i did this last week and gotta say so far its the best i got for the flavor signature, probably is more of a base than anything as the flavor doesnt really "pop"
I found that same thing happening to me at higher percentages. It's much better at lower percentages to me, I think it's one of the more concentrated flavoring. And I also need to use some type of sweetening with it. I haven't used brown sugar, I will try that! I usually end up using one of my caramels with it and a touch of sweet cream depending on what I'm using it in. It's also very good with FLV Cream & HoneyI tried the FW Butter Pecan a few months back standalone @10%. It was good, but not sweet enough for me. I was also getting what I perceived as a slight bitter pecan shell taste. Adding 1.4% of TPA Brown Sugar solved both minor problems for me.
On my to-do list is to mix it with CAP and/or Tfa VBIC.

Beware with the brown sugar it is pretty strong. At least the FA Brown sugar I have is.I found that same thing happening to me at higher percentages.

Nice but do not use too much.
I use Brown Sugar Extract. Not sure what the diff is but yes it would be a bad coil gunker at higher concentrations.I've noticed the Brown Sugar extra gunks my wicking pretty quickly, even using just one drop per 10 mls or so
Might have to keep going up with the 3 Butterscotch flavors.
Think I've seen some recipes using over 10% even with using just one BS flavor.
And the other typical "thing" that Butterscotch & Caramel flavorings don't have is the same sweetness we get from eating it.
Like Vienna Cream isn't as sweet as TFA Dairy Milk for instance.
IDK if sweeteners/stevia would wreck it or not, but may be OK if adding a drop or 2 in 15ml.
I just prefer adding some "neutral" flavors that have some sweet built in.
Like small amounts FA Marshmallow & FA Meringue.
the TFA BrownSugar .. as Brown sugar is of course a main ingredient to real Butterscotch.I haven't used brown sugar, I will try that!
Did not think about the cream and honey.. will have to give that a try...!I usually end up using one of my caramels with it and a touch of sweet cream depending on what I'm using it in. It's also very good with FLV Cream & Honey

The Brown Sugar also works good with the Caramels IMO.
That makes sense! ... I think of caramel and butterscotch as like ... cousins or something.. lol
lotta good info from everyone so far !
This ripple is really a very good stuff. I've been playing with it in a few recipes and is fantastic.True this, and I've also tried HIC's Buttershots but it's not my thing.
I bought some pre-mixed Buttery Nipple from somewhere a few years back and it was so good, but recently tried to find it again.
That was the one I was trying to clone but think it was discontinued.
Some other flavors I have yet to try mixing in with the BS as helpers:
FW Butter Pecan
FW Butterscotch Ripple
FLV Butterscotch (I don't have this one yet)
Hi there, I wanted to check and see if you've tried FW Butterscotch Ripple yet. I've been experimenting with it, and find it to be one of the greatest flavors in my stash. I've tried mixing it with cookie, cream, cake, and custard, and it is a huge success whatever route I go. FW has really impressed me with this flavorTrue this, and I've also tried HIC's Buttershots but it's not my thing.

Ah, I hear ya.No I haven't tried it yet only cause I've slowed way down on ordering more flavors.
So many flavors I have already not being used kinda bugs me...

I should take your advice. I spent another 75 at BCV. For some reason, I have to do the 75 so I get the free shipping lol.
I have about 300 flavors now. And love mixing things. I've been experimenting with Real Flavors, the ones that have the check marks (at BCV). They're alright. Oatmeal Cookie is different.
Anyway, I'm fully addicted to mixing. There should be a vaping anonymous lol
Wow, you gotta dabble around with them. They are all very high qualityI have FW Butterscotch, Natural butterscotch and Butterscotch Ripple.
Not tired any of them yet....
That, Caps VBIC, and Cereal 27. Like the Tsar BombaWell, I got home and found a bottle of FW BS Ripple in my inventory, figures I'd forget about it.
Looks like I used a bit but don't even remember what I even tried with it.
