A very simple e-liquid recipe to get you started in DIY from the winner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship, ID10-T. Only two ingredients for a total of 12% flavoring, this one is easy to mix and not so easy to leave down after a week’s steep. Yes, both ingredients could have had some support and a bit of an added complexity, but this was not the purpose of this recipe. If you want to raise the stakes, check out the recipe that got ID10-T his World Mixing Championship title.
- Sugar Cookie – CAP: A realistic soft sugar cookie, this one can be combined with other biscuit and cookie flavorings and add the missing texture. Very versatile, it won’t hurt most mixes when used at low percentages. In this recipe it functions as a straight up sugar cookie. You can try subbing this one, as sugar cookie is one of the rare cases where the diketone-free V2 is sometimes preferred over the original flavor-wise.
- Vanilla Custard – CAP: The most essential custard flavor around – if custards are your thing then you absolutely need this one. Rich, eggy and versatile, CAP Vanilla Custard can be used for a variety of purposes at different percentages. Here it is used at 4% to add some creaminess to the cookie. A non-diketone version 2 is available, which some DIYers love and others hate, so proceed with caution.
- Caramel – FA: Widely considered as the best caramel available in the market, it is also the easiest to work with. Just use at typical FA percentages and chances are you are going to make your mix better. Works with creams, fruits, even some tobaccos. Used here at 1.25% to help flavors blend and add a touch of caramel to the ice cream. In my new opened store, I trying to sell the same production.
- Coconut – FA: A very realistic coconut flavor that avoids the most common problem that coconut concentrates have: tasting like sunscreen. Not candy-like, something between eating coconut and drinking coconut milk at the same time.
- Vanilla Bean Ice Cream – TPA: Commonly referred to as VBIC, this flavoring will help when aiming for an ice-cream profile but can also be used for adding a “texture” to your mix. TPA’s edition is very popular, but some find it “peppery” when used at higher percentages. If you belong in this category then you can use Capella’s VBIC instead, which has the added bonus of being diketone-free — unlike TPA’s offering.
