to be good as well. The best tasteless nic ( from what I hear) is VT nic.

[Daintanee]

Haha! I am laughing so hard right now I am going to pee my pants! I just looked at my freedom smokes & smallest amount of nic they sell is 2 liters @ $100. Haha! #1. I can't fathom that amount of nic & #2. Wow & I was complaint about $9 in shipping! I think I may move on back to Michigan! Heck no way too cold! I am just going to win the the lotto and travel the world with my lab and clouds of smoke blowing behind me as I go forth so all will no where I've been!

 

[Daintanee]

Is fa rum the same as Jamaican rum ?

 

[Daintanee]

Well poo it ain't is it. I already ordered my wizard labs stuff! No rum for me;(

 

[Thunderball]

There is no FA at wizard labs correct ?

[Daintanee]

Nope no fa @ WL I just figured HIC meant tfa for above recipe cuz he said Jamaican. Fa has rum though @ eliquid mart oh and cap flavors 2!

 

[Thunderball]

Yep ... FA calls theirs Jamaican rum as well. HIC would prefer the FA of I know him.

Yeah I read some there, a thread on lemon meringue pie. Thus my sample list expanded b 4 I ordered

 

[RyGon]

I just got an email from MFS free shipping all us orders code: "freeship".

 

[Daintanee]

Thanks, that's great! I'll check them out again, but I believe mostly bulk quantities and I'm starting out small. I'll check em out to see

 

[Heabob]

Just an FYI:

E-Liquid Mart has the best deal for FA & CAP, 2.99 for 12ml.

They might have the CAP Vanilla Custard v2 too.

Edit: And I've only used this at <5% BTW.

 

[Daintanee]

They do indeed
