I'm hoping the new North American FA site will speed up the distribution process, because it's SURE in need of improvement!

No joke, I ordered Joy immediately after reading HIC's post - didn't even finish reading the thread - and by the time I finished reading the rest of it (at that time), people were already posting that it was out of stock. The fact that it's still out of stock with every U.S. vendor is pretty sad.I'm not! It will just mean 3 months of drooling and trying to find my own bottle.
@HeadInClouds I cannot seem to find a complete list of the recipes that you sell on Gumroad. Is it possible that you could maintain a "master" list somewhere? And if there is a list is it possible to buy ones that aren't currently on the site? I think I read that you limit the total number to 36 due to the design/function of the host. I agree that it is slow to load, but the auto-update email functionality and other features make up for it. Do they offer the option to break the listings down into multiple pages of smaller numbers or categories that would help with load times?
Thank you so much!!! You replied while I was making dinner. I ate and then just finished putting this list as well as the other 38 into a spreadsheet. I seem to have purchased more of the ones that are "rotating" than the set ones currently. However, a bunch of the newer ones are also on my to buy list when I get the money. This list will make it easier for me to keep an eye out for ones I want to buy, lol. Besides, how else would we know if we got them all?There are a few reasons I limit what's listed. Gumroad keeps promising to work on load time, but they keep finding other priorities, so load time is one. I also focus on "seasonal" recipes, like fruity blends for hot weather right now. Less seasonal recipes are usually at the bottom, and they change every few days. All cycle through. I sometimes have new ideas to try on older recipes, and I keep those out of circulation while I try variations or substitute flavors. I keep tabs on TFA's component list to watch for surprise additions of "custard note" ingredients in their updates, and that's easier to keep track of with just 36 up there. Some recipes simply aren't popular, so they're not listed as often (but they never go away forever). So, load time is one big factor, but not the only one.

joy (which is easy to find in the UK by the way)
@HeadInClouds which nicotine you recommended from vaperstek.org sorry I missed that link Please advise?
Thanks a lot my man!!! What about my request for strawberry custard ?I use their VG-base "throat hit" nic: 1 liter: http://www.vaperstek.org/1000-ml-1/
I have nothing yet.Thanks a lot my man!!! What about my request for strawberry custard ?
I am very patient and never lose hopeI have nothing yet.
Yea I hear you. $20 is a bit much and I would say that they don't get a lot of US customers. That's to bad because they keep things stocked up pretty good. When they run out of something it seems they restock in a matter of days.Welll, maybe worth $20 shipping for a big order, but that's a lot for a bottle or two.
FlavourArt will ship to the U.S. from Italy for $4.23 ("simple mail - no tracking") but I have no idea how long that takes these days.
Instead of "I have nothing yet," I should have said, "I have no thick vanilla custard without diacetyl/subs"
That is a challenge nobody has accomplished yet. All use diacetyl, acetoin, acetyl propionyl, and/or diluted butyric acid. If you're willing to vape those ingredients, Capella's Vanilla Custard is the usual starting point, because it contains lots of buttery diacetyl/subs. For now, one must compromise on either flavor or ingredients for that particular flavor profile.
I don't like compromising flavor to avoid diketones, so I find ways to get as-good or BETTER flavor without them. Really good chocolate candy used to require diketones, but with Swiss Bliss and its offshoots, you can make buttery chocolates without diketones. Sweet/rich/creamy coffee flavors all used them; I've made many FA-based creamy coffee recipes that avoid them and taste better. Since butter flavor literally IS diacetyl/subs, cookie butter would seem impossible, but I found a way around it that's much tastier than diacetyl-based versions. Butter toffee is another example; I've found a couple ways to get even better flavor than diketone-based toffees. I've also had some success with no-diketone peanut butter, malt, and cake flavors (just lighter impressions for those 3, so far). Dulce de Leche was another, and Sweet Graham. Quikberry Pink has a milky flavor only FA flavoring can make without diketones. There have been a few others. Nearly 2 years of experimenting has made several supposedly impossible-without-diketone flavor profiles possible - often even tastier.
Several more flavor profiles remain that can't yet be made without diketones, including thick custard. I delight in flavor breakthroughs for people who choose to (or who must) avoid those additives, so I will continue experimenting to find new flavor tricks.
Just placed my 1st order for 6 recipes and I can wait to try. I keep checking my email but still no links(
I almost "misplaced" the four recipes I got a few days ago. All the ones I purchased previously were sent to the email I use for the forum and vape purchases. The last four I paid for with my PayPal account, which is a different email address, so that's where they were sent. They're safe and sound in my recipe book now.
At the exact moment you whispered, I SHOUTED in a new thread......LMAO!!!!I'll just whisper this...
Joy is in stock at BullCity at the moment. shhhhhh. http://www.bullcityvapor.com/joy-fa/

LOL!! Have you tried the Kaktus Melon? My favorite of the six so far.....Mixed up Desert Julius and it reminded me of a movie clip
Not yet I need to load a cart.LOL!! Have you tried the Kaktus Melon? My favorite of the six so far.....
Custom mix's are $52.85 and no returns!!Heya, HIC. What would you charge me to come up with something like a fruit punch that's not Hawaiian Punch sweet. I like fruit but I don't have a sweet tooth. Some good, crisp, citrus with some tropical fruits hell throw some grapes and melons in there. Hell that's hard to describe but a good mix of citrus, melon, apples would be cool... A good mix of fruit that isn't any sweeter than the PG/VG I guess. Oh, and not smelling like feet (INW exotic fruits BARF) or perfume. Any ideas?

hi HIC, does the Grapeade and Purple punch recipe have an option to make it Grape Soda like...I was also going to get the orange pop and red cream recipes you have (and about 7 others LOL) just can't get the gumroad shopping cart to function on the browser i have to use at work...
i'll order later from home...
Barf juice. Seriously bad.That Inawera Exotic Roots is a weird one. I thought I tasted raw potato and ginseng. But it's sure not sweet!
I *do* have a jug of FA Citrus Mix. Smells funky. Maybe I'll mix up some unflavored and add a few drops. Have you used it in anything successfully?...
My best citrus so far is TPA HPNO which is supposed to be a boozy grapefruit and it is *GOOD* and mixes well with tangerine and pineapple and apricot and etc (all Capella's).
So, if you could recommend a fruit punch that is *naturally* sweet it would be really appreciated.
Yeah, I have to say Cap's Tangerine (I gave up on finding a good orange), is especially good. If the FA variants are good and less sweet then I'm going to need to try them out.
